RASKIN began in the fall of 2002 in Matamoros, Mexico (across the border from Brownsville, Texas the southmost city in the state), the purpose back then was to make a tribute song with a comedic theme for a friend that the guys in the band consider a character. The ideas flowed so well, that they continued to share thoughts, songs, insights and experiences. With a lot of words but no music, in late spring / early summer of 2003, they started to mix their ideas with music created with only a sequencer and a guitar, this has defined their sound, which the band calls: "Electronic music made to rock".
