Needle in the Groove is a 1999 novel by British writer Jeff Noon. A music/spoken word CD was released on the same day as the book.

It tells its story through the eyes of Elliot, a young twenty-something bassist, as he finds himself playing bass for Glam Damage, a new DJ-based band who are experimenting with a new recording technology - a weird liquid/drug that remixes music when shaken.
