Après le come-back en scène, Sixun est retourné en studio ! Dix ans après "Nouvelle vague", leur dernier album studio, et trois ans après le mémorable concert d'anniversaire à la Cigale – dont témoigne un DVD – les six de Sixun remettent le couvert. Contrairement à ce qui arrive avec ce genre de réunion quand elle n'est dictée que par des visées commerciales, cette reformation ne sent pas le réchauffé. Bien au contraire, la joie des retrouvailles est évidente, et le plus célèbre des groupes de fusion français n'a rien perdu de l'énergie communicative qui a fait son succès. Mieux encore, sans rien perdre de son esprit initial, la musique de Sixun a gagné en profondeur, en épaisseur et en couleurs, en s'enrichissant des expériences diverses de ses cinq membres originaux.
Lunatic Taxi est le sixième album studio de Sixun, enregistré et mixé en novembre et décembre 1994 par James Farber au studio Power Station, New-York.
The French band Sixun was founded in 1984.(Sixun comes from Six (Fr: six) and 'un' (one). This refers to the number of band members (six) from around the world that play together as a unit. The core of the band, Paco Sery (drums, percussion), Jean-Pierre Como (keyboards), Alain Debiossat (saxophone), Louis Winsberg (guitar) and Michel Alibo (Bass) remained unchanged over the years. The group began his recording career with Nuit Blanche in 1985, followed in 1987 by Pygmies and Explore in 1988. The polyrhythmic work of the band is very important and significant influences of the multicultural musical origins of the band members in particular, African and Caribbean can be found. The band is often compared to Weather Report, the major influence of Sixun.
