First for M A S O N N A
Looking for a dank Whitehouse t-shirt
Vomir is a hack
>>60342392
you know what gets me about the whole Noise scene, at least here in the US, they claim to be about musical freedom and etc and etc, and then piss and moan about more mainstream music like whiny 13yos that just found more experimental music all the time. Like.. if you were really about musical freedom wouldn't you just not give a fuck what other people did?
>>60342392
I made this with converted files in audacity
I barely did anything and think of it more as someone who records sounds in nature then releases the sounds as their own work
https://surgicalheist.bandcamp.com/releases
what do you guys think?
>>60343652
Yeah I don't really see this happen at all
>>60343770
Talentless hack. Also pretty good tbhdesu.
any news on that new Consumer Electronics tape due out this month?
also remember when Jaakko Vanhala were meant to bring out a new album before summer?
>>60342392
>>60343577
Vomir is a hack, but I still like his stuff.
https://dogsinreverse.bandcamp.com/album/cassette-tape-series-tape-no-1
>>60343770
reminds me of clipping.
>>60342392
>calling either a hack
Terrible start, just terrible.
>how are you prepping for NBND?
Getting that sharethread ready. Ive got a list of 50 albums to upload already & still got plans to make it bigger. Just gotta sort thru the WCD DLs from freeleech.
>>60345069
>NBND
what is that?
>>60345069
I plan on mashing a lot of noise up with Disney movies. I did this with some Black Metal today. Not great but eh I needed to find a way to listen to 'We Are Friends' from the Jungle Book with out cheating NBBMN.
Also mashing noise with songs from RENT is super fun.
>I am 100% sober

Nothing But Noise December
It's going to be a riot this year.
Rec me some noise guys, haven't listened to much except merzbow and shit. I like shoegaze if that helps.
>>60344406
i like this fâm
>>60345184
It's going to help drown out the patheticness of modern Christmas, now a worthless 3 month evil circus.
>>60345289
Exactly. I think we're all going to be better people at the end of it. I'm literally not leaving these threads.
NBBMN and NBND are what I live for this time of year.
My noise band:
>savagehippy.bandcamp.com
>Vancouver, Canada
>>60342392
>Who's the bigger hack, Merzbow or Vomir?
Vomir obviously. Merzbow has alot more variety.
>Found any cool bandcamp releases lately?
New albums by ddx-10 and Epiglottis are both solid, though the Epiglottis one is less noise than his other releases.
>How are you preparing for NBND?
As of right now, submitting a track to the NBND compilation!
>>60342392
>What are you listening to?
>Pic related
Still a favorite after all these years
nbbmn already gets way too boring at the end, nothing but noise for a month would kill me even if I hadn't been listening to only black metal for weeks
>>60342392
I considered doing nothing but HNW for maybe like a week of NBND, then more chaotic stuff for the rest of the time. It's summer here, and I like how warm most HNW feels to me.
I'm not doing this but I made a tentative agenda.
>Dec 1 -8: The Classics (Chart Core)
>Dec 9 - 16: Physical Media Only (Stuff I own)
>Dec 17 - 24: Take Suggestions Only
>Dec 24 - 31: The Merzbox
>>60345849
Have fun with the merzbox. Listening to masami grow as an artist is a treat.
>>60345895
I'm doing the Merzbox at some point in the month. Not sure if during that week.
I think it may be a wonderful way to close the year though.
>>60345895
>>60345925
I thought I had to download it. Turns out I already have it among other things.
Vomir is the bigger hack
And I got a few bandcamps to link when I'm home from this show, but in the meantime self promo
https://noiseblackcat.bandcamp.com/
>ambient
Also I just got the artwork for my next album so I'm hyped
>>60345266
Thanks. Listening back to the mix on a new ambient track right now so I'll have that up tonight or tomorrow.
>>60342392
Vomir obviously, Merzbow is the best noise artist by quite a bit, no other noise artist has nearly as many great recordings as him. The Vomir stuff I heard was just standard noise wall boredom. Proanomie is is most popular release I think and that one is just the same sound throughout without change, sounds good for about 10 minutes tops.
>>60343770
I'm gonna use Audacity raw data for some of my recording, though I'm going to highly edit and manipulate the data.
>>60342392
Does this count?
>>60342392
>forgetting THE talentless hack himself made noise
>>60343770
>>60347084
>audacity
>staring at a computer screen

>>60347126
Debating whether to drive two hours to see him tomorrow night, probably will.

