69 Danguje (literally: In the 69th heaven) is a Lithuanian vocal pop music girl group founded in 2005. The founder of the group was producer . In May 2024 three members separated and established a new group, à  eà ¡kÃÂs ("ferrets"). , legally, only N.PareigytÃÂ-Rukaitienàand E. Bà ¾eskas are the members of "69 Danguje".
In 2024, 69 danguje unveiled a new song and video "Aà ¡ praà ¡au". In the same year, the band held a concert "Velnià ¡kas greitis 20 metà ³" to celebrate their 20th year of activity at Kaunas à ½algiris Arena.
In May 2024 the group announced that Nijolàis leaving the group and the group will be called à  eà ¡kÃÂs ("ferrets"), because Bà ¾eskas owns the trademark 69 Danguje and the group had not been cooperating with Bà ¾eskas for ten years, and his lawyers notified the group that they can no longer use their old name. In TV interviews later that year it was revealed that the departure of Nijolàwas due to a conflict between her and the rest of the group.
à  eà ¡kÃÂs claimed that for about 10 years Bà ¾eskas did not work with the group and they filed a request to the State Patent Office for cancellation of the registration of the trademark 69 DANGUJE due to non-use. The trademark was registered in June 2007 and was to be valid until August 2026. In July 2025 the Patent Office granted the cancellation request. However Bà ¾eskas intended to appeal the decision.
In August 2024 a 85 min. documentary 69 ià ¡paà ¾intis ("69 Confession") about the group was premiered.
On August 13, 2024, after a long break in releases of new songs, à  eà ¡kÃÂs presented a new song, "Paleidom" ("Let It Go"). In preparation for their concert tour, in November 2024 they presented the second new song, "NebesugrÃ¯à ¡iu" ("I Won't Come Back") In August 2025 they presented their new song and videoclip "Kol dar vasara" ["While it is still summer"]. The music video is made with a Japanese flavor, and the song is "about love, relationships and their fragility and value".
Bà ¾eskas recalls that in their first small studio there was an inscription on the wall "9 danguje" ("in the 9th heaven") and I thought that if we would add "6" in front, then we would be even higher.
The group took the name à  eà ¡kÃÂs ("ferrets"), because it was their nickname already.
The initial setup was Karina, Nijolàand Ingrida. Later Goda joined, a former member of another girl group, . Since May 2024, Goda, Karina, and Ingrida are members of the group à  eà ¡kÃÂs.
