Martin Hannett (May 31, 1948 – April 18, 1991), sometimes credited as Martin Zero, was an innovative record producer closely associated with Joy Division and Factory Records.
He helped develop Joy Division and co-founded Factory Records with Tony Wilson. Hannett's trademark sound, most apparent on Joy Division's groundbreaking debut album Unknown Pleasures and its follow-up, Closer, is sparse and eerie, complementing frontman Ian Curtis' dark, depressive musings and tremulous baritone vocals.
