Misinterpreted by ADULT.
This 12" came with a concept based on a popular children's game "The Telephone Game." A group of children sit in a circle. A child whispers a sentence to the individual sitting next to them, and this sentence is repeatedly whispered around the circle until the last child hears the sentence. At which time, the last and first children say their sentence out loud, and inevitably, the sentence has changed dramatically from the original.
ADULT. has adapted this idea for this release. A new ADULT. track entitled "Don't You Stop" has been remixed by Solvent (Suction Records). Solvent's remix was then given to Phoenecia (Schematic Record Co.) for them to remix, without letting Phoenecia hear the original ADULT. song. Alder & Elius (Skam) finish off the release with the same rules intact. The end product is a cohesive 12" with what really sounds like 4 unique songs with a common thread. Re: interpreting the Re: mix process. Packaged in hand screened jackets, with either black, grey, blue, red, or green ink. An Ersatz Audio (Detroit) release.
"The hype can start whenever. There's no hurry. Adult. already rule. Period." -NME '2002
"A much loved anomaly in the faced-paced world of Detroit electronic music..." -The New York Times '2002

Over the course of the last two decades, Detroit's ADULT. (Nicola Kuperus and Adam Lee Miller) have been perhaps one of the most fervent proponents of a dark, dance aesthetic that harnesses the perverse aspects of the late '70s analog dystopian post-modernism.
