The duo changed into a boyband when Sînă introduced Marius Nedelcu, Mihai Gruia and Sorin Brotnei to the group. The album did not do well and Barta split from Sînă.

The duo also released a studio album titled Senzatzia ( The Sensation). The song " Ultima vara" ("The last summer") reached the top-twenty of many airplay charts. The two sent their debut single to nationwide mainstream radio stations as early as 1999. At that point the group consisted of just him and singer Ramona Barta.

The climax of the group's career was the international release of their breakthrough single "Kylie", the English version of their internal hit " Dragoste de inchiriat" ("Love for rent"). They came to prominence once with the release of their hit single " Ți-am promis". Soon after, Sînă brought Marius Nedelcu, Mihai Gruia and Sorin Brotnei into the group, changing it from a duo to a boyband. Except for the first track, " Ultima vara", which received some airplay, the album was a commercial failure and the band disbanded.

They released their debut album Senzatzia in 2000. Their first single " Nu-mi pasă de nimeni" ("I don't care about anyone") received positive reactions from critics and became the reason Catalin Muraru signed them to Roton in 1999. The group was created by Adrian Sînă, and Ramona Barta. Their name originated as a wordplay on accent. Akcent ( Romanian pronunciation: ) is a Romanian dance pop group whose members sing in Romanian, English and Spanish.
