Mint-Lee noka is the latest unit of Mayutan (of toy-pop unit ammakasie noka), Okamura Midori (aka Mint-Lee) and toy instrument percussionist Sayu Candy. Their first release comes as a stunningly beautiful 7" picture disc, of which the concept is "plush toys are up at night and they've started a band"! These songs tell about the toys' secret life.
