Though originally categorized as a trip hop group, they quickly expanded their sound to the point where they could no longer be described as a singular genre, but rather encompass alternative, electronica, electropop, rock, and a mixture of others. \n\nThe band originally called themselves Hoover, but later changed their name to Hooverphonic after discovering other groups were already using the Hoover name and to avoid any legal issues with the vacuum cleaner company.\n\nSince their formation, Hooverphonic's lineup consisted of bassist Alex Callier, guitarist Raymond Geerts, and various vocalists including Liesje Sadonius (1996–1997), Geike Arnaert (1997–2008, 2020–present), Noémie Wolfs (2010–2015), and Luka Cruysberghs (2018–2020).\n\n\"2Wicky\" is based on a loop from Isaac Hayes' cover of the Burt Bacharach and Hal David penned \"Walk On By,\" and also contains a sample from \"Le Voile d'Orphée\" performed by Pierre Henry.\n\nhttps://hooverphonic.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