Go play with your pedals some more and make a sound we've already heard thousands of times done better by more talented noise artists.
>>60347383
>using faggot unironically

You're a shit irrelevant noise artist, nobody cares about your shit. I do have pedals by the way, they are cheap as shit. Just not as interesting as using a computer to make noise.

>>60347512
maybe i will
maybe i wont
one things for certain tho
you are a talentless HACK
>>60347566
I have my music released on vinyl, cd, and cassettes on multiple labels. Keep releasing your music on limited editions of 5 copies on bandcamp on shitty recycled tapes that one or two idiots occasionally will buy when plastered.
>>60347615
OK I WILL. i'll never sperg out when someone on 4chan criticizes my shit tho lol you fag
>>60347651
True, somebody would have to actually listen to your noise to criticize it.
>>60347530
YUH NO AHTIST
YUH NUTHING
>>60347237
I would. Guy's pretty good.
>>60347530
huh
>>60347703
yeah this shit sucks cock
all the tracks sounds the same
i highly doubt anyone would want this shit
on their label and this shits 100% not on
vinyl, fuc you bitch
>>60347470
>>60347421
You should both post your bandcamp so the rest of us can decide which of you sucks more. I'm not digging through your bitchfest to see if they've already been posted.
>>60347965

>>60347971

I saw him on my own last November, very fucking loud, he was shrouded in complete darkness the whole set

Did you have to track all of those down on Discogs or have you been following him for a long time?

goddamn. nice.
>>60347615
>I have my music released on vinyl, cd, and cassettes on multiple labels
...and you believe this validates you somehow? You believe this proves you have "talent"?
I guess there are people like this in every area of music. Whatever gets you to sleep at night, but other people aren't buying into your games of pretend.
>>60348579
I want that shirt so dang bad!!
>>60348920
Yes it does in fact. It means multiple labels saw how talented I am and didn't mind spending cash and using time and effort making a physical release to back that up. Can't say the same about your bandcamp release nobody cares about.
>>60349112
post pics of your vinyl then sperglord, lol

This is the typical noise fan in 2015. No wonder nobody gives a shit about this crappy genre except for mentally challenged folks.
>>60349948

Hasty generalization. A classic fallacy.
>>60349112
>multiple labels saw how talented I am and didn't mind spending cash and using time and effort making a physical release to back that up
You didn't seem to understand my post. How many terrible, terrible acts are out there who have just the same amount of releases and label support that you have? Countless. And they're all complete shit, just like you. That shiny star sticker you're wearing isn't worth the adhesive paper it's printed on.
>>60350257
Name some shitty noise artists that have many releases on different formats on many labels then.
>>60350344
I shouldn't have to give examples to those who are lacking the intellect required to recognize them already.
>>60350383
Exactly. There aren't any.
>>60350401
>There aren't any shitty noise artists that have many releases on different formats on many labels
Do you actually have any experience with noise labels and releases? Not only are you trying to make a completely irrational response, but you've simultaneously invalidated your own words earlier in this thread
I'm sorry to embarrass you like this, but atleast you get to save face by timidly remaining anonymous. remember that while contemplating suicide over the next few days.
>>60350518
You still haven't posted a single artist proving my point. Also I'm not sure why you keep projecting your suicidal delusions so often, I'm sorry you're depressed but I don't see how posting like this is going to improve your mental state.
>>60350401
>>60350518
Stop, you guys are caring way too much at this point. Rec eachother an album and be done with it.

