David Eubank, protestant de 58 ans et ancien membre des forces spéciales américaines, est engagé depuis 25 ans auprès des peuples chrétiens de Birmanie. Depuis 2016, son organisation des Free Burma Rangers intervient régulièrement en Irak et en Syrie, où nous l’avons suivi lors de sa dernière mission, tenant son fusil d’une main, la Bible de l’autre.

«Les hommes de Daech et moi, on a un point en commun. Ils sont prêts à mourir pour leur dieu. Comme moi. Simplement, eux, ils ont choisi le mauvais.» Assis dans la fraîcheur bienvenue d’un Range Rover blindé, fusil d’assaut coincé contre le fauteuil passager, David Eubank s’interrompt quelques instants pour répondre au talkie-walkie grésillant accroché au pare-soleil. Derrière les épaisses vitres poussiéreuses du véhicule défilent des steppes tapissées de champs de blé au milieu desquels se dressent, picorant frénétiquement le sol, les pompes à tête de cheval des forages pétroliers du Kurdistan syrien.

Nous passons Hassaké en direction de Deir ez-Zor, ville à une centaine de kilomètres du dernier bastion de l’Etat islamique où, quelques semaines auparavant, les Forces démocratiques syriennes livraient l’ultime bataille contre l’organisation terroriste. «Ça a l’air calme comme ça, mais il ne faut pas s’y tromper, reprend David en soulevant l’accoudoir pour y attraper une canette de soda. Depuis qu’on est arrivés, il y a un mois, le rythme des attentats et des accrochages a augmenté dans la région.»

Ancien béret vert

A 58 ans, cet ancien militaire a la voix de ceux que l’on écoute avec attention lorsqu’il parle, des muscles tendus comme la corde d’un arc et des traits qui inspirent naturellement le respect. Baghouz, David y était. Ainsi qu’à Raqqa et Mossoul où, aux côtés des soldats kurdes et irakiens, il apporta le soutien de son organisation, les Free Burma Rangers (FBR). Engagé depuis vingt-deux ans auprès des différents peuples chrétiens en Birmanie, cet ancien ranger du second bataillon et ancien béret vert de l’armée américaine a décidé en 2016 d’exporter son action au Proche et au Moyen-Orient. «Nous nous sommes d’abord rendus à Sinjar, en Irak, après avoir reçu l’e-mail d’un ami nous demandant de venir en aide aux Yézidis, raconte Eubank. A partir de ce moment, nous avons accompagné la bataille contre l’Etat islamique.»

A Mossoul, ce vétéran passe près de neuf mois sur la ligne de front à combattre dans cet entrelacs meurtrier de venelles et de maisons piégées par les hommes de Daech. Avec lui, sa femme Karen, ses deux filles Sahale et Suuzanne, son fils Peter et une dizaine de membres des FBR, composée de rangers birmans et de volontaires venus du monde entier. «Pendant que j’étais sur le front pour me battre, ils apportaient un soutien médical et logistique aux soldats et aux civils.»

Installée à Chiang Mai, dans le nord de la Thaïlande où David passa son enfance avec ses deux parents missionnaires chrétiens, l’ONG Free Burma Rangers compte plus de 450 rangers bénévoles, une quinzaine d’employés à plein temps et opère sur un budget d’environ 2 millions de dollars par an - exclusivement rassemblés via des donations privées. «Lorsque nous avons besoin de fonds pour une opération, en Birmanie ou ailleurs, nous prions Jésus et espérons que le Seigneur nous réponde, ajoute ce Texan de naissance sans rentrer dans plus de détails. Mais j’ai aussi la chance d’avoir des amis qui ont beaucoup d’argent.»

