This adventurous German duo debuted on Force Inc's ultra-experimental Ritornell label with La Vie á Noir, a live album recorded on October 15, 1999, at Städel in their hometown of Frankfurt. Their music was conceptualized as a digitally processed reinterpretation of noir and was used by William Forsythe for his ballet Endless House. Following the release of the live album, the duo released a double-12" EP on Mille Plateux titled La Vie á Noir Remixes, which found them looping snippets from their album into minute-long segments. In 2000, one half of the duo, Ekkehard Ehlers, began recording solo as Auch, in addition to releasing music under his real name. In early 2001, the other member of the duo, Sebastian Meissner, released a solo album as RANDOM_INC on Ritornell, the highly conceptual Jerusalem, and has also released music as Random Industries.
