Cy, Marc and Peter started out as a teenage garage band with musical influences ranging from glam rock, metal to funk, soul and jazz. Now they have reached a new level: Phoenix!

"We are continually developing our style to create something new. Hence the title Phoenix," says singer and bassist Cy. "That also applies when you compare it to our last record, which was way more blues rock-oriented. The new sound is different, more vibrant, and the arrangements are very modern. But it's definitely a Stone Diamond record."

GRAND((Ø))SIGNAL is the new collaboration between Jacky Meurisse and Tcheleskov Ivanovitch. The name of the project was derived from their respective projects SIGNAL AOUT 42 and GRANDCHAOS. Both artists started composing music in the early 1980s when Belgium burst onto the scene and made waves with its signature drum machine and synth-driven music. Jacky Meurisse has been a prolific artist and music producer throughout the eighties with his projects LE PARK, AMNESIA and PLEASURE GAME. Hits such as ‘Le Dormeur’ and ‘Litchies’ climbed English and French charts and have remained popular club songs to this day. With his main project SIGNAL AOUT 42 (SA42), Jacky has travelled across the world (Brazil, Germany, Italy, Hungary to name a few).
