Richie Hawtin’s second album, DE9 – Closer to the Edit, is currently being showcased on his never-ending world tour of everything from the hippest London clubs to the remotest Australian deserts. It wasn’t always this way, however. Born in 1970 in Banbury, Oxfordshire, Hawtin emigrated with his family at the age of nine to Windsor Ontario. On DE9: Closer to the Edit, it sounds like the 'unnecessary' pile is bigger than ever. Consider DE9: Closer to the EditRichie Hawtin's turntablist record. Freed from the (only relative) constraints of his Decks, EFX & 909setup, Hawtinapplied Final Scratch technology, a system which pipelines any digital sound elements - from CD, MiniDisc, an effects box, practically anything - directly into the needle of a special turntable.

'Close (to the Edit)' is a single by Art of Noise, released on various formats in October 1984. It was closely related to their earlier single (and hip-hop club hit) 'Beat Box', though the two tracks were developed as separate pieces from an early stage.

The first release of a version of 'Close (to the Edit)' was as a nominal remix of 'Beat Box' under the title 'Beat Box (Diversion Two)'. This was then re-edited and partly remixed with different effects applied, to become the version of 'Close (to the Edit)' which appeared on the subsequent album Who's Afraid of the Art of Noise?. Paul Morley's sleevenotes for the single simplify the relationship between 'Diversion Two' and 'Close', noting only that 20 seconds were 'snipped out'.

The song takes its title from Close to the Edge by Yes, and also samples 'Leave It' and 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' by the same group, the latter two of which Trevor Horn produced. The single heavily features the recorded sample of a car, a Volkswagen Golf owned by a neighbour of band member J. J. Jeczalik, stalling and restarting. It also contains a (re-sung) vocal sample from the song 'Beer Barrel Polka', as performed by The Andrews Sisters. The short spoken-word vocal and the 'Hey!' sample – used in a number of songs most notably in 'Firestarter' by The Prodigy and 'Back in the Day' by Christina Aguilera (uncredited) – was the voice of Camilla Pilkington-Smyth.^[2]

The single was released in the UK on what had become ZTT's customary array of formats: standard and picture disc 7' versions, five 12' singles (one a picture disc) and a cassette single, each featuring a number of unique mixes. The many remixes were given their own titles derived from the overall title, including 'Edited', 'Closely Closely (Enough's Enough)' and 'Close-Up'.

The cassette single version, 'That Was Close', was a medley of a number of the mixes from the various formats, featuring 'Diversion Eight', 'Diversion Two', 'Closest', 'Close-Up', the album version of 'Close (to the Edit)' and 'Closed'. This medley lasted in excess of 20 minutes in length, repeated on both sides of the cassette, and remained otherwise unavailable until it was included in its entirety on the 2006 CD box-set compilation And What Have You Done with My Body, God?.

The single was Art of Noise's first major UK hit, reaching number eight in the UK singles chart in February 1985.

Music videos[edit]

Three promotional videos were recorded for the single. The original version, featuring a little girl (reportedly named Sylwia) in punk garb leading three business suit-clad men in the destruction of various musical instruments, was directed by Zbigniew Rybczyński. According to an interview^[3] with the band, 'The male members of the band were slightly disturbed that they were made to come off as Huey Lewis and the News,' Paul Morley said in an interview at the time, 'so one of the reasons we tend to hide behind masks or not appear at all is because it opens up more possibilities how Art of Noise can be presented. Sometimes you had video art directors get excited about how they were going to present Art of Noise, and in that particular case, he interpreted it as a strange young girl with Huey Lewis & The News. Half of it was fun and half of it was slightly sad.'

'I thought it was a fun video,' Anne Dudley said, 'but some people thought it was unnecessarily violent. It was banned in New Zealand as encouraging violence towards children. Nothing could have been further from our minds.'The video later won the MTV Video Music Awards for Most Experimental Video and the Best Editing in 1985. In 1987, 'Sylwia' and the three older men were recruited again by Art of Noise to appear in a promotional video for their cover of the theme song from 'Dragnet,' and from their album In No Sense? Nonsense!, recorded for the 1987 comedic film adaptation starring Dan Aykroyd.

A second video version, composed almost entirely of surreal animation, aired in the UK, directed by Matt Forrest,^[4] with some clips from the original version.

A third video version, mostly identical to the second video version, included various shots of the band in-studio. ZTT Records have made all of these videos viewable on YouTube.

Live performance[edit]

The track was performed live by Horn and Anne Dudley during Horn's 2004 all-star charity event Produced by Trevor Horn (later released on DVD as Slaves to the Rhythm), celebrating Horn's 25th anniversary as a record producer. The performance featured Yes drummer Alan White on drums and Lol Creme on guitar. Almost all of the elements of it (except for a spoken phrase by Camilla Pilkington-Smyth, which was pre-recorded) were live, as opposed to programmed or sequenced: Horn played his elaborate bass part on a 5-string bass, Dudley played live synths and triggered all the samples from the original track (including the 'dum-dum' chant) from a Roland keyboard, the 'tra-la-la' vocals (originally an Andrew Sisters sample) were sung live by Linda Allen and Debi Doss of Buggles fame, all the other instruments were played by members of the onstage orchestra, and the whole piece was played faster than the original (about 135-136 BPM rather than 129). Indeed, Horn introduced the performance by emphasizing the live nature of it and stating that, since the original piece was 'played by machines' (i.e. programmed), the band would introduce some deliberate mistakes to prove that everybody was live. In fact, the actual performance does not include any mistakes, but some of Dudley's melodic synth lines are slightly different from the studio version.^[5]

Former Art of Noise members J. J. Jeczalik and Gary Langan do not feature in the performance, nor does music journalist and MC Paul Morley. In spite of this, the track is listed on the DVD cover and menu as being performed by Art of Noise.
