etoman

Eto were formed in 1999 by two founder members of the successful Liverpool based band Jubjub - Joel and Jay. The dance revolution of the 90s - spearheaded by Liverpool's 'Cream' nightclub for which Jay's cousin Paul Bleasdale was a founder DJ - inspired a change to their earlier music. Joel was fueled with ideas and set the concept for the band as Jay searched the universe for the intergalactic samples and drum loops that now form the basis to the sound of eto. A solid bass was needed to ground the spacey synths that were taking eto to new levels - enter Matt and the grooves to guide the way. A background in percussion work for dance clubs around the UK made Andy the ideal candidate to bring funky fills to the loony loops. The final piece of the jigsaw was added in May 2002. Jamie came with his big beats and took his place at the drums to complete this formidable line-up. Did I just say formidable? Yes formidable! www.etomusic.com
