Art of Noise

Art of Noise were an English avant-garde synthpop group consisting of engineer/producer Gary Langan, programmer J. J. Jeczalik, arranger Anne Dudley, producer Trevor Horn and music journalist Paul Morley. The group is perhaps best known currently for the international Top 20 singles "Kiss" and "Peter Gunn".

Art of Noise were initially packaged as a faceless band, blurring the distinction between the art and its creators. The band is noted for innovative use of electronics and computers in pop music and particularly for innovative use of sampling.

The group has released five studio albums, eleven compilation albums, one extended play (EP) and seventeen singles. Their albums are Who's Afraid of the Art of Noise? in 1984, In Visible Silence in 1986, In No Sense? Nonsense! in 1987, Below the Waste in 1989, and The Seduction of Claude Debussy in 1999.
