Originally, Ze'ev Nechama and Tamir Kalinski were joined by drummer/guitarist/keyboardist Yoed Nevo, and they composed their first album, "Ethnix", which was released in June 1990. The album leaned towards [[Rock music|rock]], with noticeable musical influence from the band "Moskva", but the band soon began expanding in other directions, specifically combining "ethnic" ([[Mizrahi music|oriental]]) and Western, which came to define the character of the band and is reflected in its name. The name was given by Roni Bar'on and Dror Kalisky, the manager of the band, on the grounds that the previous name wasn't "intriguing" enough. |
