Title: Nor Noise: 12 Expressions About Noise Music (2004)
Post by: 13 on February 01, 2015, 03:20:52 AM
Don't know if this documentary has been shared here before (I couldn't find anything on it by using the search function). Maybe a bit too much of an art school/academic approach? It seems like a lot of people think their way into the Noise genre and always end up approaching it from that angle. I would've preferred something a bit more personal, but I ended up finding the "history lesson" pretty enjoyable anyway. Any thoughts?

It's nice document. It's kind of strange to think its already so old. Meaning 10+ years. To me seems like it just came out while ago. I don't want to be too bitchy about technical stuff, but of course ideal document would be more than "talking heads". Over here you got decent amount of live footage and such, but in moments where you watch some guy sitting for long periods of time, explaining things, one could think perhaps some kind of editing clips of other footage as visuals would work out better than watching just the guy talking? Of course one can't expect utmost perfection, and I'm 100% ok with someone just getting document done. Would hope more would emerge. Even very limited time frame or subject matter. Also this one, perhaps JUST Norwegian noise could have been good. It's kind of odd to have suddenly English man lecturing of history of noise or Masami's magickal muted talk?
But anyone into watching noise documentaries, this is well above People Who Make Noise, kind of same approach and length & editing like City Ruins, except not so long live clips. Deeper and more details than Finnish noise documentary.

I'd like to see something like that happen. Small 20-30 min documentaries with a tight focus on one artist, release etc. That would be really interesting.
