In 1999 Marco Calvo met Carlos Ruiz in a Club in Madrid and gave him a tape with 3 songs he wrote under the name DIOXYDE to check his opinion as reputated EBM DJ. Carlos was impressed and not much later he even joined the band, helping on the production and playing live keyboards at live shows. In 2000 Johan Van Roy from Suicide Commando discovered the band and immediately offered them a spot on the "deCODEr 1" compilation released on COde, a small tape/cd label Johan set up shortly before.
