Ann Arbor-founded independent record label Ghostly International will celebrate 15 years of music and cultural curation with a super-show at Saint Andrew’s Hall on May 23.
Founded by Sam Valenti IV in 1999, Ghostly International has become a worldwide tastemaker of electronic and avant-garde dance music. Valenti, a DJ and electronic aficionado, eventually would join forces with producer Matthew Dear while attending the University of Michigan to develop the Ghostly brand (based off of Valenti’s former DJ moniker DJ Spaceghost).
Ghostly International now boasts more than 30 affiliated artists, including: Detroit’s Shigeto and ADULT., Matthew Dear, Solvent, Com Truise, Christopher Willits, Mux Mool, Tycho, Lusine, and others.
May 23 marks Ghostly International’s 15-year anniversary, which is scheduled to be celebrated with a concert presented by Movement Electronic Music Festival’s promotional organization Paxahau. The lineup includes: ADULT., Shigeto, Osborne, Heathered Pearls, Matthew Dear, JTC, and Mike Servito.
Tickets are available in limited supply for only $17.
