Noonday Underground was formed in England by Simon Dine and Daisy Martey, whose collaboration began following Dine’s earlier work as a DJ, producer and member of Adventures in Stereo. The duo emerged from the electronic and trip-hop scenes of the early 2000s, with Dine handling production and Martey providing vocals. Their first public release was the debut album Self-Assembly, originally issued in 2000 and reissued on 17 September 2001, followed by Surface Noisein 2002, establishing a presence in the UK electronic market. The group’s next major project, On The Freedom Flotilla, was released in 2006, featuring tracks that combined atmospheric synths with Martey’s soulful delivery. After a period of relative quiet, the band released Body Parts For Modern Art in 2015, a record that highlighted their continued experimentation within electronic music. Throughout their career, Noonday Underground released songs such as “The Light Brigade”, which was later used as the theme for Channel 4’s series No Angels. The group has released music through a range of independent labels. Noonday Underground’s discography reflects a steady evolution of sound, with each album building on the sonic foundations laid by their early work.
