m1nk

M1nk (pronounced 'em one en kay') is a duo based in Manchester, UK and Athens, Greece. 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 ethicsometimes 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. For fans of Savages, Portishead, David Lynch, The Bad Seeds, Sigur Ros, Radiohead, Alt J.
