IODI

Paraguayan band started by brothers Jörn Wenger and Dirk Wenger, who were of German descent. Jörn and Dirk, born in Paraguay but of German origin, started playing in the beat / psychedelic band The Rabbits (10), who released a very rare EP in 1969. After the group split, Jörn and Dirk traveled to Germany, where they studied arts and received musical lessons from Karlheinz Stockhausen. The two brothers had built their own homemade studio in Asunción (Jodi Studios, Asunción) and they spent hours and hours recording songs and experimenting to create their own sound effects (echo, reverb, etc). They called their music "Spontaneous Pop". After their psychedelic rock period, they became a pop rock band and went on to be popular in Argentina & other parts of South America in the 1970s.
