"I stood with my hands in my pockets and started to walk, on my own, going nowhere in particular." -temp home for all the (am i supposed to put 'infamous' here?) NWW list seekers-
by the time i snapped out of it, there was nothing left.
Not going to be just 'Listing' around here, going to just post what I feel like postin' again. There'll almost certainly be NWW List posts mixed in though so don't worry too much.

Hijokaidan (?
???
, lit. "emergency stairway") is a Japanese noise and free improvisation group with a revolving lineup that has ranged from two members to as many as fourteen in its early days. The group is the project of guitarist Yoshiyuki "Jojo" Hiroshige (Japanese; ?
???
, JOJO??) its one constant member, who is head owner of the Osaka-based Alchemy Records.
Other regulars include Jojo's wife Junko and Toshiji Mikawa (also of Incapacitants). The group began at the very end of the 1970s as a performance art-based group whose anarchic shows would often involve destruction of venues and audio equipment, food and garbage being thrown around, and on-stage urination. As the group's lineup changed over time, their focus became less performance-based and more musically based, fine-tuning their sound into a dense wall of white noise created by each member making as much of a racket as humanly possible.

As y'all know, things have been kind of slow 'round here. Going to try livening this place up a little, hopefully I'll eventually get back to posting more regularly..
Here's a treat from a nice friend of White Noise who brought a few albums to my attention and offered up some free stuff..
-from our friend--
Obliqsound put together a remix album, featuring artists on their label (Renovation Unlimited, Tama Waipara, Grand Pianoramax, etc,) remixed by contemporaries such as Osunlade, Mark de Clive Lowe, Matthew Herbert, Nuspirit Helsinki, and Truby Trio.
The unique part though, is that they also brought famed industrial designer Karim Rashid (Alessi, Prada, Method) in to design the CD as well as a accompanying limited edition carrier
