Being a Japanese based group, many of Audio Active's releases have been available only in their home country or in a different form in the UK - if at all. This has meant that, for me, getting hold of the Japanese items has been virtually impossible so as to provide first hand information about them. As such, I have been reliant on the information of others to compile parts of this discography. AA's one-time official website www.audioactive.org in particular being particularly informative.

All releases feature some degree of AMS production / mixing work and were released in the UK unless otherwise stated. AA's Japanese label-mate's Dry & Heavy (who also share some AA personnel) have had several releases licensed in the UK on On-U's subsidiary label Green Tea.