>>60347023
not sure if bait
just because Merzbow's prolific makes him a good (or even the best) noise artist, and your evaluation of Vomir clearly misses the point
> muh variation
give me a break
Merzbow is the hack
Vomir is just nothing
going on a tour soon with my band mate. thinking about opening with noise shit with each set to scare off people before the actual set. is this a good idea?
Whats wrong with Merzbow?
Why is he a hack?
I think he is okay, whats the issue?
I fucking hate it when indie kids try and do noise
I just played a show at an art school and had to sit through an indie girl attempt "noise" and god damn it made me mad when she went on how "rad" noise was but didn't like most noise for being "problematic"
>>60350898
Well go ahead and name a better artist then Merzbow if you can. I want to see what artists you consider better.
>>60351901
I used to keep with a guy who liked some noise but stopped talking to him after he put a "trigger warning" for the inside artwork of merzbuta http://www.discogs.com/Merzbow-Merzbuta/release/533678
>>60347237
where u @ anon ? drive me to troy

Fuck, and they're all originals too it looks like.

I am going to make the executive decision for you Brother. DO IT. So worth it.

MERZBOW makes better seppuku porn.
Though to be fair I don't think VOMIR has tried making seppuku porn.
What's everyone's favorite noise related pornography? I like the one video with the chick cutting herself during a GRUNT show.
I'm getting into BIZARRE UPROAR and he does NOT make very "nice" stuff.
This https://yukikopain.bandcamp.com/album/eyes
>>60354936
>What's everyone's favorite noise related pornography?
Any urolagnia, which is probably why I'm such a big fan of Yellow Tears
>>60354936
>>60354936
>noise-related pornography
I'm waiting for the Rita to make some leg/foot/nylon worship femdom stuff. Bonus if the dom uses HNW to torture her sub
>>60354936
>noise related pornography
too deep for me
Anyone use Matlab or Mathematica to make noise here? I started looking at their audio manipulation capabilities, and their ease with which they can manipulate power spectra seems apt for making noise.
>>60355008
Try beating off to some cattle prod stuff while listening to this gem. http://ventaprotesix.bandcamp.com/album/painful-sexual-perversion
One of my best Saturday nights ever.
you've gotta be pretty clueless about noise and its history to think merzbow's a hack
like his shit or not, but the guy's produced a shitton of genuinely important material
>>60354936
>I'm getting into BIZARRE UPROAR and he does NOT make very "nice" stuff.
that's quite the understatement
it doesn't get much viler than BU/F&V, even by the general standards of finnish noise and post-industrial
>>60355105
I like the understatement of it lol.
I used to say that about STAB. "He does not make nice records"
BU is pretty much the cream of the crop when it comes to that sort of thing. I would feel a little uneasy going to one of his shows lol
>>60355026
There's one guy who does, he put out an album called supercavitation and one other album under ddx-10.
does anyone know where i can find solid information about dom fernow? i've found a lot of interviews obviously, but i'm in need of high quality, in-depth articles or biographies of some sort. anything concerning noise or the philosophy surrounding it would be useful, actually
going to be writing an academic paper analysing his work and his position as an artist
also post rare dom pictures
>>60355636
>I used to say that about STAB. "He does not make nice records"
pretty fitting connection then, considering that the F&V catalog counts several STAB releases
>BU is pretty much the cream of the crop when it comes to that sort of thing.
he's taken things about as far as they can go when it comes to that territory, yeah
i'm not seeing someone outdoing him any time soon, at least not with the the same level of "artistry"
>>60355814
what sorts of information? he's pretty open and talkative in interviews, i'm not sure what else there is to find out that he hasn't talked about in one interview or another or that you can't gleam from his work
>>60356096
that said, here's a couple of scanned rare old zine interviews
this one's 8 pages
>>60356143
mental funeral is the zine in question here, by the way
>>60356202
and when i say old, i really do mean way old
i can't imagine he was more than 20-21 years old when this came out
>>60356220
bonus, coupla reviews of hospital/prurient related shit from the same mag and then i'll move onto the next interview
>>60355814
Here's Dom with Megan Griffin of Nuclear Pig Shit and I think Matt Simmons of Neb is an Isoceles Triangle, probably late 90s.
>>60356259
they're not very interesting or well-written reviews but whatever, at the very worst the releases mentioned are something to look into
>>60356280
And performance as Christmas Trees
>>60356286
second and final review is go, though i posted this one before
i believe this one's from mikko aspa's late 90s/early 2000s magazine, degenerate
>>60356334
and that's all she wrote
did that anon from one of the previous threads ever get around to uploading the vatican shadow collage mag sampler?
I admire Dom so fucking much.
Someone got that picture of him mid-90s with long hair? He was poking his tounge out and it was fucking huge IIRC. Pretty hilarious.
>>60356443
ayyyyy
>>60356474
Damn it's even better than I remember, tounge looks like a succulent chicken breast

