The album Queen of Noise, whose title refers to a quote by John Peel, who once lovingly called MANIA D. the „Queens Of Noise“, is an hypnotic work without retro ornaments or false sentimentality. Stylistically between Punk, Wave, Electro and experiments, Bettina Koester combines influences from The Velvet Underground, Grace Jones, DAF and Kraftwerk into an intense, highly personal and total piece of art. Queen of Noise is an artful concentrate of life experiences of the artist, who works as a filmmaker and author as well – and it is above all, a reflected analysis of the present and the music scene.
