\"Art<\/a>It was only a matter of time before my pursuit of beats,\u00a0sampling, electronics and such would put me in the same room with The Art Of Noise.<\/em>\u00a0 I think\u00a0my first taste of The Art Of Noise came from their video for Close (To The Edit)<\/em>Like some of the Information\u00a0Society\u00a0<\/em>stuff, it seemed that much of the music was happening in a computer where snippets of sounds and dialog were warped into musical elements.<\/p>\n

Much of the music is instrumental and of course that appealed. The beats were dominate and the non-traditional nature outs this squarely in my win column. Add to it some movie and TV tie ins and a dose of humor and it was like this album was built just for me.<\/p>\n

Tom Jones <\/em>does a fabulous version of Prince’s <\/em>song Kiss.<\/em> It cracks me up and yet it is really good fun. I prefer it to the original every day of the week. When Tom says “Think I better dance now” it is classic.<\/p>\n

Another memory tied to this album is when Grant was “signing along” to Dragnet. During the I carry, I carry, I carry a badge section, he nailed the exact number of I carries. Amusing yes! Why? I don’t know. Life is like that.<\/p>\n

Opus 4<\/em>
