The Indonesian band Discus was formed in 1996 by Iwan Hasan (lead vocals, guitar, harpguitar, Balinese
rindik, electronic percussion), Anto Praboe (wind instruments), Eko Partitur (violin and electronics), Fadhil
Indra (keyboards, vocals), Hayunaji (drums and electronic percussion), Kiki Caloh (bass), Krisna Prameswara
(keyboards), and Nonnie (lead vocals). The group established themselves as a progressive rock band with
strong influences in jazz, avant-garde classical, and traditional Indonesian music. The band released their
debut album, 1st, in 1999, which found the band sounding alternately like everything from Weather Report
to Pink Floyd, recording heavy metal, pop, prog rock, and dissonant avant-garde numbers.
