Akim Funk Buddha: Urban Tea Ceremony includes music and ceremoneous performances inspired from Japan, Brazil, and Bali, combined with elements of Hip Hop culture. Akim presents his singular "urban indigenous expression" which integrates Throat singing, Beat Boxing, Balanese Body-Popping, and various combinations of global grooves and rhythms never heard on the same stage before. The performance is followed by a DJ.

"If dance is indeed a weapon, Akim Funk Buddha is some kind of delightful drunken master." - The New York Sun
