(live entertainment) WHY: To commemorate their five year anniversary as one of Detroit's most unique and enigmatic electronic labels, Ersatz Audio is making available a CD compilation ("The Forgotten Sounds of Tomorrow") featuring a comprehensive selection of works from previous releases. This spectacular collection of music culminates a true commitment to the burgeoning electronic music genre. However, what distinguishes the Ersatz Audio label from all others, is its stripped down sound. With a sublimated sense of humor, they continue to explore the often overlooked electronic synth pop of the 80s. Their austere interpretations with purposeful irony demand careful listening. The aforementioned CD compilation is also an homage to the visual artist who have helped shape EAs distinctive visual style. A look which has been featured in the internationally recognized guide to cutting edge graphic design "Disc Style" (©1999 Edition Olms AG). Adam Lee Miller along with Rita Sayegh of Construture Design established the initial branding which the Ersatz Audio label has become known for. The CD booklet features visuals by Philip Burke, Matthew Gollnick, Nicola Kuperus, Adam Lee Miller, Pilot Pictures, Rita Sayegh / Constructure, & Riva Sayegh. This FREE event on February 19, 2000, at the detroit contemporary will include a live performance by PERSPECTS featuring Ian R. Clarke (of Le CAR) also performing are ADULT. featuring Nicola Kuperus and Adam Equation (of Le CAR). This ONE NIGHT event showcases artwork from those included in the CD booklet. It is a chance to get a glimpse of the rigorous standard within which Ersatz Audio continues to define itself. So visit and enjoy the unforgettable sights and sounds at the detroit contemporary.
