Algemene info over dit album:
Aka Moon's 11th album is their original music for the dancetheatre production "In Real Time". This piece, created by Anne-Teresa De Keersmaeker's dance company "Rosas", the TG Stan theatre company and Aka Moon, is a true work of interactive creation. The material was developed by the three disciplines together, with each influencing the others. And the music particularly has a decisive role in the way the dance was developed, with a real learning process around Aka Moon's rhythmic patterns being necessary. But Aka Moon's music is also influenced by the collaboration dance-theatre, and it manifests a clarity which makes the music on this CD more accessible, and opens it up to a wider audience. The line-up on the CD also goes back "to basics", in comparison with the band's last albums, with the trio here augmented only by piano and keyboards. During the piece, Aka Moon was on-stage practically all the time, playing their music amongst the dancers and actors, as full "actors" themselves in the piece.
The CD also includes a bonus track of Aka Moon's contribution to Rosa's previous piece "I Said I", with guest musicians Marc Ducret (Guitar) and Eric Legnini (Keyboards). This 10-minute piece is a masterpiece in the band's work.
