With an early line-up of De Blonde, D’Hespeel, Gruyaert and Kenneth Mertens (bass), de portables built their reputation in Brugian and Ghent clubs over a three-year period from 1996. Mertens left the group in 1999 and was replaced by Lafontaine the following year. Moulded into a professional outfit by music label owner Dave Driesmans after he offered to act as the group’s manager, and with their musical potential enhanced by the hands-on creativity of vj and music video director Hendrik Dacquin, de portables achieved Belgian mainstream success in late 1999 with their first single, “A Waltz”. Gaining international popularity over the course of the next year, they toured extensively until 2003, then retreated to the recording studio.
