Henk Van Der Neut, Richard Emans, Rob Van Zomeren, Robert van der Tol and Robin van Vliet form Media in the mid-Eighties. They are signed by Sony Records in 1985. Dutch magazines like 'Oor' ('Ear') and 'Vinyl' compare their new wave music to the works of The Blue Nile, Talking Heads en Talk Talk.
They release three singles, one of which was this one, 'Magazines'. None of their singles have any commercial success. In 1987 the band breaks up.
