If music were a drug, where would it take you? If drugs were music, how would you listen?

After years of playing bass in lousy two-bit bands, Elliot finally gets his big chance. He meets a singer, a DJ and a drummer who seem to have everything - passion, talent, hypnotic songs, and a whole new way of funky seduction; but just as their first dance record is climbing the charts, one of the band disappears. Elliot's search for the missing musician becomes a wild, fiercely emotional trip into the dark soul of rhythm.

In this astonishing novel Jeff Noon conjures the mystery of dance culture like no other writer. Allowing the complex rhythms of the music to infect his language, Noon creates a new kind of writing, liquid dub poetics. In the grooves he discovers a world where the scratches of the stylus cut the body; a DJ's samples are melodies of blood; love is a ghost lost in the boom box; and the only remix that really matters is the remix of the heart.
