Adam Lee Miller is one half of the band ADULT. [1] and an owner of Ersatz Audio with his wife Nicola Kuperus, [2] [3] [4] who he first collaborated with in his first solo project Artificial Material [5] in the summer of 1997. [6] He was formerly in a band called Le Car, [5] which disbanded in the same year. He started his first punk band in 1986, and would eventually get kicked out for introducing synthesizers. [7] Originally from Indiana, he moved to Detroit in 1989 and attended art school there. [7] As early as 2000, he expressed a preference for "analog synthesizers and drum boxes" over samples and computers for signal processing, limiting the use of computers to musical sequencing and hard-disk recording.
