The Klinik:
Pioneer Belgian EBM/Industrial band. Consisted of Marc Verhaegen and Dirk Ivens, original line-up also included Erik Van Wonterghem. Dirk Ivens left in 1990 to form Dive. Klinik continued in the solo person of Marc Verhaegen. In December 2003, the duo reunited for a one-shot celebrative performance at the BIM Festival in Belgium. The huge success and overwhelming requests from fans led to the appearance of The Klinik in the original line up at the Wave Gotik Treffen in Leipzig the following year. Other festival appearances followed. Since 2009, The Klinik is back as a full time band. In 2013 the album "Eat Your Heart Out" was released.

Dive:
Dive is the solo project of Dirk Ivens, frontman of Belgian EBM prime-movers The Klinik. His music is an exciting mix of industrial, EBM, noise and experimental sounds.

Absolute Body Control:
Absolute Body Control was formed early 1980 by Dirk Ivens (synth and voice) and joined by Mark De Jonghe (synths) and Veerle De Schepper (backing vocals). After the single "Is There An Exit?", which became a local culthit, Mark left the band, but his place was already taken by Eric Van Wonterghem. Absolute Body Control was one of the first active belgian electronic bands on stage and the next three years they appeared on many compilations worldwide. In 1984, Dirk became the founder of 'The klinik' and is active as 'Dive' and 'Sonar'. Eric has his own project 'Monolith', but is also involved in the 'Sonar' project.