«Quand j’ai débuté ma carrière de militaire, je me suis posé cette question : est-ce possible d’être chrétien tout en étant quelqu’un qui prend des vies ? J’ai prié. Et j’ai réalisé que l’on pouvait servir Jésus en étant un bon soldat»

David Eubank

Chrétien convaincu, David assure voir la main de Dieu dans ses choix et dans les événements qui ponctuent sa vie. «Je n’aime pas galvauder son nom quand je raconte mon histoire, poursuit celui qui ne se réclame d’aucune obédience particulière, mais un disciple de Jésus. Mais je sais que c’est Lui qui guide mon cœur.» Et de poursuivre: «Quand j’ai débuté ma carrière de militaire, je me suis posé cette question: est-ce possible d’être chrétien tout en étant quelqu’un qui prend des vies? J’ai prié. Et j’ai réalisé que l’on pouvait servir Jésus en étant un bon soldat.»

Sur la ligne de front de Mossoul, alors qu’il apporte un soutien logistique aux hommes de l’armée irakienne, il se retrouve nez à nez avec quatre combattants de Daech qui ouvrent le feu sur eux. L’un des soldats est touché six fois, le casque de David reçoit deux autres balles dans son casque en kevlar. «Tout s’est passé en un instant, raconte-t-il. Je me suis relevé et mis à couvert alors qu’ils continuaient de nous arroser. J’ai visé, j’ai tiré. Le premier est tombé, puis le deuxième, puis le troisième… et le quatrième a pris la fuite.» L’Evangile selon saint Colt. «Ce jour-là, Jésus m’a sauvé la vie. Et celle du soldat blessé aussi car il a survécu à ses blessures.»

Une enfance dans la jungle

Intervention divine ou non, c’est aussi sa formation d’élite qui l’a tiré de cette situation et de toutes celles qu’il a connues auparavant. Pour ce seul garçon d’une fratrie de quatre, éduqué par un vétéran de la guerre de Corée et une chanteuse de Broadway, l’entraînement a débuté dès l’enfance passée à courir dans la jungle thaïlandaise aux côtés des tribus chrétiennes. «J’ai appris à tirer dès l’âge de 5 ans, se souvient Eubank. J’étais boy-scout, et j’ai passé le plus clair de mon temps avec des soldats américains engagés dans la guerre du Vietnam, ou avec des peuples tribaux. Ça m’a appris que plus on en sait, moins on a besoin de choses.»

Les années passent et il est alors temps de rentrer aux Etats-Unis. 1979, direction son Texas natal et Texas A & M, l’une des plus prestigieuses universités militaires du pays où il devient cadet. Engagé en 1983 dans l’infanterie, il intègre le 2nd Ranger Battalion puis le 1st Special Forces Group des bérets verts. Son premier théâtre d’opérations? L’Amérique latine, en pleine guerre des narcos. «J’étais de retour dans la jungle, s’amuse Eubank. C’était comme la Thaïlande, mais avec des gens qui parlent espagnol.» Puis il rencontre sa femme, Karen, qu’il épouse sur une plage de Malibu, en Californie, une semaine avant de repartir en Thaïlande où le couple fonde les Free Burma Rangers en 1997 - la junte birmane repousse alors l’armée vers la frontière birmano-thaïlandaise.

«Ce voyage, cette mission, c’est surtout pour créer des liens avec la communauté chrétienne et essayer de consolider les remparts face à Daech»

David Eubank

Le talkie-walkie se remet à grésiller, interrompant Eubank dans son récit: «Changement de programme: nous avons trouvé un endroit où dormir à Hassaké finalement. Et demain, nous irons au camp d’al-Hol.» Le convoi de sept véhicules se dirige alors vers le centre-ville où les FBR ont rendez-vous avec la communauté chrétienne et les responsables de l’organisation de la Croix syriaque, une ONG locale qui tente notamment de construire un centre pour enfants. «L’idée est de construire un parc de jeux pour qu’ils puissent avoir un endroit où se retrouver, et ne pas traîner n’importe où», explique Malek Jakoud Hanna, responsable de la Croix syriaque pour la ville d’Hassaké lors d’une visite d’un terrain vague d’où nous apercevons les dômes d’une église assyrienne. «Les combats sont terminés, mais l’emprise idéologique de l’Etat islamique est toujours très forte ici. Particulièrement sur les jeunes.»

