After releasing a rough demo version of Million Miles in their Disco Punk EP in January, Germany’s pioneering Korean-German synth-punk duo, MINOH, is set to launch the official recording of their rave single on the 30th of June.

MINOH is a Korean-German synth-punk duo based in Aachen, Germany comprising Jamin on vocals and guitars and Guido on vocals and bass. Though the project may be young, both artists have been cutting
their teeth in punk, new wave, hardcore and metal bands for the past 20 years. What started as a solo project in Jamin’s home studio during the pandemic became a duo when her boyfriend, Guido, joined her on bass and rearranged her songs into disco-punk versions after a local punk band was searching for a support band.

Since then, MINOH has become well-known in the touring circuits in Aachen and Belgium as they record
and prepare for the launch of their debut album. The first release was a demo EP released on Bandcamp,
which received rave reviews from Ox- Magazine. Following the release of the final mix of Million Miles,
MINOH plans to release a string of singles throughout the year ahead of their debut LP.
