Probably Hungary's most popular disco(beat) group, Neoton Família (known as Neoton in Spain, Newton (briefly) in West Germany, Neoton Familie in East Germany and Newton Family in the rest of the world) had major success in Eastern Europe, South America and Asia from the mid-70s to the late 80s. The band was founded in 1965 by László Pásztor and Lajos Galácz, studying Economy in Budapest, on the occasion for entering the school's annual Santa Claus music contest.
