Arthur Baker (born April 22, 1955, Boston, Massachusetts) is an American record producer and DJ best known for his work with hip hop artists like Afrika Bambaataa, Planet Patrol and the British group New Order.
He went on to work for hip-hop label Tommy Boy Records, where he produced Afrika Bambaataa and the Soul Sonic Force's "Planet Rock" single, which was a hit in the summer of 1982. The record combined elements from two Kraftwerk recordings, "Trans Europe Express" and "Numbers", which were imitated by studio musicians, rather than sampled. Then later on he produced Planet Patrol "Play At Your Own Risk" single in 1982, another group with a hit album in 1983.
