The Aikiu - 'Just Can't Sleep' from Phunk Promotion on Vimeo.

Found in the Kitsune Maison Compilation 10

The Aikiu was born in Paris when Alex Aikiu teamed up with his friends Julien Vichnievsky and Cedric Pilooski. These gentlemen are no strangers to the music scene, they have teamed up in the past with another member of their musical group called, D*I*R*T*Y . The Aikiu's sound can be described as shiny breed of new wave infested pop, influenced by Roxy Music, David Bowie, and a hint of Chic. Their first single, “Just can’t sleep” was released on June 14th 2010, and according to their Facebook page, the band is in the studio recording some new songs with some psychedelic/ funk/ punk influences.

Alex Aikiu — Julien Vichnievsky — Nabé Chan — Christiane Prince — Cédric Pilooski