Plus tard dans la soirée, David et Karen donneront 25.000 dollars pour aider à la construction de ce centre pour enfants. Une transaction en espèces sonnantes et trébuchantes faite devant témoins. Une semaine plus tôt, c’est une liasse de 7000 dollars que le FBR remettait à la petite communauté chrétienne de Raqqa pour la reconstruction d’une église détruite. En un peu moins de deux mois sur place, David aura distribué près de 80 000 dollars.

«Ce voyage, cette mission, c’est surtout pour créer des liens avec la communauté et essayer de consolider les remparts face à Daech, résume Eubank. Il y avait 200 000 chrétiens dans cette zone avant, maintenant ils seraient moins de 60 000. Alors on fait ce que l’on peut, mais ce n’est pas assez. Ils ont besoin d’un lion pour les aider face à l’islamisme, et nous, nous sommes une souris.»

Conscient que, depuis la chute de Baghouz, l’attention du monde et des médias sur la situation en Syrie s’est, - comme d’habitude -, considérablement résorbée, et que les combats ne sont finalement que l’écume de la guerre, David a souhaité retourner sur le terrain pour poursuivre son action. Pour lutter contre les courants de fond qui, eux, sont toujours en œuvre.

Alors qu’une lumière vespérale vient caresser les toits écorchés de la ville d’Hassaké, les rangers préparent le camp pour la nuit. Les Birmans cuisinent dans la petite cour du bâtiment que la Croix syriaque leur a prêté pour la nuit tandis que les enfants de David font leurs devoirs sur des canapés. Les autres volontaires s’offrent un moment de repos, consultent leurs e-mails et écoutent de la musique.

«Tu n’as pas besoin de croire en Dieu pour voir les bonnes actions qu’ils font. Je voulais faire de l’humanitaire, et je suis tombé sur eux»

Adam, un soldat dano-américain

Beaucoup sont chrétiens, d’autres non. C’est le cas d’Adam, un Dano-Américain membre de l’armée danoise qui a pris une année de congé pour venir aider les Free Burma Rangers. «Tu n’as pas besoin de croire en Dieu pour voir les bonnes actions qu’ils font, témoigne ce soldat de 28 ans. Je voulais faire de l’humanitaire, et je suis tombé sur eux. Ce n’est pas une énorme machine, mais justement: ils sont plus libres et plus efficaces.»

Chaque matin, le FBR débute la journée par les dévotions. David, Karen ou un ranger y prononce un sermon avant de demander s’il y a des requêtes de prières. «Aujourd’hui, nous allons dans un endroit plein de petits démons, s’amuse Eubank pour conclure la prière, debout au centre de la pièce où la vingtaine de membres du FBR est rassemblée. Ce sont les femmes et les enfants des combattants de Daech. Je sais qu’ils ne sont pas sympathiques, qu’ils nous détestent. Mais nous n’avons pas à être comme eux. Et les enfants sont innocents.»

Venir en aide aux réfugiés

Nous filons vers le camp d’al-Hol, près de la frontière irakienne, où 73.000 personnes vivent dans un champ de tentes blanches surplombées par des réservoirs d’eau en plastique rouge. David, qui souhaite se concentrer sur les orphelins, négocie l’accès à l’intérieur du camp avec les autorités kurdes. «Ailleurs, les gens seraient ravis d’avoir de l’aide en plus, commente-t-il en s’amusant. Mais ici, c’est toujours compliqué. Ils nous disent de leur donner l’argent et de les laisser faire.» Une heure plus tard, l’accès est autorisé.

A l’intérieur d’une tente plombée par la chaleur, les rangers rencontrent les orphelins, leur donnent des gâteaux, montent une pièce de théâtre et procurent des fournitures aux responsables du centre. L’un des Birmans, guitare à la main, entonne Take Me Home, Country Roads, de John Denver. Parmi les enfants, des étrangers. Et une Française: Amina Amedjar. Elle a 12 ans, vient d’Angers et a été emmenée en Syrie par sa mère, Rahma Amedjar, tuée dans les combats à Baghouz. En 2009, Rahma Amedjar protestait avec Réseau éducation sans frontières contre l’expulsion au Maroc de son mari (et père d’Amina), dénonçant «la condamnation de toute une famille», sept ans avant d’emmener sa fille en Syrie. A ce jour, les grands-parents et la tante d’Amina manquent à l’appel en France. «Nous n’arrivons pas à les retrouver», explique un membre de l’association de l’antenne du Maine-et-Loire.

