Where is the version with the 2 girls arguing in the beginning,I believe the video was with the"Art of Noise"on stage and 2 girls were talking in the background on the track it was funny the 2 girls arguing made me laugh they were'nt arguing for very long but the little segment they had with them talking at first then they started arguing was very cute and I can't find that version anywhere.Hopefully someone can help me.
WOW synthpop flash back. Their first big hit "Beat Box" is special to me, the fist time I heard it was the same day my wife found out we had our first child on the way. The DJ played it to start his set and he got so tired of hearing people yell to play it again that for the last hour he just looped it and sat in the bar drinking lol. We though about the middle name of Aon but wimped out. (still wish we went with it)
Wow man, this brings back some memories! I first saw this late at night in the 80's on USA up all night they used to have part of it called Night Flight where they would show music videos and previews. This video/song blew my mind and had never heard anything so damn cool b4. That little girl freaks me out! lol. Thanks DPJTRON for putting this up and I loved what you did with blending/editing. I was looking for this song for years, just forgot name/title etc. Thanks again!
A truly brilliant and unique piece of work - love it loads and brings back many memories of late 1984 and 1985! Fab video too - thank you so much for bringing this to us
This was a brilliant piece of work DPJTRON! I like all the tidbits of info & the meshing of all your visuals. Great timing, you rock! And now after 25+ yrs. I finally know the real name of "punk girl". Excellent video! :-)
I LOVED this song back in the day! For an 80's tune, this song was extremely advanced and nothing today can compare to it's unique sound. The only group from today that I can link to Art Of Noise, is Daft Punk, whose sound I love, and does have a bit of that retro/techno feel to it!
REALLY nice video editing of all the videos to go with this extended mix. I especially loved the "behind the scenes" info you provided ala Pop-Up Videos. Classic!
who is that little midget girl? How do u people listen to this crap, i can understand ebm, experiential,idm,synpop, industrial music but, where does this fall under.......o yeah i know crap right next to rap and country...........
Inspired! - saw them at Shephard's Bush Empire - only had to wait close to 20 years to see the play live - a wonderful video edit tribute - many thanks.
Without a doubt, I have got to have my Real Music, played by Musicians, with real Instruments. But, I did dig this guys with their Electronic Sound. This was alright...
The only one I've ever seen was the one with the chainsaw, the piano and the odd group of characters. And that director's propensity for casting very small people...I've often wondered....
Am I the only one who is reminded of Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time during the "Hey!" and the "hyeah!" shouts? The "hey" reminds me of Navi and the "hyeah" sounds like Link doing one of his sword moves
May 1984 - I was 24 years old....I had just bought a 1984 Buick Regal Grand National...and this was one of the first cassettes I bought * (Who's Afraid Of?) The Art of Noise! * I would crank this, along with YELLO, Kraftwerk, & DEVO....Yes...they are saying "Close to the edge"....but who cares..??
@dkraft1 I was 14 years old and was wearing a jacket with zip off sleeves! My mom bought me a Panasonic (I think) portable cassette player. I had to flip the tape over manually. It didn't have auto-reverse. :)
very cool edit of it love it and love the orig aswell,hadnt seen it in years,i do have the vhs vid here somewhere if it still works,didnt know it was flipside of beat box cooool
I didn't think I'd enjoy this as much as the original, but I really did! I always loved this longer version, and to see a video that matches is so well is like finding a long-lost artifact. Thank you! (Be happy or die.)
Whoops! Thought you were referring to my "Alan White" comment, sorry. Seriously, buy (or download, ahem) Propaganda's "Secret Wish" it will change your life. Well, maybe not, but it's a great listen.
I used to Dj and The art of Noise was one of the groups that I cut my teeth on. Beatbox was the greatest DJ record that I ever heard. Played that one so much till we wore a groove straight thru. Love this song
The drum beat sample came from the song from YES "Close to the Edge"...... Just a theory that Paul Morley came up with the alternate tiltle "Close to the Edit" You do have to understand that AON was a group that probably had unlimited access to a recording studio and there were probably dozens of different mixes for Close to the Edit that were made...
mixing..... editing.......
They were probably one of the top studio musicians along with Pink Floyd.
@DPJTRON Sorry you are both wrong.. the name Close (To The Edit) came from JJ Jecazalik.. Close To The Edge by Yes was used as a model for the track. Hence why it was originally called "Close To The Edge" as a bit of a joke. JJ thought to change it to (To The Edit) which they all liked.
The drum beat was not taken from Close To The Edge. the drums were played live by Alan White of Yes in the ZTT Studios, and sampled by the band.
perhaps because thats the title the band gave to their song? i wonder if that had anything to do with it. Certainly editing and edges are unrelated. no connection whatso ever so there any kind of metaphoric thing going on ... hhm.m.... mmhm.
@missdj10 The title is correct. The "edit" or the edit block was when reel to reel tapes were manually cut and tapped together to make edits. This was the craze back then and the song, being highly edited, fits the title regardless of the lyrics.
nuttin wrong with duran duran at least they snagged a bond film with view to a kill . 80s are so gone oops wait pet shop boys are back in thier 50s and sound same art of noise has some thing violenlty audio
Consider We could all be listening to Duran Duran and there like to eternity. 2000+ dance music began somewhere. Just fooking get a grip! Lighten up!!!
The thing is spoiled by the "look what I did" comments all the way through. Get over yourself, and allow your effort stand on it's own. It's like trying to listen to a song with some dork saying, "Here comes the good part!" If I agree with you that you're wonderful and that you know a lot, will you put out a version without the superfluous, self serving distractions?
Well its been up on line for almost 3 years,,, I added the annotations last year not just to show on what I did. There is also unknow trivia about the making of the video and the casual viewer doesn't even know how many different video edits of CTTE are out there.
Thank you DPJTRON for the annotaions. They are not distracting at all. I learned about Sylwia who isnpired me to write s short horror tale. I learned why they made another video which is crap compared to the classic original. Thanks for this great version of the song.
@DPJTRON I don't see what the problem is. I appreciated the extra information and I have no idea why that person thinks it was some sort of ego trip, so thank you.
I don't know if this is a new feature or what, but you can turn off annotations in videos. The button is embedded in the controls at the bottom right of the screen. Problem solved.
good music, but i got tired of the destruction going on in the video. think about construction with creativity, not destruction. creative construction engages the mind and is more interesting.
They created it themselves. Art of Noise did everything themselves. Using pre-fab "beats" (that is, OTHER peoples music[!]) was an insane horror that came and was mostly utilized in the '90s and now.
Thanks. I like their earlier stuff...more raw. If I recall correctly I bought a vinyl 12" single in a transparent vinyl sleeve. The record itself was multicolored, not black, and had the Art Of Nois masks on both sides. The track I liked was "Close Up" (I think) and was a variance of "Close To The Edit". It had a long but wonderful piano tune. I wonder if there was ever a video for it?
to answer your question. no they don't have a video. just the song and different clips. just type in art of noise close up and you will get it. just thought you like to know.
There are at least a handful of versions out there. It's bizarre hearing them all and wondering which came first, which were was just experimental, which one does the AON consider the "official" version?
There are 3 official versions...ZTT considers all 3 official
The live stop motion animated one came first and someone at ZTT records didn't think the people in the first video truly represented AON, so they made another video with 2 alternate versions.
The internet rendered little and what it did gave me a "Discontinued by the manufacturer" I suggest downloading Youtube Downloader. It will allow you to download and convert this to audio format. Fantastic mix and it is SHAME this was limited to Asian markets. As if western peoples cannot appreciate what they did here. Must be a matter of money.... as usual.
just brilliant... pioneers way ahead of their time and one of few artists i treasure out of the 80's!...not like that bollocks like Wham that you hear getting played in crappy themed bars...but i digress....enjoy this brilliant song and video
thanks tldavis1230 i'm from the uk i remember watching this on this programme the tube which was broadcast from Newcastle where i live the 1st u.k. showing i think back in 1984
they also first played madonna in the u.k.b4 she became a superstar great show.
Who could forget the kick ass groove that the Art Of Noise came with during the 80s? Good music is good music, even if you have to go across the pond to get it (in other words, overseas)...thanks for posting

