Art Department

Art Department began as a Canadian electronic music partnership and became a prominent name in the international house circuit. Resident Advisor identifies Jonny White as the project's remaining force, following a period when the act was associated with both White and Kenny Glasgow. The project’s early rise unfolded through club records and a high-profile presence on the global circuit, with its sound and identity linked to labels including Crosstown Rebels and No.19 Music.

The group’s catalog includes the album Natural Selection and the fabric mix fabric 82, while its releases have ranged from underground club material to collaborations. Resident Advisor’s artist profile notes a 2010 start for the act’s event history and recounts its rapid ascent, while its archive includes the duo’s conversations about the project’s darker side and how it came to prominence. Art Department’s story is therefore both a record-label narrative and a club one: an evolving project shaped by touring, production and shifting membership.
