I’ve always had an interest in making art that exists in a similar way to music,” says Rachel Noble, a London based virtual artist working in the underground dance music circuit. “More primal, instinctual and intuitive, than conceptual or intellectual.” Noble stopped DJing on NTS to focus on her visual work, creating videos for Australia’s Pitch Music and Arts Festival and collaborating with the likes of Boiler Room and Just Jam.

Chelsea Louise Berlin’s new book Rave Art draws on her huge collection of flyers, invites, membership cards and other ephemera from the early 1980s onwards to celebrate the lo-fi visual culture which was so intrinsically linked to the UK club scene. Not only are these fascinating visual artefacts, they were also vital to the way the scene spread and partygoers communicated how, when and where the next raves would take place. In Rave Art, the whole exciting movement is documented through the flyers that were handed out freely (often privately) to inform partygoers of the next venue. Flyer design became an artform, and this book contains hundreds of the most significant and rare examples from Chelsea’s huge collection.

My inspiration also comes from art-house cinema and alternative fashion, as well as from everyday life - the way I see the world or the way I want to see the world.” In November, DJ Hell revealed Ant’s music video for his Out of Control single: a chromatic fetish fantasy using CGI rendered models of his head.

"He’d just started off with his Strangelove party series, and gave me the opportunity to do a couple of posters for him.” Coming from what Sauterleute describes as “painting and the sometimes lonely studio-work,” his passion for music-related projects developed. “I focused more on the details, and always trying to improve. I fell in love with the freeness and the possibilities of those kinds of projects. Reacting, collaborating and adding another layer to music through images felt - and still feels - really good.”TR_Dion: I swear they are sitting with pen and paper ready for when the ‘Dion tweets a character’ siren starts sounding
