Like other members of the Rock in Opposition movement, Art Zoyd fuses progressive rock and jazz with contemporary classical music. Like fellow RIO member Univers Zero, they are also influenced by French Zeuhl bands such as Magma. Today, Art Zoyd is best described as an electronic music group and works primarily for film and ballet. Gérard Hourbette assures the artistic direction while working occasionally with other composers/performers: Kasper T. Toeplitz, Carl Faia, André Serre-Milan, etc.
Art Zoyd is also a studio, based in Valenciennes, for the research, development and creation of new works by invited composers, as well as a number of pedagogical activities most notably, from 2005, a unique approach for teaching electro-acoustic composition led by Carl Faia and André Serre-Milan.
Gérard Hourbette passed away on 4 May 2018 aged 64. The band has announced Monique Hourbette-Vialadieu will replace him as artistic director of the studios

I love this french band too...an example how unique the psychedelic seventies music was and how inventive the french artists created their masterworks...it has some of the pink floyd spirit and a little canterburian humor,plenty of traditional french folk influences,yes,even classic parts...good choirs and great instrumental works,mostly i like their Chevrons album,but in fact all are worth to collect and hear ! Hard to find this days,they are still mostly unknown and i really dont know why they dont get more attention...its brilliant and joyful ! I would be amazed to find their vinyls,its the stuff i want to keep and never let go,hahahaaa ;)
