Cheesy love songs and fuzzy outbursts :)

Who wants to make perfect music. If you saw Stator live or heard one of their Albums, you know that perfection is not their maxim. Everything´s meaningless, but the simple love to melodies and volume. You may say, the dynamic which results is psychedelic. But they resist beeing locked up in somekind of boarders of taboos and genre titles. They quote, discreet. And you´ll hear where their roots are. In stony deserts, and paltry landscapes.

Chain DLK
'’you have to be a little out there to relate to m1nk in the first place but who wants to hang out with people who aren’t’ '
Dave Franklin

'’As debut albums go it is nothing short of a triumph’ '
Dancing About Architecture
'’pays homage to many genres, while sounding like none directly. This is for the musically adventurous; those bored by cliche pop and formula radio fare’'

'’Erika Bach’s voice slides into your ears like a sharpened stiletto’'
Paul Kerr, Devil's Best Tuna
'’just stunning. It’s like one of those magic eye pictures that move as you look at them - there’s nothing like it’' Josie Jo Show
’wraps you around like a  seductive poison’’’
Nel Mertens
'’a ghost appearance of David Bowie , a melted Einstürenze Neubauten and an underwater version of the Virgin Prunes’ '
Jan Willem Broek
‘carries both the mysteriousness of a stranger who lets her telling look cross with yours - and the passionate joy of a hunter driven by lust‘
Nel Mertens
Erika Bach (a.k.a. Lola Demo) comes from a more garage rock background with some electronic influences in her productions. Her haunting voice and edgy trash ethic sometimes reminds us of a less hopeful Patti Smith.
Barry Snaith (a.k.a. The Inconsistent Jukebox) moves effortlessly between genres, his productions encompassing everything from acerbic alt - pop and industrial soundscapes to French cabaret and dubstep.
Together as m1nk they make dark, gothic, electronic soundscapes. They are very distinctive, yet hard to define. Barry's influences include Bernard Herrmann, David Lynch, Francis Bacon, Robert Fripp, Captain Beefheart and Dali. Erika is inspired by stormy days, a little pain and ugliness, human kindness and bewilderment.
