TWO

The guys were co-founders of boy-band Akcent – one of Romania’s most beloved bands in the past decade. The song That’s my name produced also by Edward Maya was the group’s biggest international success and helped them reaffirm their position in their fans’ hearts. The beginnings of the band are still marked by the no.1 hit Ti-am promis (I promised to you), produced by Marius Moga, which earned them a Double Platinum Disc, when the group sold over 160.000 albums. There were hits like Buchet de trandafiri (Bouquet of roses), Poveste de viata (Life story – produced by Tataee from BUG Mafia - one of the biggets Rap band from Romania ) that confirmed the fact that the band wasn’t just another short-lived boy band, but a real success on the Romanian music market. Later, in 2005 the boys crossed the Romanian borders when their song Kylie became no. 1 hit in the Netherlands, after being played by a national radio station – Slam FM. They were one step away from the international success. The band’s English songs were starting to be played on the worldwide radio stations, and Youtube reaffirmed their fame: My Passion has over 40 million views, and Stay with me over 20 million views. Among their many notable events, they sang for the Queen of Netherlands alongside Tiesto within an extremely important event. They had over 2000 shows across the world, beside Romania in countries such as Germany, USA, Canada, Malaysia, Dubai, India, Russia, Spain, Italy, France, Sweeden, Poland, etc. They were also on the famous French national TV channel M6, in Paris, along side Craig David, T.A.T.U. and Texas. They sang on the same stage with Enrique Iglesias and others big international artists. Their record includes 4 Golden Discs and a Platinum Disc in Romania, a Golden Disc in France, Russia and Poland, but most important of them all are the millions of fans from around the world. However, Mihai Gruia and Sorin Brotnei took it to the next level, which may be the most important step in a worldwide famous artist: they co-founded Mango Records, one of the most important record labels in Romania. Mihai and Sorin now benefit by their experience and professionalism in order to coach young new artists, becoming managers, producers and impresarios altogether. The debut song of the new band called TWO – formed by Sorin and Mihai – is Spre Soare (To the Sun) a song that keeps the sound of their former band – Akcent, which is a very important part of the lives of the two. It is produces by Mihai and Sorin, in collaboration with Dorian Oswin, and the feminine voice belongs to one of the many artists that Mango Records represents – Bianca.

The single Bora Bora – produced in Ibiza in a writing song session – is proof of that.
