Modern Music is the fourth studio album by English rock band Be-Bop Deluxe. It was produced by band leader Bill Nelson and producer/engineer John Leckie. As AllMusic reviewer William Ruhlmann states in his review, "the album charted high in England and made the Top 100 in the U.S., but it was Be Bop's peak, not its breakthrough.

It was re-released in early 1991 with three bonus tracks. Q Magazine described the album as 'less impressive [with] convoluted poetical ramblings [and] indulgent twoddling'.