I have another 12+ hour album coming out on 1/1/16. What types of things were you looking to do with MATLAB?
>>60356096
>i'm not sure what else there is to find out that he hasn't talked about in one interview or another
yeah, you're most likely right
i suppose in particular i'm looking for credible, "peer-reviewed" sources talking about noise. does anyone have anything to recommend? it would be super useful

also a belated shout-out to the guy who posted the hysterical macronympha zine interview a while ago
does noise reggae exist
>>60357504
>i suppose in particular i'm looking for credible, "peer-reviewed" sources talking about noise.
The book "Japanoise" by David Novak hits that criteria. Published through Duke University Press, it was based on the author's dissertation material as an associate professor at UCSB. There's a link in the /noise/ pastebin but I'm not sure if it's valid anymore.
>>60357543
Merzbuddha is dub-noise, if that counts
>>60358022
Sure you're not thinking of....
Does anyone else experience an overwhelming sense of doom after about 45 minutes of a hnw? I feel it throughout my entire body. Very cool imo.
>>60357504
You're talking about the macronympha bananafish interview right? Do you happen to have a link to it? I can't seem to findicate it anywhere and I remember it being amazing.
>>60358117

ive got it. gonna take awhile but here goes
>>60358128
Thought I had it on my computer but turns out I didn't, so have this instead
i tried listening to this album for the first time a few months ago and stopped listening after a few minutes. i tried a couple times after that and this time i managed to listen to all of it. i cant say i love this album because its so new to me but i was definitely entertained and want to hear more. i especially liked the sounds on slave new desart. where to go from here?
>>60358314
Its cool man, thanks. Love the fan art
>>60358359
check the pastebin my friend
i wish the same two merzbow albums (ven and pulse demon obviously) would stop being thrown around here as representative of noise, because they are honestly really bad entry points and are really not that great
Where is the noise 'scene' in the UK? Is there one?

