Banco de Gaia is an electronic music band from England, formed by Toby Marks (born 1964, South London) in 1991.
In 1978 Marks began his musical career, as a drummer in a heavy metal band.
Marks moved to Portugal in 1986, and played Beatles music for tourists. He first delved into electronic music in 1989, when he bought a digital sampler. The first tune he recorded on it was called „Maxwell House“.
The music of Banco de Gaia is best categorized as ambient dub, but Marks works to cross genres, often using Arabic and Middle Eastern samples against a bass heavy reggae, rock, or trance rhythm to produce deeply textured tracks that progress layer upon layer.
In 1997 Banco De Gaia put together a five piece band that included Ted Duggan (drums) and Ashley Hopkins (bass). The band reduced in number to just Marks, Duggan and Hopkins in 1999, and then just Marks and Duggan from 2000 until 2003; when Marks went back to being a solo artist.

Hi Toby..... I just wanted to thank you for giving me so many hours of sheer joy..... But most of all I want to say how deeply moved I am, every time I hear gray over gray...... A masterpiece..... Melody and lyrics are just perfect...... And as I go on my merry way to the other world, i sincerely hope this song will accompany me...... Thank you from the depth of my heart :-)

Celestine! Boski saksofon! Kiedyś Banco nie lubiłem, ale widać musiałem dojrzeć do takiej muzyki. Wdepnąłem w to poprzez soundtrack do Pi czyli Drippy. ;)
