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

C'est superbe de retrouver cet album qui a marqué mon enfance avec une énergie et une originalité qui restent intactes .. inspirant pour ceux qui le découvre de nos jours . Merci merci merci !

Art Zoyd yes to me one of the most impressive and creative post modern band; they gather all the influences I love in one project. If I had to leave to a distant planet with a few things sure I would take one album of Art Zoyd. Cannot live without this band with me.

You can say that again!! Amen.

@John Appleseed For sure.

@David Sanderson I don't know you but chances are that if we had to meet on that distant planet I would immediately recognize you , taking that opportunity to baste in the crowd, getting up on your soapbox, spreading around your wise and practical good words. Yet no one out there would pay any attention. Nor would they even understand your fairly prosaïc terrestrian wisdom. :-)
