Gender: Male

Description: One of the first internationally successful bands of the Zeuhl genre during the French indie boom in the late 1970's. Eskaton took Magma "Kohntarkosz" influences, mixed in prog, lots of electronics and increasingly elements of "punky" cold wave. This unique concoction, fronted by two female vocalists, made for a distinctive sound that has remained fresh and vital. Members were Alain Blesing, Amara Konig, Amara Tahir, André Bernardi, Denis Levasseur, Eric Guillaume, Gérard Konig, Gilles Rozenberg, Jean-Philippe Gallet, Marc Rozenberg, Patrick Lemercier, Paule Kleynnaert, Philippe Zarka, Xavier Deraymond
