Arkam Asylum was a UK cyberpunk band, formed in 1999, and signed to Wasp Factory Recordings. The band, known as AA to fans, formed in the seaside town of Brighton around the same time as bands like Freudstein, Psychophile, and Swarf, all of whom were signed to Wasp Factory Recordings. AA's members now live in different places across Europe, but the band lives on in the form of an experimental DJ crew known as Arkasai, which plays and releases material very occasionally.
