About Me

Minke are Rod Devonshire and Gareth Lynn.We met in Brighton in 2000, and have been collaborating since 2001.Our music is the result of far too many late nights spent trawling our extensive music collections for samples, taking in easy listening, strange pop, charity shop bargains, electronic oddness and other obscure audio nuggets.Since Rod moved away from Brighton in 2002, we've been collaborating by swapping files over the internet, and between us our musical sack now positively bulges.
