Baka Beyond's sound is a fusion of music influenced by the Baka people of Cameroon, African rhythms and traditional Celtic tunes. A combination of soul-stirring West African traditional rhythms, song and dance of the Baka, with Celtic folk harmonies and singing ?with powerful percussion section, rhythmic guitar and fiery fiddle??.
Each musician has contributed their own style to the band. Baka Beyond is a collaborative music process, learned from the Baka people.
?If there has to be a definition of world music, this is it,? said BBC?s Andy Kershaw.
Other reviewers have said:
?It was impossible to resist the relentlessly upbeat nature of the music?
?The party atmosphere is irrepressible? Evening Standard
?If you are not dancing, maybe you should have someone check your pulse.?
