"Art Decade" is an instrumental by English singer-songwriter David Bowie, released on his 1977 album Low.
Recounting his impressions, Bowie later called West Berlin "a city cut off from its world, art and culture, dying with no hope of retribution."
The song features a quick introduction on percussion and vibraphone, using a caravan-like drum sound to continue throughout the piece.
Bowie's melodic portion of the composition is layered over the synthetic soundscapes of Brian Eno, whose synthesizer effects are reminiscent to those of the No Pussyfooting album from 1973.
"[1] Hansa Studios engineer Eduard Meyer played the cellos on the recording.
