("complex" in Finnish) are Mike Not and pHinn, two ex-suicide candidates from Tampere (often called "Finland's Manchester"), who ride in a red Lada through the gloomy streets of their rainy post-industrial town; the home of ice hockey fanatics, world's last working Lenin Museum and countless sex shops. .. They started making music together in 2002. Kompleksi's first 7" single, '(I Ain't No) Lovechild'/'Moscow 1980' was released in May 2005 on Finnish Lal Lal Lal label. They have also appeared on compilations of Bunker (NL), White Label Music (UK), Mate Recordings (UK), 267 Lattajjaa (FIN) and pHinnMilk (FIN).

Mike Not (star sign: Scorpio - keyboards, production, programming, sound engineering, mixing) has produced music since the early 90s under such monikers as ..Noise Production... Furthermore, he has produced and engineered records for such artists as the hip hop posse Nuera and their Finnish chart-busting Petri Nygård project, also the gothrock band Suruaika. .. pHinn (star sign: Leo - vocals, keyboards) has since 1996 maintained a Website called ..pHinnWeb.. on Finnish electronic, experimental and leftfield music. His previous act was called ..Club Telex Noise Ensemble... .. Kompleksi also has such "hang-around members" as ..Citizen Omega.., ..Polytron.., ..Unidentified Sound Objects.. and ..Sonic Temple Assassins.., who have all created tracks in collaboration with Kompleksi. ..
