Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
In 2001 the was a 3-member punkrock-fusionist indie band formed under , which was pioneered by ioHann Garcia. The members were on vocals and bass, on guitars, keyboards and synths, on drums. around 2003, before the release of their album, Loqui got abducted by aliens and never returned. Bach accidentally froze himself in his fathers cryo chamber in their secret lab, and ioHann thought it would be best to leave him there until he was able to recruit new members for a new band. It wasn't until late 2005 when ioHann met (bass) and (guitars) in a cosplay event who at that time had their own band which played all-jpop covers. a few weeks later he spotted a pretty readhead girl under huge studio headphones working with a Behringer UMX25 midi controller connected to her laptop at a local coffee shop, oblivious to her surroundings. she joined ioHann's band instantly after a little jamming session on a public piano in a mall, thus the final member (keyboard/synths). After defrosting Bach from his cryo chamber, the was finally formed. they play a wide range of genres from all kinds of jazz, to punk rock, and reggae. They also consistently play j-music as part of their performances. They are currently handled by just until they're maintaining their status. They have collaborated with indie reggae singer (formerly known as Fleamarket Froggy) and currently planning to collaboration tracks with from (and Dj ioHann's favorite featured artist in all of his albums).
after officially releasing the band's works by 2007, forums and fans developed a shortened name for the band known as .
