The members of Los Bastoneros—András Schmidt, Emanuel Cristea, and Emmanuel Deaconu—each brought their individual musical backgrounds to the group. Growing up in Romania, they were influenced by the rich tapestry of Eastern European electronic music, which laid the foundation for their future collaborations.

Before forming Los Bastoneros, each member honed their skills in various local clubs and underground venues, immersing themselves in the evolving electronic music scene of Bucharest.
