Formed after meeting at a garage punk club night called ‘Bomp’ hosted at venues in St Helier, Jersey Channel Islands. The weekly event made a huge impact on the islands growing music scene in the same vein as the influential Dirty Water Club.

After two years of perfecting the live show come the end of 2005, the band relocated to Brighton and began touring persistently throughout the UK and Europe gaining a steady fan base in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Sweden, and Switzerland.

With half a dozen singles and two 5 track EP's delivered, also two split singles and various songs released on a number of compilations earning a somewhat cult status, second effort Repulsion Seminar EP received positive reviews and demonstrated a maturing sound and vision.

Debut single ‘V.O.L.T.A.I.R.E.’ was produced by James Aparicio (Nick Cave, Mogwai) and mixed/mastered by Robert Harder (Brian Eno, The Slits) and was released on The Playground Records in October 2010, later to be re-released.

Latest single 'Close Your Eyes' was produced by Ali Gavan (Former member of The Electric Soft Parade) and released on the groups own label Movement-2 Records. The band are currently based in Jersey and Brighton UK with a first studio album released in 2019/2025.

A French DJ and multidisciplinary artist, Baka Bakqa pushes the boundaries of the alternative and underground scene. His sets intertwine the dark and enchanting realms of new wave and post-punk in a fusion of genres such as dark italo and body disco. It’s an immersive dive where mechanical rhythms collide with visual and sound narratives; a unique experience where the intensity of the performance blends with an obscure yet unifying celebration.

With over 8,000 listens, his latest mix “DIE IN THE DISCO #16,” released last April on the Yami Spechie YouTube channel, is making waves and confirms his status as a reference in the genre.

As the founder of the Parisian queer collective Gouter de Nuit, Baka Bakqa has multiplied collaborations, sharing iconic stages such as the Olympia in Paris alongside TR/ST. For the past seven years, he has brought together a constellation of artists and groups like Curses, Vox Low, and Minuit Machine.

An insubordinate visionary, Baka Bakqa imposes a unique style that defies the conventions of clubbing, creating events where music, art, and performance converge to celebrate boldness and freedom of expression. These nights attract an eclectic community of clubbers, ravers, and concertgoers, all in search of authenticity and new experiences in inclusive spaces and LGBTQIA+ contexts.
