Singer Xavier Boyer and bassist Pedro Resende formed Parisian bug out jazz group Tahiti 80 in 1993 as students at the University of Rouen, bonding on the strength of their divided up affinity for the music of the British Invasion era. A handful of demos followed earlier the duo recruited guitarist Mederic Gontier in 1994, and with the addition of drummer Sylvain Marchand a year by and by, the lineup was fill in. Adopting their name from a token tee shirt apt go Boyer's father-God during a 1980 vacation to the Polynesian islands, Tahiti 80 issued their debut EP 20 Minutes in 1996. The I.S.A.A.C. EP followed, and in mid-2000 Minty Fresh issued the band's number one full-length sweat, Puzzle. The Heartbeat Remixes was issued that fall with Extra Pieces following in early 2001. The nobble and artistical sound of Wallpaper for the Soul appeared in 2002.