De retour aux véhicules garés dans les allées du camp, les rangers se font interpeller par plusieurs femmes vêtues de niqab. «On nous laisse là sans nouvelles de nos maris», déplore l’une d’entre elle. «Il fait chaud, on n’a pas assez à boire et à manger», ajoute une autre. «On ne sait pas ce qu’on va devenir», témoigne une dernière. «Je me demande si elles se souciaient de ça pour les esclaves yézidies de leurs maris», commente, amer, l’un des rangers tout en continuant de distribuer des bouteilles d’eau en arborant un sourire forcé.

«Le souci, c’est que, dans ces camps, une sorte de mafia s’est organisée, analyse David. Des femmes nous ont raconté qu’elles ne pouvaient pas retirer leur niqab par peur de représailles, d’autres sont toujours fidèles à l’idéologie de Daech.» Un témoignage qui rejoint celui d’une autre Française, Anissa Bruneau, que nous avions retrouvé en février dernier lors du siège de Baghouz. Toujours enfermée dans le camp de Roj, elle et sa famille en France tentent toujours d’obtenir son retour dans l’Hexagone.

Sur la question du retour éventuel des combattants et de leurs familles dans les pays d’origines, David Eubank avoue ne pas avoir d’opinion tranchée. «Mais l’Europe doit agir, observe le vétéran. En gardant ces gens dans cette situation, on laisse l’idéologie de Daech végéter et incuber. On sait ce qu’il se passe lorsque l’on abandonne des populations après les conflits.»

Deux jours plus tard, près de Qamichli, le FBR rencontre Elizabeth Koriya, responsable de l’Association culturelle syriaque et très proche de l’administration kurde. Au détour de la conversation surgissent l’Europe et la France. «On ne compte plus sur eux pour l’avenir, assène cette femme d’une soixantaine d’années. On a rencontré des membres du Parlement européen de passage dans la région, ils n’ont apporté aucune réponse. C’était juste de la communication.»

«Aujourd’hui, l’Europe est trop faible face à l’islamisme. Il n’y a que les Etats-Unis qui peuvent nous aider»

Elizabeth Koriya, responsable de l’Association culturelle syriaque

Et d’ajouter sans transition: «L’histoire se répète. Le Sayfo (le génocide assyrien de 1915 par l’Empire ottoman), c’était il y a un siècle. Ils ont juste recommencé. Et aujourd’hui, l’Europe est trop faible face à l’islamisme. Il n’y a que les Etats-Unis qui peuvent nous aider.»

Et David Eubank de renchérir: «C’est terrifiant de voir l’inertie des pays occidentaux. Ils ne se rendent pas compte de ce qui se passe ici.» Le FBR quittait la Syrie peu de temps après pour retourner en Thaïlande et s’occuper d’une nouvelle session de formation de rangers. «Je ne sais pas quand nous reviendrons en Syrie, admet Eubank. Dans un an, sans doute, si rien de grave n’arrive avant.»

Avant de le quitter, quelques jours après l’opération de libération des otages au Bénin ayant coûté la vie aux soldats français Cédric de Pierrepont et Alain Bertoncello, nous lui faisons part de la situation alarmante au Sahel qui voit grandir le danger islamiste. «Peut-être que nous interviendrons là-bas un jour, répond Eubank. Si Dieu le veut.»

It Seems Like Nothing Changes

Paul Cussen

June 1919

In June 1919 the Cork Furniture Store, which had moved from Merchant Street to a new premises on Winthrop Street, took over London House on Saint Patrick’s Street and expanded to sell ladies clothes. The firm was owned by William Roche from Killavullen.

