Milk Incorporated (often shortened to Milk Inc.) is a Belgian vocal trance band. The group, currently comprised of Regi Penxten (keyboards, production), Linda Mertens (vocals, dancing), and Filip Vandueren (production), is known for their pulsating brand of trance interwoven with catchy dance grooves and upbeat vocals. More than just another European dance act, Milk Inc. has proven to be one of the most famous and long-standing electronic bands on the international scene, their popularity fueled by constant touring across dance hotspots like Corsica and Antwerp.

The band formed as a part-time studio project between Regi and Filip in early 1996. Both had been early entrants to the trance scene that had been developing in Europe since the early 1990’s, finding scattered work deejaying at parties and clubs - a humble beginning shared by many other heavyweights in the genre, including DJ Tiesto and the members of fellow Belgian dance group Ian Van Dahl. The duo released their first single "La Vache" in early 1997, off of their independently released 1999 album Apocalypse Cow. Milk Inc. featured a different lineup in its earlier days, supported by a different female singer and a guitarist.

Linda joined the band in late 1997 to form Milk Inc.’s current and most popular lineup. The trio released their second album, Land of The Living, in 2000. Land of The Living proved to be more successful than Apocalypse Cow, with four singles ("Losing Love", "Walk on Water", "Land of The Living", "Livin’ a Lie") reaching the top three spots of the Belgian Ultratop music charts. Their third album Closer (2003) continued the trend by spawning another six top ten hits, including fan favorite "The Sun Always Shines on TV".
