http://www.zeronoise.org hear me We created this website and these podcasts out of hubris, low self-esteem and a deep need to share what we love most. Each one is an attempt (and undoubtedly a failure) to create something perfect, a moment where the music comes together to mean something. There is no style, no accepted wisdom, no obvious point or goal to this exercise. There is only the music. Because music is best. en Copyright (C) 2007 Zero Noise Tue, 06 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT Wed, 07 Nov 2007 18:00:00 GMT Count Zero and Wyatt Nuys rock, punk, beat, electronica, randomness, 70s, 80s, 90s, dorks no Episode 18: The crisp, cool weather and fall foliage make the perfect backdrop for this collection of deviant rockers. Make sure parents and/or children are out of earshot and crank it up to 11 for full effect. Come on feel the Noise! http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/Rocktoberfest.mp3 Wed, 07 November 2007 18:00:00 GMT Count Zero 41:17 Episode 17: ¡Muchas nuevas musicas, por favor! http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/wyatt-011007.mp3 Wed, 07 November 2007 18:00:00 GMT Wyatt Nuys 53:25 Episode 16: Welcome to installment 2 of the great Electro Saga. In this episode, tight-assed white people coerce bleats and brrapps from their computers in hope of inciting the palsied shaking that passes for dancing in small underground nightclubs from Sheffield to Dortmund. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/Digital_(Electro_2).mp3 Wed, 07 November 2007 18:00:00 GMT Count Zero 52:40 Episode 15: What better way to understand our world than by listening to its sounds. With music from China, Portugal, Cape Verde, Cuba, Algeria, Italy, France, Australia, Sénégal, Mali, Haïti, Niger, Jamaica, Nigeria, Cameroon, Congo, Turkey, India & England, this podcast will allow you to feel the difference! http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/globalloop.mp3 Wed, 04 July 2007 22:52:00 GMT Hurtin Man 97:27 Episode 14: A who’s who of crucial artist in the techno industrial and dark industrial world. These tracks are mostly instrumental and all fast-paced. Warning : may cause seizures or cardiac episodes. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/loudandnoisy.mp3 Tue, 26 June 2007 12:40:00 GMT Minifee 41:34 Episode 13 http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/anger_mgmt.mp3 Tue, 26 June 2007 12:30:00 GMT Wyatt Nuys 46:48 Episode 12: I can't think of any single thing that binds these songs together except that they all feel like one moment in time. This is my soundtrack for the summer. Don't ask me why, but these songs feel like the summer I want to have. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/thedifference.mp3 Fri, 08 June 2007 14:23:00 GMT Count Zero 59:40 Episode 11: There is so much to listen to today, so much to choose from... There was an age when musicians wrote music not for the airwaves but for themselves. Let us indulge ourselves and take the time to listen, experience and trip! http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/hurtinmix_1.mp3 Fri, 08 June 2007 14:23:00 GMT Hurtin Man 97:04 Episode 10: Some of these are urban songs sung with a country twang. Some are in the purest country tradition with a little edgy instrumentation to bring them up-to-date. But they all have an essence that I think of as being undeniably and authentically American Roots. No sane person likes the junk they play on CMT. But If you are someone who says that you don't like country or folk music at all - give this a listen and tell me what you think. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/countrygrammar.mp3 Fri, 08 June 2007 14:23:00 GMT Count Zero 58:24 Episode 9: Fantasies, love songs, and other fables trace a long tradition of celebration and storytelling in music, right up to date. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/roundtrip.mp3 Wed, 09 May 2007 23:00:00 GMT Wyatt Nuys 47:29 Episode 8: You may be familiar with some of these songs or bands. But one of the key features of Twee, other than a complete lack of testosterone, is its small label, DIY credo. So very few of these bands are household names. There are only two main types of Twee, inexplicably happy and exaggeratedly wistful. Here is a beginners sampler of Twee treats in both flavours. http://www.zeronoise.org/countzer0/tweedledee.mp3 Tue, 08 May 2007 13:00:00 GMT Count Zero 51:54 Episode 7: 1983 called and Peter Hook wants his baseline back. And oh, the Gang of Four are pissed. I enjoyed the 80s the first time around - maybe not the oddly buttoned shirts… but pretty much everything else. These bands are mostly too young to remember the 80s as anything but schoolyards and runny noses. But they have chosen to steal from the best. Enjoy the 80s all over again… it’s almost like having been there. http://www.zeronoise.org/countzer0/80sredux.mp3 Tue, 08 May 2007 13:00:00 GMT Count Zero 73:14 Episode 6: Pleasing melodies, catchy lyrics and more hooks than a ProBass fishing tournament. Each of these songs is a perfect pop moment, a gem, a piece of rock hard candy to be enjoyed again and again. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/diamondmine.mp3 Thu, 05 Apr 2007 14:32:00 GMT Count Zero 51:33 Episode 5: These are the bastard children of OMD and Ultravox. But somewhere along the way synthpop seems to have lost its appeal to the mass. This isn't thumping techno or chill-out room ambient, this is just pretty pop songs set to the sweet, sweet sounds of computer-love. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/electronicposture.mp3 Mon, 02 Apr 2007 13:00:00 GMT Count Zero 52:14 Episode 4: We're building something, here. If only we knew what. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/dashandderringdo.mp3 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT Wyatt Nuys 49:44 Episode 3: Take a brief excursion with a group of artists who create soundscapes and songs that are as unexpected and unfamiliar as they are compelling. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/slightlyaskew.mp3 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT Count Zero 51:52 Episode 2: Not all progress is good, and so it goes that not all prog rock is good. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/letsartrock.mp3 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT Wyatt Nuys 50:51 Episode 1: In the music biz, the deck is already stacked against women. But even more so against women who want to make highly-individual, non-mass market music. http://www.zeronoise.org/mp3/exmachines.mp3 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 05:00:00 GMT Count Zero 52:18