mate, the whole thing's in here >>60358306
>>60358103
Haven't heard that one. I'll check it out.
Personally, I dig Merzbow's percussion-heavy work
>>60358692
awkward
>>60358692
Thank you for saying that, I totally missed it.
>>60358737
my entire life is painfully awkward in some manner
this is nothing
>>60358617
There's a fucking huge scene in London the dude from Crowhurst was telling me about selling out venues over there when he did his tour in September
>>60354821
>>60354862
>>60354917
Out of those only Incapacitants come close to Merzbow in quality, but Merzbow still wins as he was way more great releases than them.
>>60359567
lol
>>60359567
Yes, Merz has the edge with such a huge discography. You can hear him evolve.
I suggested Incapacitants, and Hijokaidan for that matter, since I hear more energy, something more physical in their work that I respond to more.
With notable exceptions (way more than I've likely heard), Merz is more cerebral and doesn't get my heart racing like those two.
>>60359567
Is this the new thing now? We either dismiss Merzbow as a hack or make claims that no other noise act compares to him? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!
>>60358306
To this day, this is still the best interview I have read with anybody ever.
>They were expecting something like pop musique with little poems and everybody being friendly and European and showing their buttcracks.
>>60351428
your track on this comp is awesome
>>60358617
I'm in Nottingham and I've seen Mutant Ape, Aaron Dilloway, Junko, Vomir, Iron Fist of the Sun, Consumer Electronics, Weise, Sudden Infant, New Blockaders, Con Dom, Cremation Lilly, Knifed out of existence, Radiation Geisha, Pain Jerk, Damien Dubrovnik, Evil Moisture, and a fuckton of others, so yes there is a noise scene in the UK, you just have to go out there and find it. Once you find one gig, the rest is easy, there are probably a handful of people in your town/city interested in noise, they want you to come to their shows, and will keep you informed.
>>60358617
there's plenty of overlapping noise activity in the UK
strange rules and alter are prominent young labels, oldtimers like harbinger sound are still going strong, unrest prod organize events and put out quality releases etc.
you in london? this is going down next year(not the final lineup, more artists are gonna be added to it), unmissable if you're in the area
>>60361153
sick list, what was mutant ape like?
you ever seen smell & quim or filthy turd?
>>60361153
>>60361363
You fucking guys...I asked so many goddamn times where the noise gigs were in London before I went in September. Mother Fuckers...
I went to this club in Vauxhall at six in the morning on Monday. That was alright.
>>60360969
Which one?
And thank you.
Got this today.
Thanks for the extra stuff Tristan.
>>60361588
hey scumbag, gimme some rec for this chart.
>>60348408
gonna put some bizarre uproar on there later. dunno which album to put tho. never listened to them before. whats their hardest album?
>>60361704
>whats their hardest album?
musta rotta's the hardest most disgusting BU i've heard(the artwork is totally fucked as well, even for BU), but that's a 7"
purification's the hardest full-length i think, only some 90s taint tops the repulsiveness of that album
his more recent work(at least under the BU moniker; XE's another story) is all slow moving sludgy shitsmeared dirges, pretty cool but crushes more with atmosphere than harshness
>>60360725
If anything actually thinks Merzbow is a hack they are not a true noise fan. If one is a fan of noise there will be at least a few Merzbow albums that they should like. Unless they just listen to shitty noise wall all the time or something.
>>60359947
Incapacitants and Hijokaidan are in the top 5 noise artists for me, Merzbow is still no.1 though due to his large discography, especially for his late 80's, 90's, and early 2000's releases.
>>60361822
Yeah, that's why i'm asking is 'this the new thing'?
>>60361704
Beware Friend, I'm only a humble American. Don't let me taint the PROPER EUROPEAN NOISE CHART. As this brother >>60361821
said, Musta Rotta is nasty business. You can't top the cover art. That said, I like this one a little better, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbawVv0t9cM that is only the second track from the release.
>>60362010
I've seen people call Merzbow a hack every now and then, but not that often. Most people that call him a hack probably just listened to some of his newer releases and didn't check out his older material.
When does this comp come out OP?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX58LcTgYNI
these dudes are too much
>>60362452
that performance was fucking idiotic
but then again that sort of behaviour is not surprising to see from an american "noise" band.....
>>60362719
Oh holy fuck who was at the Trans Pecos show last week?
I thought it was awesome but they had technical difficulties for like a third of the show.
As said I thought it added to the performance.
Nate flipped everybody off in the beginning when people started clapping for them.
>>60362719
nah mate, i like genocide organ and sutcliffe jugend as much as the next guy but sometimes a man just needs to spin some trip metal
>>60362824
was that the bill that they shared with yellow tears? dream lineup right there
>>60362884
It was the dream line up.
