All three tracks were originally scheduled to be released on Axiomattic Records in December of 1997 as a prelude to the third, mythically lost Art of Silence album, Dot Dot Dot. Only Beat Box has been heard before - on the infamous The Abduction Of The Art of Noise compilation.

Lost, found, remastered and restored to a digital platform near you: https://ffm.to/dotdotdotdotdotdot JJ Jeczalik's late-90s EDM filtration plant, Art of Silence recorded three albums although only one was released at the time. First came Dot UK (which arrived on digital platforms last May with an accompanying album of bonus material, Dot DAT). Dot IQ followed, focusing on AoS's pop sensibilities with its cover of WAR's Low Rider. Dot Dot Dot points to where the project would have gone next, and how it would have concluded: channeling analogue electro and fusing it with increasingly rawk-guitar. Take, for example, the tearful opening instrumental Goodbye Silence. The project's 3-track Plays The Art of Noise EP is also included. As is the follow-up to Dot UK's 'Giant trilogy', the 'Blast trilogy. The Spiritual High mixes of Dot IQ's Fragments and Troubled Seas are referenced and concluded with the original Spiritual High track alongside its companion piece Spiritual Return. The album was originally scheduled to be released on Axiomattic Records in December of 1997 at almost the exact same time as Art Of Noise's Born Again and Dream On EPs, the original editions of which may be released digitally very soon.
