Ektomorf was founded in 1993 in Mezőkovácsháza, Hungary, a small city near the Romanian border, by Zoltán "Zoli/Zotya" Farkas.

The band is completed by Ábris Hagya (lead guitar), Csaba Zahorán (bass) and Ákos Kobela (drums).

Due to his Romani background, Farkas saw himself confronted with racism and prejudices, which is why the band had to put years of work into its international career.

Their breakthrough came when Ektomorf started collaboration with Danish producer Tue Madsen in 2003.
