Various Artists – Oh! Moro volume 5 (with guest Jesse Sanes)

We got together with Jesse Sanes (Cleanse, Liebestod) to watch the classic “Oh! Moro volume 5” VHS. It was cool to see footage of Osaka after having been there, let alone revisiting some classic noise sets from Merzbow, Monde Bruits, Masonna and more!

For the ExtraNoisextra on the patreon, we talk about the new Cleanse tape and how Greh and Jesse work together. This 20 minute segment immediately follows the episode on the patreon feed.

Notstandskomitee – Maschinenberichte (with guest Shane English)

Shane English returns to give us some 90s industrial obscurity with Notstandkomitee “Maschinenberichte.” A very rare tape from 1992 on the project’s own Block 4 label, we all come out with different favorites and get sent to different planes. As usual, Shane has some great background info and insights to fill in the blanks. Hear the sounds of the parasite today!

For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, we basically have an entire other episode as Shane talks about related tapes, other listening and much more. This 40 minute segment follows immediately after the regular episode on the patreon feed.

In Conversation with Murderous Vision

Stephen Petrus returns to the podcast to talk about the brand new book celebrating 30 years of Murderous Vision.

We always look forward to talking with Stephen as Murderous Vision is a favorite project of Noisextra.

For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, Petrus provided patrons with a full live set recording from Mistake by the Lake in Cleveland on May 31, 2024. This live show immediately follows the episode on the patreon feed.

In the Studio with Sonambule

Greh and Hank (Sonambule) have been getting their shared Hollywood studio in action, and Mike came over to sit down with them and go over the progress. Greh has been going hog wild on making the studio a great space. We also talk to Hank about his project Sonumbule and how he utilizes the space.

For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, Greh has made another mix to bring the noise summer directly to you.

In Conversation with Thomas Moore

Author Thomas Moore joins us for a great conversation. Many of his novels have been published by Amphetamine Sulfate, including his newest book “Your Dreams.” We get into the many subjects of his writings…cruising, dreams, language and more. Thomas has been orbiting and into noise for many years and we attempt to connect the dots throughout this episode.

For the ExtraNoisextra on the patreon, Thomas has provided some out of print writing for patrons to read.

In Conversation with Ike Yard (Stuart Argabright & Michael Diekmann)

We found ourselves in the empty dark alleyways of early ’80s NYC with Stuart Argabright and Michael Diekmann of the legendary Ike Yard. Stuart and Michael take us through their entire history up to today. We also get into Stuart’s band Black Rain, his work with William Gibson, and plenty more. Ike Yard sits in a unique and strange place in the dark underground, and this discussion keeps the paranoia alive.

For the ExtraNoisextra segment on the patreon, we get into what Ike Yard was like live in the early 80s as well as the process of reforming the band in the 2000s. This segment is in the middle of the episode on the patreon feed.
