Marc Moulin, the jazz musician, playwright, humorist and radio producer, who represented Belgium in the 1980 Eurovision Song Contest as part of Telex, passed away on Friday 26 September of cancer, at the age of 66.

"So leaves on tiptoe a great mind, funny and refined, a brilliant "touch-a-tout" who took pleasure to satisfy all his curiosities, while always taking care to generously share his passion for arts and popular culture" is written on the artist's site. The Belgian jazz pianist, composer and producer, chose to leave quietly in a private funeral, while his death was announced officially days later.

In 1980 Telex participated in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Euro-vision. Their ambition to finish last failed when Portugal awarded Belgium with 10 points. In the end, Telex finished 17th on 19 participants. Nevertheless, the Euro-vision act became one of the highlights in the Eurovision Song Contest archive of the last 50 years. Moulin also worked as a producer with other artists such as Philip Catherine, Lio, Alain Chamfort and Sparks. As a musician and composer, Moulin was still very active until last year. His last album called "I am you" was released in January 2007 and also last year, he still performed regularly, partner site Belgovision.com reports.