The Ford building on the marina covered a floor area of 330,000 square feet, just over 7.5 acres. The company employed 1,800 workers. John O’Neill, who joined Ford in 1919 and later became Managing Director of the plant (in 1932), described the plant as being ‘ahead of anything else in Europe’ in terms of layout and equipment.

In late June the lease on the Cork National Shell Factory was taken over from the Corporation of Cork by Richard Woodhead, acting on behalf of the Ford Company. In the 1930s it was leased to the Lee Motor Company.

Cork hurlers changed from blue jerseys with a large saffron C across the chest after British forces raided the County Board offices in Cook Street and confiscate their kits.

In June 1919 Michael Collins was made president of the IRB (Irish Republician Brotherhood).

Terence MacSwiney led an abortive raid to gain arms and ammunition at the Killeagh air ship base, a facility of the Royal Naval Air Service.

The 2nd Battalion of the Royal Munster Fusiliers remained in France until June 1919 when they returned to England.

From January to June 198 British soldiers in Ireland died: 118 from influenza/pneumonia, 55 died from other natural causes, 6 died from firearms accidents, 15 from accidents not involving firearms and 4 from suicide.

Martin Doyle, originally from New Ross in Wexford, received his Victoria Cross from King George V at Buckingham Palace. In October 1920 he joined the IRA in East Clare acting as an intelligence officer.

"The Vicious Circle" gathered at the Algonquin for the first time as the result of a practical joke carried out by theatrical press agent John Peter Toohey. It is only later, with their numbers growing, that they move to the now famous round table.

1 June

de Valera embarks on his tour of the USA with three aims:

· to ask for official recognition of the Irish Republic,

· to obtain a loan to finance the work of the new government, and

· to secure the support of the American people for the republic

2 June

New York City night watchman William Boehner is the only fatality as eight bombs detonate in eight cities across America. Each of the bombs is delivered with several copies of a pink flyer, titled "Plain Words", that read:

War, Class war, and you were the first to wage it under the cover of the powerful institutions you call order, in the darkness of your laws. There will have to be bloodshed; we will not dodge; there will have to be murder: we will kill, because it is necessary; there will have to be destruction; we will destroy to rid the world of your tyrannical institutions.

The bombings are carried out by Italian anarchist followers of Luigi Galleani.

3 June

Private Peter Asher dies of pneumonia at the military hospital in Buttevant.

Today’s Manchester Guardian review of Chekov’s The Seagull says:

“The Seagull” is a low-spirited play, and the sharpness of tragedy in it is blunted by Tchekov’s (sic) satire and irrelevances of other kinds. Tchekov, as we know from his stories, is a genial soul, and one missed somehow the feeling of sincerity in the climax to-day.

6 June

June Huband (who used the nom de plume Helen Forrester) is born in Hoylake on Merseyside (d.2011)

The United States Senate pass a resolution asking for the delegation appointed by Dáil Éireann to be given a hearing at the Paris Peace Conference, and expressing sympathy with the “aspirations of the Irish people for a government of their own choice”.

“Yesterday, I was in America, and I’m the first man in Europe ever to say that.” – Arthur Brown

16 June

Fourteen IRA volunteers from the Kilbrittain company ambush a six-man British Army-RIC patrol at Rathclarin, Co. Cork and seize 5 rifles, one revolver and 200 rounds of ammunition. Only 2 of the IRA men are armed for the ambush. Volunteer Mick O’Neill is injured in the raid which was not sanctioned by Brigade HQ.

