"White Noise" is a song by British electronic music duo Disclosure, featuring vocals by electronic music duo AlunaGeorge. The track is the second single ftaken from debut studio album Settle and peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart.
The track was met with very positive reviews upon its release. Pitchfork Media labeled it "Best New Music". Robert Copsey of Digital Spy blog gave the song a positive review stating:
"For their latest track 'White Noise' they've hooked up with trendy newbies AlunaGeorge - a savvy collaboration that's been carefully timed following their shared domination of last month's ones-to-watch lists. That's not to say it sounds forced; Disclosure's humming bassline, swirling synths and addictive clubby beeps are perfectly tailored to Aluna's pitched vocal. The result strikes a rarely-heard balance between hipster-friendly and potential chart-dominator. 4/5 stars."
Freddie Holmes of The Underclassed gave the track a mixed review stating that "It’s a great track nonetheless, especially to someone that hasn’t heard any of either group’s previous material, but my superfan standpoint has rendered me to be overly critical."
The song entered at number twenty eight on the UK Singles Chart. The following week, it climbed twenty six places to number two on the chart, beaten to the top by Thrift Shop by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis featuring Wanz.
