Noiseof

April 21, 2026

We spoke to the excellent Noiseof, as he was putting the finishing touches to his sprawling 144-patch Digitone II Sound Pack, Rhizomorphosis.

What’s your current creative approach to your creative projects or making music?

I don’t really think in terms of tracks. I build systems environments where sound can evolve, destabilize and reorganize itself. The goal is not control, but tension between control and unpredictability.

What must a machine or instrument have in order for it to stick around in the studio?

It needs to resist me in some way. Either through limitations or a strong character. If an instrument feels too smooth or too predictable, it disappears quickly. I’m more interested in tools that push back and create friction.

What role does experimentation play in your music-making process?

Experimentation is the process. Most ideas come from pushing a sound beyond its intended use until it breaks or becomes something else. Composition happens inside that instability.

Are there any non-musical influences that have shaped your sound?

I’m influenced by systems natural, digital, social. Repetition, mutation, imbalance. Also visual environments: raw spaces, minimal structures, places where things feel slightly unstable. That translates directly into how I shape sound.

You changed your artist name, is there any specific reason why?

Noiseof came from a shift in focus. Less about music as a format, more about sound as material. Noise as something physical, something that can be shaped, fragmented and reorganized.

Last new artist that wowed you?

Shai FM - a San Francisco Bay Area artist influenced by house, techno and UK bass. I really like the balance between raw rhythmic energy and more abstract textures. It feels stripped down but constantly shifting, with a strong physical impact.