the destruction symbolises the end of conventional instruments for making music, electronica is the way forward.

good music, but i got tired of the destruction going on in the video. think about construction with creativity, not destruction. creative construction engages the mind and is more interesting.

Did they create that awesome unique beat themselves like the other "instruments" or did it already exist?
palacio154 3 years ago
They created it themselves. Art of Noise did everything themselves. Using pre-fab "beats" (that is, OTHER peoples music[!]) was an insane horror that came and was mostly utilized in the '90s and now.

Thanks. I like their earlier stuff...more raw. If I recall correctly I bought a vinyl 12" single in a transparent vinyl sleeve. The record itself was multicolored, not black, and had the Art Of Nois masks on both sides. The track I liked was "Close Up" (I think) and was a variance of "Close To The Edit". It had a long but wonderful piano tune. I wonder if there was ever a video for it?
palacio154 3 years ago
to answer your question. no they don't have a video. just the song and different clips. just type in art of noise close up and you will get it. just thought you like to know.

There are at least a handful of versions out there. It's bizarre hearing them all and wondering which came first, which were was just experimental, which one does the AON consider the "official" version?
palacio154 3 years ago
There are 3 official versions...ZTT considers all 3 official
The live stop motion animated one came first and someone at ZTT records didn't think the people in the first video truly represented AON, so they made another video with 2 alternate versions.

Brilliant video and sound. AON were secret then, we now know them as Trevor |Horn, Anne Dudley et Al.

The internet rendered little and what it did gave me a "Discontinued by the manufacturer" I suggest downloading Youtube Downloader. It will allow you to download and convert this to audio format. Fantastic mix and it is SHAME this was limited to Asian markets. As if western peoples cannot appreciate what they did here. Must be a matter of money.... as usual.

May I be the first to say "Fuck off, this is nice work"? Go play video games and leave the art to those who understand it.

Who could forget the kick ass groove that the Art Of Noise came with during the 80s? Good music is good music, even if you have to go across the pond to get it (in other words, overseas)...thanks for posting
