Art Of Noise - The Seduction Of Claude Debussy RSD 2026

A long-overdue vinyl debut arrives in spectacular fashion with The Seduction Of Claude Debussy, the visionary final studio album from The Art of Noise. Released exclusively for Record Store Day 2026, this limited-edition pressing finally brings the band’s 1999 masterpiece to wax for the very first time.

Pressed across two stunning translucent blue LPs, this edition captures the full scope of the group’s most ambitious work—an immersive concept album inspired by the life and legacy of Claude Debussy. Blending orchestral elegance with cutting-edge electronic production, the album fuses classical influences with drum & bass, hip-hop, opera, jazz, and spoken-word narration to create what has been described as “the soundtrack to a film that was never made.”

Featuring contributions from legendary producer Trevor Horn alongside Anne Dudley, Paul Morley, and Lol Creme, the album also includes guest appearances from Rakim, John Hurt, and Donna Lewis—adding depth and texture to this genre-defying journey.

Newly remastered from the original production masters, this definitive edition also includes four rare bonus tracks—previously unavailable on physical formats—making it an essential release for collectors and audiophiles alike.
