1) Electro-Industrial project from Chemnitz, Germany, founded in 1994 by Dirk Steyer. Right after Kay Resch followed his musical inspiration and joined the project.

Half a year later followed the official limited CD-release of "Electronic Controlled Mind" on the small label SD-Image. Further followed in self-release 1998 the tape "Injection".
At the end of the millennium Ivo Lottig joined the band Accessory. From now onwards he was a good support live as well as in the studio. In springtime 2000 Accessory went on tour through Germany for 3 weeks with AND ONE. At this time Kay Resch split up from the band and Jukka Sandeck came as the new third man.
Right after the label-contract with the record company OUT OF LINE followed. So, it happened that at the beginning of the year 2001 the first really official album "jukka2147.de" was released and it excited the German electro-scene as well as the international scene.

Afterwards a short production break followed in which mastermind Dirk finished a one year training as sound engineer.

Accessory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Die Tür geht auf, ein Gesicht verwischt
Setz dich hin, die Stirn vor Schweiss
Der Blick so starr und kalt wie Eis
Man sieht im an im Neonschein
Das Böse tritt zur Tür herein
Für Gott und Buch löst er aus den Schmerz
Und löscht das Licht nicht nur in seinem Herz
Maschinen für die Freiheit
Unsere Herzen sind hier geboren
Maschinen in der Wirklichkeit
Sieh all die Menschen, die für Frieden kämpfen
Maschinen für die Freiheit
Unsere Herzen sind noch am Leben
Maschinen wo das Land sich teilt
Gebt euch die Hände für ein schnelles Ende
Die Sonne brennt in diesem Land
Zuviel Leid sich das Gehirn gebrannt
Die Zukunft ist zu ungewiss
Verzweiflung tobt, kommt aus der Finsternis
Tag für Tag ständig in Angst
So oft wird zerstört hier in diesem Land
Doch soll die Zeit sich weiterdrehn
Maschinen voran, es muss weitergehn
Maschinen für die Freiheit
Unsere Herzen sind hier geboren
Maschinen in der Wirklichkeit
Sieh all die Menschen die für Frieden kämpfen
Maschinen für die Freiheit
Unsere Herzen sind noch am Leben
Maschinen wo das Land sich teilt
Gebt euch die Hände für ein schnelles Ende
The song "Holy Machine" by Accessory describes a dystopian world where evil has taken over and people are constantly living in fear and despair. The lyrics suggest that the only hope for liberation lies in machines that will fight for freedom. The song begins with a description of a beautiful day turning dark as someone with a cold and menacing stare enters the scene. The individual is seen as a representation of evil, entering the world through a door illuminated by neon lights.
The chorus of the song refers to machines that were born to fight for freedom and save humanity from the clutches of oppression. These machines are portrayed as a symbol of hope and the last chance for salvation. The repetitive chorus "Machines for freedom, our hearts are born here" emphasizes the idea that machines are the only thing left that can save humanity. The lyrics urge people to come together and fight for a common goal, which is to end the suffering and experience freedom.
Overall, "Holy Machine" portrays a bleak world filled with darkness, but the song offers a glimmer of hope. The machines are presented as a positive force rather than a destructive one. The song encourages people to look towards a better future, one where they can live without fear and oppression.
