A synergy between electronic beats and improvised music. That is what the members of State of Monc had in mind when they founded this quintet in 1998. The group looks for both danceable melodies and complex harmonic and rhythmical patterns with original compositions. State of Monc, with a strength of guitar, trumpet, bass, drums and electronics, already made it into the finals of the Grote Prijs van Nederland and played at several festivals. Last year the group presented the album Hand 2 Mouth.
