The Normal is the recording artist name used by English music producer Daniel Miller, a film editor at the time, who is best known as the founder of the record label Mute Records. Although Miller founded Mute with the intention of releasing his own music, he only released one 7" vinyl single under the name The Normal: 1978's "T.V.O.D. "/"Warm Leatherette". Both tracks were minimalist electronic songs using a Korg 700s analog synthesizer and a Revox B-77 tape machine.

- The Normal is the recording artist name used by English music producer Daniel Miller, a film editor at the time, who is best known as the founder of the record label Mute Records. Although Miller founded Mute with the intention of releasing his own music, he only released one 7" vinyl single under the name The Normal: 1978's "T.V.O.D. "/"Warm Leatherette". Both tracks were minimalist electronic songs using a Korg 700s analog synthesizer and a Revox B-77 tape machine. This single was recorded in Daniel Miller's living room. Although it did not enter the UK Singles Chart, the single was influential on the post-punk/electronic music scene in the UK at the time. The lyrics for "Warm Leatherette" referenced J.G. Ballard's novel Crash. The song has since been covered by artists Blok 57, Pankow, Grace Jones, Die Tödliche Doris, Sleep Chamber, Vitalic, Chicks on Speed/Hell on a split-7", Giddle and Boyd, Dive, and in 2006 by Trent Reznor with Jeordie White and Peter Murphy. A recent cover was performed live by Duran Duran at their run of ten concerts in New York City in November 2007, and as part of an electro medley portion of their set list on their subsequent 2008 tour, in support of their album Red Carpet Massacre. A second release as The Normal with other Mute Records act Robert Rental, Live at West Runton Pavilion, wasn't well received. A strange release, it was a one sided album (side two was left blank) of improvised electronic noises, in a plain purple dust jacket. Marat Records published the same record in Germany as Daniel Miller Robert Rental Live with a black and white picture sleeve, catalogue no. Marat Rough 017. Miller also recorded the album Music for Parties under the name Silicon Teens, mostly featuring sparse electronic new-wave covers of '50's and '60's pop classics such as "Sweet Little Sixteen" and "Let's Dance". Daniel Miller is also a prolific engineer and producer, producing such acts as Depeche Mode, Erasure, Wire, and DAF.
- The Normal war ein Musikprojekt von Daniel Miller, der als der Gründer des Plattenlabels Mute Records bekannt wurde. Obwohl Miller ursprünglich Mute Records mit der Absicht gründete, seine eigene Musik zu veröffentlichen, produzierte er im Jahr 1978 nur eine Single unter dem Namen The Normal mit dem Titel T.V.O.D. /Warm Leatherette. Beide Tracks sind minimalistische Elektronische Musik, die mit einem KORG 700s Analog-Synthesizer und einer Revox B-77 Tape Machine produziert wurden. Daniel Miller nahm diese Single in seinem Wohnzimmer auf. Obwohl sie nicht in die englischen Charts kam, hatte diese Single zur damaligen Zeit großen Einfluss auf die Post-Punk-/Electronic-Musik-Szene in England. Der Titel Warm Leatherette ist inspiriert von J.G. Ballards Roman “Crash”, in dem Menschen Autos zu Schrott fahren, weil es sie sexuell erregt. Der Song wurde seitdem von Musikern wie Pankow, Grace Jones, Sleep Chamber, Vitalic, Chicks on Speed/Hell auf einer Split-Single mit jeweils einer eigenen Version, und 2006 von Trent Reznor mit Peter Murphy gecovert. Es gab mit "Live at West Runton Pavilion" eine zweite Veröffentlichung als The Normal mit Robert Rental. Eine Platte, die nur auf einer Seite bespielt war. Im Gegensatz zur Originalpressung, die in einer einfachen roten Schutzhülle verkauft wurde, erhielt die deutsche Pressung eine weiße Hülle mit einer unscharfen Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografie (Rough Trade 17/Marat). Miller nahm auch das Album Music for Parties unter dem Namen Silicon Teens auf, für den hauptsächlich spärliche Electronic-New-Wave-Coverversionen von 70er- und 80er-Jahre-Pop-Klassikern wie Sweet Little Sixteen und Let’s Dance aufgenommen wurden. Der Regisseur John Hughes war davon so angetan, dass der Song Red River Rock auf dem Soundtrack zu Ein Ticket für Zwei zu hören ist. Daniel Miller ist auch Produzent von Bands wie Depeche Mode, Erasure, Wire und DAF.
