1)Akcent was founded by Adrian Claudiu Sînă in 1999, along with female vocalist Ramona Barta. At that time, Adrian worked as a DJ at Radio contact. Their debut album Senzatzia, released in 2000 as cassette only, was electro-pop. It contained the song Ultima Vara (Last summer), which was a summer hit in Romania. Then Ramona left, and 3 nice-looking boys took her place: Sorin Brotnei, Mihai Gruia and Marius Nedelcu. Akcent had become a boys band. The second album În culori was released in Romania on January 10, 2002 and was certified gold within the 3 first weeks. It included the single "Ţi-am promis".
In 2003, they released their third album 100 BPM, featuring the songs "Buchet de trandafiri" (bouquet of roses) and "Suflet pereche" (soulmate), which were quite successful. Then in 2004 came the album Poveste de viață (Story of a life), with a radical change of style.
Following the steps of O-zone, they gained international recognition with their European hit "Kylie" (#21 in France, also a small hit in North America), which was the English version of the song "Dragoste de inchiriat". Followed their first album in English French Kiss With Kylie, composed with Gigi d'Agostino, and released in Europe on August 23, 2006. Then came the single Jokero which competed to represent Romania at ESC 2006, but was not selected. Then, they released a best of album entitled Primul Capitol and started an international tour. Follow-up single "French Kiss" (English version of 9 mai) was a cover of Stela Enache's "Extemporal la dirigenţie".
2007: King of Disco was the name of their new album. 2 singles were taken from this album: "King of Disco" (an homage to Madonna, in the current disco-pop revival style) and "Red Bikini".
2008: Marius Nedelcu left the project to start a solo career. Corneliu Ulici, formerly from boys band Bliss, took his place, but left after only 6 months. Only one single was released this year: "Umbrela ta".
2009: Akcent released their new album Fără lacrimi (Without Tears), with the now famous accordion hooks. The international version of the album was renamed True Believers. Edward Maya contributed to the singles "Stay With Me" and "That's My Name", which charted in whole Europe.

Adrian Sână started composing alone new songs for the project, in parallel with him new solo career under the name Adrian Sina. New singles "Love Stoned" and "My Passion" had a lot of success, especially in Arab countries, Pakistan and India.
In September 2013, the band split after a quarrel, leaving Sînă as its only member.According to Adrian, he felt betrayed by the other members; Mihai and Sorin.But according to Mihai and Sorin the issue was a bit different. According to them, the issue was not about the money, as fans might think or Adrian told others. It was all about the behavior of Adrian towards them which changed simultaneously. According to them, parting ways is not an issue but Adrian shouldn't use the name Akcent, as it was a collective property of the group.After disbandment Mihai and Sorin founded their own band, "TWO" and a record label "Mango Music". After the band split Akcent released two singles "Lacrimi Drug" and "Boracay".

Akcent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I’m drowning in tears
Come and help me please
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I was so crazy all the time I made you cry
You walked away and never said goodbye
I guess I lost you, now you’re gone
I try to hide the pain but all I see is you
How can I do it, I don’t have a clue
On and on, on and on
I guess I lost you, now you’re gone
I remember the prison of all memories
And I’m drowning in tears
Come and help me please
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I remember the voice that is calling my name
And I know that someday you will feel the same
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I was so crazy all the time I made you cry
You walked away and never said goodbye
On and on, on and on
I guess I lost you, now you’re gone
I try to hide the pain but all I see is you
How can I do it, I don’t have a clue
On and on, on and on
I guess I lost you, now you’re gone
I remember the prison of all memories
And I’m drowning in tears
Come and help me please
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I remember the voice that is calling my name
And I know that someday you will feel the same
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I remember the prison of all memories
And I’m drowning in tears
Come and help me please
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down
I remember the voice that is calling my name
And I know that someday you will feel the same
Stay with me, stay with me baby
When the lights go down

When the lights go down
Once again, I am left alone in the dark with my pain
