The MOVING TONES

About Me

.*FILE UNDER: DECONSTRUCTED ODD DITTIES TO FLOAT AWAY WITH*
"The MOVING TONES" is a new band comprising vital members of the Belgo-Dutch alternative musical scene.

Frank VAN DER KOOIJ (Hugh Hopper Band, NDIO)
Michel DELVILLE (The Wrong Object, TZGIV)
Catherine SMET (Michael Moore, Anja Kowalski)
Guy SEGERS (Univers Zero, Present, The Morton Fork Gang, X-Legged Sally)
Dirk WACHTELAER (Galileo's Left Wing, Toshinori Kondo, Bill Laswell)

They team up to produce an unusual blend of avant-pop, jazz and RIO whose sheer diversity is quite riveting.
This unusual line-up mirror’s the band’s fearless artistic leaps and perversely stubborn bravery as well as their willingness to create a repertoire that combines original compositions with some very unusual, deconstructed arrangements of such rock luminaries as Pink Floyd, Radiohead, and David Bowie."
- Eve Stoningmoth
Sinds enkele maanden is Guy Segers eindelijk terug actief als muzikant met een gloednieuwe jazzfusiongroep, The Moving Tones. Guy Segers kwam onlangs in contact met Michel Delville, van de Belgische groep The Wrong Object. Guy Segers en Michel Delville hebben een internationale groep opgericht, The Moving Tones. Er waren al twee optredens en het is de bedoeling dat er in November een kleine clubtournee volgt in België.
“Het repertoire houdt het midden tussen eigenzinnige covers van The Velvet Underground, Radiohead, Wheater Report en Pink Floyd, en anderzijds eigen composities waarin Jazz en Rock vermengd worden met wat elektronica. Het is onze bedoeling om in de toekomst telkens te werken met gastmuzikanten, waaronder Ed Mann, percussionist-toetsenist van Frank Zappa, met wie Michel al gespeeld heeft.”
- Georges Tonla Briquet – Brussel Deze Week - Belgium
I just heard the samplers of The Moving Tones and they are making very interesting music. I am really glad that Guy Segers is still active as an adventurer musician.

You sound awesome here, this is hot shit.
