IC 434 was founded in 1994 by Geert de Wilde (Pangean Dreams, ex-Vomito Negro) as probably the first Belgian so-called 'dark electro' band and was named after the Horsehead Nebula, a beautiful galactic cloud in the impressive constellation of Orion. Impressed by one of the concerts in 1996, Dirk Ivens (ABC, THE KLINIK, DIVE and SONAR) decided to offer IC 434 a contract on his label DAFT (BODY) RECORDS. IC 434 released three albums on this label between 1996 and 2002. Read more on Last.fm