>>60362884
That's what I said! It wasn't technical difficulties. It was TRIP METAL
>>60351901
I'm playing a 6-hour HNW set at my art school's degree show next Saturday. I made a "triggering" poster for it and put it up over campus, can't wait to check my privilege.
>>60363314
oh yeah 6 hours, i love me some hnw. are you purist? i make all mine purist hnw
>>60363355
Could you elaborate on HNW purism? Don't think I've ever heard of that specifically, but I could probably infer. In any case probably not, I like to experiment. Lately I've been sourcing field recordings/acoustic instruments and manipulating them into loops, usually digitally (yeah yeah ">diginoise" w/e).
Also nice get
>>60361822
This is goddamn retarded. There aren't any rules or criteria for being a "true noise fan".
>>60363576
i believe purist HNW refers to the vomir/dead body collection/skonhet etc. school of absolutely static slabs of sound, as opposed to to someone like the rita where some dynamics do exist "behind the wall"
>>60363576
by purist i just mean absolutely no change, like take the rita his stuff changes a little but its still hnw but vomirs stuff doesnt change at all, thats the kind that i meant, either way is fine imo. i would like to start playing with using recordings but id like to find something that i would find interesting to record
>>60363671
yeah this is a great explaination, but i wouldnt consider dead body collection to be purist since they change up sometimes but vomir and skonhet are definitely purist
>>60363587
i'd say that having a sincere interest in noise should go hand in hand with understanding the history of the movement, and there aren't many figures in noise which have as much historical significance as merzbow
i don't even care that much for merzbow but fuck, i acknowledge that the vast majority of noise artists i hold in high regard either wouldn't exist or would exist in a vastly different form if it wasn't for merzbow laying down a lot of the groundwork
>>60363671
Ahh yes I see. I'm a fan of the "monolithic slab" approach but most of my stuff falls into non-purist territory. I'm interested in how the static walls sort of play tricks on your brain as they move along. Soon I want to try replicating that by creating near-imperceptible changes in the wall, where it's dynamic but you have to really be paying attention to notice. Sort of like the Disintegration Loops.
>>60363756
You're more than welcome to think that, and I agree with you about Merzbow's importance, but it's objectively idiotic to imply someone's interest in noise is somehow illegitimate because they don't agree or don't care one way or another.
>>60363823
we're more or less in agreement then
appreciating something and acknowledging its significance are two different things
>>60363936
>we're more or less in agreement then
Yeah, I feel we are.
My only point is that no one, much less anyone here, and specifically much less >>60361822, is in any position to determine who is or is not a proper noise fan. If someone feels they're in a position to do so, they probably don't belong in this scene.
>>60363979
>Proper Noise Fan
Sort of an oxymoron no? I would like to think my noise brothers don't care one way or the other if someone is a 'proper noise fan'. Presenting yourself as a fan of anything requires the appeal to 'popularity'.
I can confidently say most people here (from observation) don't care what the popular consensus is. Those bringing argumentative rhetoric of the validity of 'fandom' are just spill overs from the greater board that is /mu/.
Kind of like calling something 'entry-level'. That implies a hierarchy which does not exist in noise.
Someone once asked me how long I have been in the 'scene' at a noise show. I quietly nipped that explaining I am not part of any 'scene'. Just a fan of harsh tunes. I'm not there to hang out with you people (not you people on /noise/ but you get what I mean).
But hey man I don't make the rules. Nor should anyone.
So why does Vomir always get called a hack? I thought the whole point of noise was to not care about this sort of stuff if you enjoy it
>>60364364
I'm thinking the same thing.
>>60364305
>are just spill overs from the greater board that is /mu/.
this thread's been unusually /mu/esque for /noise/
>>60364364
because he's the most visible HNW artist outside of the rita, and the rita does more than HNW, so he becomes people's standard proxy for their personal distaste of the entire HNW concept.
Any good noise for feeling like I'm gonna get shot in a concert hall?
>>60361363
and it's worth pointing out that this is the first and may very well be the last time koufar makes his way over to the UK
attendance is a must for that reason alone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWnUR24JKZc
>>60364641
the rita's bodies bear traces of carnal violence. also i hope you are okay and this is just a question
>>60364409
I should elaborate on the second part because it's a bit unfair. there are plenty of valid criticisms one can have of vomir. it is true that the vast majority of the stuff he puts out under that name is functionally identical, I just happen to think that works with his whole concept. he has put a lot of thought into the concept behind his work and his live show.
his "noise folk" stuff is beyond obnoxious though.
>>60364702
I'm fine bb, just being edgy

