The Seduction of Claude Debussy broke Art of Noise\u2019s 10-year-long musical drought. I was fortunate enough to interview Paul Morley at the beginning of the collective\u2019s next exciting chapter.

Besides being a journalist for the NME and co-founding the legendary record label ZTT, he was also a member of Art of Noise, along with Trevor Horn, Anne Dudley, and Lol Creme.

Harvested from a decaying C90 cassette, this interview has Paul talking through the group\u2019s hiatus and subsequent return to Art of Noise fold after more than a decade away.

Fun fact: The album, the group\u2019s 5th, was initially only released on CD and Minidisc.
