Biography
Eskaton was a French zeuhl band formed in Paris in 1970, first as Eskaton Kommandkestra. Singing in French rather than the Kobaian of *Magma*, the group built its sound on the twin vocals of Paule Kleynnaert and Amara Tahir, the bass of André Bernardi and dense keyboards. Their albums '4 Visions', recorded in 1979, 'Ardeur' in 1980 and 'Fiction' in 1983 made them one of the leading bands of the zeuhl movement after *Magma*.
