Moonanga was born from a fusion between world and electronic music. It was during a meeting that Maud Cavalade and Sébastien Cheppe decided to get involved with their new project. Animated by the same passion, they distyle an innovative and enthralling style. Coming from a blend of flavors. Guitar and accordion will be incorporated on electro, nu-cumbia, global bass, balkan beat and acid techno rhythms.
