Linear Draft was founded in September, 1995 in Belgrade by Borko and Rastko. Srba joined later on, during 1996. Finally, Istok became part of the band somewhere during the Student Protest of 1996/97. Come late 1997, the band decided to go public and present its work. It started with the radio. The first single to hit the charts was "Jazzy Fields", which had a big success in Belgrade. Reaching the first places of some of Belgrade's radio charts (B92, Studio B, Radio Politika), this jazzy-house tune with very nice and recognizable theme expanded the circle of their listeners and sympathizers.

Linear Draft haven't released any albums yet, but they are well-known and people like to listen to their works. "Jazzy Fields" was followed by an TV interview on Studio B, and many appearances on the radio stations later on. The first gig - live act was held in club Plima, where we worked with Boris Petrovic and DJ Milan Drca, but the real thing happened in club Industria (in association with Kozmik DJs, Vlada Janjic and Gordan Paunovic) on 24.04.1998. Following were appearances at club Plima with DJ Milan Drca and two more, solo at Urba Bar (Barutana).

In July 1998, Srba moved to New Zealand, so now he's considered to be a distant (modem) member.

The music they make is not strictly bound to genres. It is, as they see it, a way of expressing thoughts and emotions, and is limited only by that.

Gig equipment:

• PCs
