"Roggbif Records - Purveyors of Fine Norwegian Noise." (feature)
Sten Ove Toft has been of a mainstay of Norwegian Noise for sometime 
and his Roggbif label is turning out some of the most interesting and 
aggressive music from the genre. The first time I met him however, it 
was a somewhat quiet affair. I had received a txt msg from someone 
saying "You should like this" a time and an address.

"Clair / Shahar 'Avner's Arrival'" (review)
John Clair and Jed Shahar record a session of 'electro acoustic 
improvisation'. This is news to the security guard whose venue they are 
in. An interesting conversation develops.

"Eavesdropping" (review)
Blind people are not casual listeners. Blind since birth, Stephen 
Kuusisto recounts the surprise that comes when we are actively 
listening to our surroundings. There is an art to eavesdropping.

"Helicoids / Psychotic Breaks Mix CD - Alex Young" (review)
In June 06 Alex Young created a special continuous mix for the 
Furthernoise Month Of Sundays live A/V event in London. Combining 
tracks from two of his releases, psychotic breaks and Helicoids. The 
result was a thirty-minute trip into frenetic beats, glitch textures, 
flowing synthesizer ambience and melodic tones.

"SuperTexture by Gary Smith" (review)
SuperTexture throws away post-processing and effects, leaving just Gary 
Smith, his guitar and amp to take us on a journey of virtuoso guitar 
experimentation. The first disc, Smith's solo work, is pure guitar and 
amp. The second disc features guests exploring each improvisation 
through their own interpretation.

"Terraform EP - Razing Darkness" (review)
The journey begins with ominous bass drones and industrial machine 
noise in the track Gravity Damage. Its evident that we are exploring 
planetary territories through alien droid transmissions. Headphones are 
recommended if you prefer to maximize the dizzying array of stereo 
panning and acoustic mind fuck.
