John Houshmand and Jonathan Levi (members of Laurasia and 10 Martian Boys) appear with this unique and experimental NYC troupe, caught live in performance on Feb. 7, 1997 at Here/NYC.

As the members of Audio Artists describe themselves on the endless rim of the CD itself: "...united in the manufacture & use of homemade non-keyboard synthesizers, charting the ground between the technological and no logical technique... employing a palette of pure electronic sound, percussion, voice overs, Theremins and fuzz bass, combined with cheap theatrical ploys, filtered through and regardless of Western culture's musical thought, painting a hypnogogic mindscape of aesthetic, kinetic, pathetic audio vision..."
