Banco de Gaia is an English electronic music project, formed in 1989 by Toby Marks (born 1964, South London, England).

Marks states that he works in "world music-infused dance and ambient/chill-out styles." Influenced by the acid house and ambient house music of the 1980s, and jazz and progressive rock bands such as Pink Floyd, Marks' music incorporates elements of rock, reggae, ambient, worldbeat, jazz, and electronica.