96) BATTALION OF SAINTS „Death - R - Us” CD Taang! Records 1995 - dokument zawierający oryginalne nagrania Battalion Of Saints: debiutancki maksisingiel “Fighting Boys” (1982) i album “Second Coming” (1984) - wydane na winylu we własnej oficynie Nutrons, a także dwa nowe nagrania z 1995 roku – „Hell’s Around The Next Corner” i „Thru With You” oraz bonusowe dwa numery znane wcześniej tylko ze składanek. Z wczesnej dyskografii brak tu tylko singla „Second Coming” (1983) wydanego nieopatrznie dla Mystic. Założony w 1981 roku w San Diego Battalion Of Saints to klasycy amerykańskiego hardcore i crossover, a w swych początkach mocno inspirowani drugą falą brytyjskiego punk rock spod znaku Discharge i G.B.H., a także muzyką metalową (grali m.in. cover Motorhead „Ace Of Spades”). Trzon zespołu stanowili: George Anthony (śpiew) i Chris Smith (gitara) – obaj grający wcześniej w formacji Neutrons oraz Dennis Frame (bass) i Ted Olson (perkusja). Po wydaniu świetnego LP „Second Coming” i trasie po USA z zespołu odszedł Smith - autor większości muzyki – i dołączył do formacji Kraut. Od tego momentu działalność Battalion Of Saints gwałtownie się załamała i nabrała tragicznego charakteru. Smith wkrótce zmarł w nie wyjaśnionych do końca okolicznościach (prawdopodobnie będąc pod wpływem narkotyków poślizgnął się w łazience i rozbił głowę), zaraz po nim zmarli też nowi członkowie ekipy Battalion Of Saints – Dave Astor (samobójstwo), Donny Diaz (AIDS), a także basista Berry Farwell (?). Zespół zyskujący powoli uznanie nagle więc przestał istnieć w 1985 roku. George Anthony reaktywował później dwukrotnie kapelę jako Battalion Of Saints A.D. z nowymi ludźmi (m.in. Terry ‘Bones’ Roberts ex-Discharge, Broken Bones), a w 1996 ukazał się też nowy album „Cuts”, a w 2015 roku nowy singiel „Battalion Of Saints”.

Timeline of the Tijuana Rock Music Scene 1980-2016 (Part 1)

1977 - This year is mentioned -according to Jesús Hernández de Mercado Negro- as the beginning of the end of the classic era of rock in Tijuana, as many of the musicians became part of versatile music bands, in addition to the appearance of disco music as the dominant genre.

1980 - In a text from band Black Market, the definition of Tixuanarkia appears as follows: “… The term Tixuanarkia, actually indicates an abbreviation, to define the alternative movement of punk in all its diversifications (classical punk, anarcho-punk, hardcore, straight edge, and other more sophisticated and idealistic) that arise in the Tijuana border from 1978 … ”.

1980 - The first Book Fair is held on Ave. Revolución. Since then, there have been invited bands and artists such as Sol Azul, Umbral, Almalafa, Carla Morrison, Total Tan Tan and many more, in addition to the multiple presentations of books by authors related to music, as well as fanzine encounters and independent publications about music.

1980 -Promoter of the punk rock movement in Tijuana, Luis Güereña was in charge of bringing groups like Dead Kennedys, Adolescents, and Black Flag at the beginning of the eighties, using venues such as the Teatro de la UABC, Arena Tijuana 72, Casa De La Cultura and Baghdad De Noche. He made his first foray into music in the late eighties, as a percussionist and singer of the group Chantaje. Later he was part of the group No, which with the appearance of his first record changed his name to Tijuana No!, one of the most important bands in the border region. He was part of the movement of pioneer bands like Los Negativos, Solucion Mortal and later Black Market - also known as 1369 and Missil, now Mercado Negro -, among others. Some of these bands became legends not only locally, but transcended the national and international underground scene. All this made possible the visits of The Illegals, Battalion Of Saints, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, and others, as well as the explosion of the fanzines, documentaries, books and an analysis of the emerging scene appeared. as an enemy to the repressive political and police system.

1981 - Metal singer Elena Coker begins her career. In an interview for rockeaa.com , she says “… one day a boy who already died told me, girl, would you like to sing in my rock band?. It was like the answer to all my prayers!, this was in 1981. Hence, I say that I was one of the first metal chicks who walked the earth … ”. During her career, she has been part of the Sacro, Shock, Arlequin, Kharma, Legacy, La Píedra and MexZepp bands.

1982 - The Federal Government opens Centro Cultural Tijuana. In addition to the presence of multiple figures of art and culture, the center has hosted presentations at its facilities of Black Market, Sidestepper, Los De Abajo, Celso Piña and many more, besides hosting events such as Ciclo Rock, Nortec 2000, Tijuana Interzona Festival, Tijuana Progresivo, Entijuanarte and several more.

