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.
