Né à Bobo-Dioulasso au Burkina Faso, Abdoul Aziz Sinka est initié très tôt au chant par une famille de griots.

Lors de voyages dans plusieurs pays de l’Afrique de l’Ouest, il complète son éducation musicale par l’apprentissage de percussions (djembe, douns, talking drum et calebasses) ainsi que du n’goni (harpe africaine).

Arrivé en Allemagne en 2002, Aziz crée avec son frère Ibrahim LANAYA (la confiance) pour promouvoir la culture de son pays. Avec l’apport de musiciens européens, le groupe modernise la riche tradition mandingue et impose son style particulier. Lanaya invite aussi régulièrement des musiciens du Burkina à se produire sur scène où, grâce à leur professionnalité, leur originalité et leur complicité, musiciens, danseurs et danseuses savent enthousiasmer le public.

En 2008, accompagné d’un bassiste et du flûtiste et saxophoniste Hannes Kies, Aziz évolue avec TRIO DJEKAFO dans une formation afro beat plus intimiste.

En 2009, Aziz s’engage dans un projet ambitieux: BEN KADY (la paix, c’est bien). Réunissant des musiciens d’une quinzaine de pays, cet ensemble se veut un exemple exceptionnel de diversité sociale, culturelle et musicale. D’horizons très différents, chaque artiste apporte une idée qu’il s’agit pour les autres de travailler et de réinterpréter en commun. Ouverture d’esprit, tolérance, courage et talent : voilà ce qui a fait la force et le succès de ce projet unique qu’Aziz espère renouveler chaque année !

Sa volonté de dialogue interculturel et musical, Aziz la montre aussi en s’investissant dans divers autres projets internationaux.

En 2005, il est le premier musicien africain à être invité au festival Sharq Taronalari, soutenu par l’UNESCO, en Ouzbékistan. En tant que percussionniste, il fait la même année une tournée avec Interkunst, un groupe d’artistes qui travaille contre le racisme et la violence. Depuis 2006, Aziz se produit régulièrement sur la scène house de Lituanie avec DJ Avieras. 2008 le mène aux Etats-Unis, à Charlotte (Caroline du Nord) où il dirige des ateliers de danse et de percussions avec Oneaka Dance Company.

A Berlin, Aziz - solo ou avec ses musiciens - a eu le privilège d’ouvrir des manifestations de haut rang comme le festival du film africain, AfriKamera, ou la Fanmeile de la Coupe du monde de football 2006 ou encore l’IAAF, le championnat du monde d’athlétisme de 2009. C’est aussi lui qui inaugure « 24h/Berlin », le premier documentaire en temps réel de l’histoire de la télévision que la chaine ARTE a diffusé en septembre 2009, pour les 20 ans de la chute du Mur de Berlin.