1983 - 91X appears on the frequencies of San Diego / Tijuana (broadcasting in principle from our city), marking an entire generation by announcing itself as “The Cutting Edge Of Rock”. They consider important to Tijuana, wherein 1987, they organized the MexFest with the presence of bands like Oingo Bongo, Squeeze and others at the Hipodromo of Agua Caliente.

1984 - With the entrance of the vocalist Mauricio Beltrán, the band Riff Raff changes its name to Armagedón. With a tendency towards metal and hard rock, in 1988, they would participate in the contest organized by BMG Ariola, Rock En Tu Idioma. They would record their first official album in 1992, but they would achieve greater success with the release of Ecologia on Sarzo Music in 1995. After an interruption in their career in 1997, they would return to the stage in 2003, launching in 2008 their third album, El Imperio Del Mal and since then they remain as one of the most important bands ever.

1984 - Solucion Mortal participates in the International Punk and Hardcore Festival that lasted two days held at the LA Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles, CA. They appear in the influential Maximum Rock And Roll fanzine, as well as participating in the Eat Me compilation in 1983 and the World Class Punk in 1984.

1985 - 85 is considered as “the year zero” of the Alternative Culture in Tijuana. Fanzines appear (Psychocandy, Pus, El Punk No Es Moda, Feos y Curiosos), and it is where is officially said that the history of electronic music begins in Tijuana, where the restlessness of an entire generation begins to be satiated by making music. Vandana, Synthesis, L'Ochestra, and Avant-Garde, along with others, are mentioned as pioneers, gaining local interest at the beginning, while later projects such as Laplace, Bostich, Arterfakto, and Ford Proco, among others, achieved national and international acclaim. The scene has transcended in various stages, from a scene marked by synthpop and new wave, to industrial and cyber. From rave, dance, and trance to Nortec, minimal tech and house.

1985 - The debut album of La Cruz, Rock a la Media Noche is released on BMG Ariola label, produced by Carlos W. Martos (Barón Rojo). Video clips of all the songs on the album would be made.

1986 - The Mexican Institute of Radio (IMER) sets up a station in Tijuana, which has the name of Estereo Frontera. Rock has a place with programs such as Variedad Estéreo and Onda Rockera in the beginning and in 1988 it had a following with support to the local scene, including presenting concerts outside the station. Later appears (even within the different changes of the station) El Arca De Neon -which at some point, came to be transmitted simultaneously at the KCR station at San Diego State University with the support of Dave Stampone-. Over time, multiple programs appear and disappear, such as Ritmos De Ciudad, Hecho En Tijuana, Al Otro Lado Del Silencio and more. Already in the present decade, the station changes its name to Fusion 102.5, in addition to being the house of programs like Invasion Local, Static Radio and others.

1986 - The documentary about the punk rock scene in Tijuana, Feos y Curiosos is presented, directed by Sergio Ortíz and based on an investigation of Dr. José Manuel Valenzuela of the Colegio De La Frontera Norte. In this same time, the video Sobreviviendo of Mercado Negro appears.

1986 - Synthesis appears, being the first band to use MIDI in live concerts and later recordings.

1987 - After playing in several bands, Julio “Benny Rotten” Tamayo integrates with a group of friends after other experiences to put together a band that many consider the most important in the history of punk/hardcore in the country: Especimen. The band would achieve memorable concerts and several demos that reached the ears of the entire country, prompting in 1995 to settle in Mexico City. Benny Rotten stays with the band and the rest of the then members return to the city of Tijuana for personal projects. Especimen also were part of acclaimed theatrical plays like Ni Cercas Ni Distantes, Monologo a 2 Voces and Alicia Detras De La Pantalla, the last two winning the important Oscar Liera Award. Especimen continues its trajectory evolving with its alternative hardcore, continuing with important recordings and with it’s traditional Slam Tour which has arrived in different occasions in the city.