hey guys, i dont know if this belongs in a noise thread but could i get a few recommendations for drone albums? much thanks

I want to hate it because of it's simplicity but that first and last track are pretty cool. I find .mov to get some pretty good results.

Sunn. Khanate, Bell witch if your into doom.
What are some interesting noise releases? I find a lot of noise releases to be monotonous and have trouble holding my attention
things like While You Were Out, Beats Noise and Life, xtoyourmilkyhair, Venereology,Torturing Nurse's work, Thousands of Dead Gods... Albums that have a bit more than just "lol static and dragging my amp cable around the guitar string whoops"
>>60354990
I've always been turned on my his cover art and liner notes and stuff. Any film from him would be fantastic.
>>60366352
I can't seem to find a unifying theme in what you listed but much of what aube does holds my attention very well. flare, cardiac strain, and comet are all quite good.
>>60366585
>I can't seem to find a unifying theme in what you listed
Yeah, sorry, they were all interesting in different regards. I was going for a noise + x theme rather than something more specific they all had in common
WYWO has a huge variety of noises and textures as well as pop song samples, Beats Noise and Life has a bunch of hip hop influence and some cool samples, xtyourmilkyhair is well it's like nothing else really, Venereology has that death metal influence keeping the album cohesive.... Thanks for the recs anon, I'll check 'em out
>>60361688
Oh cool, enjoy.
Hey if you end up doing anything with that software I showed you, we should totally do a digital split some time.
>>60366645
well aube constructs each album from a single sound source so that may fit your "noise + theme" thing. another artist you may want to check out is eric holm, he only has one album out called andoya and it's rhythmic noise made from contact mic field recordings of wind on telegraph wires on an norwegian island north of the arctic circle (I have a boner for acoustomatic noise). it actually does a really great job of getting across the cold, desolate nature of the island.
>>60367116
Sure thing man.
>>60362283
Probably the first of Dec. Not getting much love gotta say, though I've had a few different people contact me since I posted the OP.
>>60367346
I just realized the track I emailed you (Exit) is pretty crap. they're all unlabeled on my comp. I'll get you one of the better ones for consideration.

That album would be more suiting for being stabbed. I watched a ton of giallos this week and couldn't help think "Oh man, I really want to put on THE RITA and watch these movies on mute"
>tfw doing nbbbmn
>>60365128
You are probably gone but pic related is (and I never use this term) objectively the best drone album of all time.
Fair Warning: This is not the super distorted loud drone that has come to be 'popular'. These are very long pieces that have subtle changes. Eliane used one piece of gear for this album. An ARP 2500.
Not for everyone but easily in my Top 10 Albums ever. The word 'unique' should be reserved for artists like Eliane Radigue.
>>60366476
I've never seen someone project this hard before. Seek therapy before it is too late.
>>60367540
Computer noise is the best noise. Stick to dicking around with your pedals making noise nobody cares about that's been done way better by actual good artists that release music on multiple labels on different formats.
>>60369841
Why would anybody waste time buying one when you can have an exact replica on your computer free that lets you save the presets? Stay broke l0l.
>>60369855
that sounds faggy as hell
you're gonna look so gay when you do a live show staring at your computer screen and clicking shit with your mouse lol
>>60369877
You look like a faggot doing live shows in front of your parents who were the only people who showed up.

>>60369927
okay i'll just rape your tight smelly little asshole as hard as i can in front of your parents then faggot. then i'm gonna take your shitty computer and sell it to buy some more pedals, how do you like that, faggot?
>>60369956
Most autistic poster I've seen on here. Kill yourself you disgusting neet.
>>60361363
Mutant Ape was the first noise act i ever saw, and I was just thinking this id the greatest thing I've evr see, heard or felt. He was followed by Nate Young, Dilloway, and then a joint Young Dilloway set, So it just got better and better.
Not seen Smell and Quim, I have seen filthy turd a couple of times.
>>60369961
>thinks computer noise is the best
>thinks i'm autistic for being a real noise musician
lol i bet you dont even have an amp you cunt

Look at this loser, getting all worked up over posts on a Siberian ginseng board.

I do but I rarely use it because computer noise is better sounding then your shitty ass pedals.

My live shows are awesome and almost all real noise fans like them. Sorry you aren't a real noise fan.
>>60370141
You look like a huge faggot performing in front of the 2 people who show up to your show bending over your pedals and looking like you want it in your ass.

no live shows are shite and everyone waits impatiently for you shitty computer noise to end because they wanna see some real shit not some queer with a laptop just click play and stand there doing nothing lol
