ADULT. is an American band from Detroit, Michigan, formed in 1998 by art photographer Nicola Kuperus and painter Adam Lee Miller. The band integrates vocals with drum machines, analog synthesizers and electronic/punk elements.   Miller and Kuperus are also the founders of the renowned Ersatz Audio record label. ADULT. have remixed other artists, most notably Felix da Housecat, Fischerspooner, Ladytron, A Number of Names, The Faint, Erase Errata and Bis.   After a quarter century of nearly nonstop activity, dystopian Detroit synth-punk institution ADULT. have perfected a strain of stylistic cohesion in the album format, “but for this we wanted something that’s falling apart.” Becoming Undone, the 9th official full-length by co-founders Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller, explicitly succeeds in this aim, simultaneously rejecting and reflecting the planetary discord that inspired it. Reconnecting with legacy influences like the politicized industrial percussion of Test Department and the queasy miscreant synthetics of TG’s 20 Jazz Funk Greats sparked a series of fruitfully frenetic sessions, centered on themes of impermanence and dissonance. Miller’s rationale is blunt: “We weren’t interested in melody or harmony since we didn’t see the world having that.”

Belgian hard hitting contemporary Electronic Body musicThe Juggernauts (B) have become one of the most important innovative and rejuvenating bands within the (Belgian) Electronic Body Music circuit. Their first EP Phoenix (2013) and the following debut album "The Juggernauts Are Coming" (2016) features club-compatible tunes built on a minimalist foundation of beats, sequencer and shouts.Just as the dictionary explains the term The Juggernauts, they are an unstoppable destructive force and The Juggernauts' music blasts out of the speakers as an energetic bastion of beats, bass and anger. Few contemporary bands manage to channel the spirit of early EBM as brutally effectively as this Belgian combo. Pounding drum machines and exciting sequences accompany frontman Borg as he screams out all the anger, cynicism and social criticism out of his system.While The Juggernauts undeniably share the spirit of bands like Front 242 or Nitzer Ebb, they do not fall into the retro or copy trap, but contribute firmly to underground dance music, with a refreshingly hard and modern approach.With songs such as their proven club hits "Phoenix", «Purge», «Follow» and «Fear», the time has come for a real renaissance within Electronic Body Music. Their extremely positive reception of their recently release Fear EP (2023), by the music press as well as by The Juggernauts' ever growing fanbase, made it clear The Juggernauts' freight-train is unstoppable still on the roll!
