11/24-25/06 NOIShanghai VI- Yu Yin Tang (Day 1) Live Bar (Day 2)(Shanghai, China) The NOIShanghai VI concert event at Yu Yin Tang and the Live Bar offered great performance from all performers involved. The first of the two day monthly showcase was somewhat structured so that each of the acts performed their own set. The second night yielded a more improvised and collaborative performance where all acts performed in whole or in part with each other. Audrey Chen (US) and Alessandro Bosetti...

Experiment III is the latest release from Noise Research. Minimal in its approach, the songs are organized in such a way that takes you on a journey of a dream- it has a beginning, a climax, and an end. Sounds and samples are gently combined creating an ominous soft web where your ears sleep until the pleasant nightmares from the “Flow Of Heat” start setting in. Then you are silently taken back down to where you came from ready to start the day with a hearty breakfast and a cup of coffee....

On an early quiet Sunday afternoon, a light rain blankets sleepy Shanghai. Something was brewing at the Live Bar in Shanghai. But things were not all quiet for very long- Noishanghai IX was taking place and it woke the dead. Opening with Torturing Nurse it was just the jump in icy water that we needed for this event. As usual, TN never disappoints delivering massive walls of sound and screams. Vavabond was next with great noise weaving in and out of a heavy waterfall of static. Teasing you with...

Location: Sweden Equipment: Distortion pedals, 4 track cassette studio, wavelab, psycle sequencer Description: This project started as a experiment for me to explore sound creation. I came up with the name SLAV (slave in english) almost immediately, at the time i was listening a lot to a old swedish hardcore act called Libresse, and they had a song called "slav". I was going through some strange phases during the recording of this material. Distorted.

Great solo performances from Rolf-Erik Nystrom and one song with Torturing Nurse. Rolf's solos used unorthodox saxophone ligature techiniques with inventive sound manipulation to create a very visual and dramatic performances. With the addition of Torturing Nurse (Junky & Xu Cheng) in the third song, acoustic and electric were complemented perfectly. At times The sax sounded like part of the electronics only recorgnizable by the breaths between sounds. The encore ended with a short personal...

Her films, through an organic and dreamlike aesthetic, share a sense of simplicity that teeter on a delicate line between the lovely and cruel. As best seen in 'On a School Day', Michele's films remark upon instances and images of tradgedy and the surreal, as well as moments of comedy, ironic and...

One of our all-time favorite releases, Father Fabric weaves field recordings into warped loops and very lofi sounds reminiscent of the times of Analog tape reel loops. 'Play' is great example of this. This was released as part of our first installation in 2003. -Bivouac

With dreamy live vocal samples combined with the improvised performance of random objects, it really was a great way to introduce the night. Casse Ufficio Malattie Tropicali was next performing on some borrowed equipment from Torturing Nurse. A group from Italy studying Chinese at Fudan, some of them...

Donki Ra began as an outlet for harsh-noise and theatrical gimmicks...the glitz and glam that noise should be. Focusing on the sexual, perverse, and grotesque, I aim to keep things as simple yet difficult as possible. Noise found its way into my life when Merzbow's "Venereology" arrived at my home while I was in the 7th grade, changing me forever.
