::About the 10 Years of Ad Noiseam ::

The Berlin based Ad Noiseam label was born in early 2001 as a creative output for the Recycle Your Ears web magazine, which has been active between 1998 and 2003. Focusing mostly on electronic music, Ad Noiseam is however not restricted to any genres. From the club to the bedroom, from the breakcore of Enduser to the jazz of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble, from the raging beats of Bong-Ra to the dubstep of Matta, Ad Noiseam’s aim is to offer to the biggest possible audience a wide array of genres in electronic music. It should also be added that Ad Noiseam artist come from all over the world, with musicians on this label living in such places as Sweden, Ukraine, the USA, the UK or Germany.

In order to reach this goal, Ad Noiseam is a clearly audience oriented label. Concentrating a lot more on making its releases available all over the world, this label is putting its strength on building a bridge between the artists and their audience, with the help of many live shows, diverse distribution channels and a very intensive promotion. While some other label might work on creating a corporate image, Ad Noiseam’s face to the world is a more varied one, and one which constantly try to present in the best possible way the music at the heart of the label.

Active on its own since 2001, and without the support of any major distributor or media, Ad Noiseam has been growing steadily, becoming a full range label, online mail order and distributor. Ad Noiseam has worked with recognized artists such as Enduser, Bong-Ra, Drumcorps or Panacea, but is also giving a lot of care in bringing exposure to young acts, such as Matta, Niveau Zero, Igorrr or Mothboy. The Ad Noiseam CD and vinyl release are widely reviewed in publications such as The Wire (UK), Grooves (USA), De:bug (Germany), Trax (France), Rock A Rolla (UK), Go Magazine (Spain) as well as countless online publications.

Ad Noiseam acts are performing live all year round, and have taken part in numerous festivals, including the Transmediale, the Dretroit Electronic Music Festival in Chicago, Sweden’s Norbergfestival, Dour, Glade, Bangface, Fusion in Germany or Le Printemps de Bourge in France. Having reached the (for an underground label venerable) age of 10 years in 2011, Ad Noiseam is celebrating with label-oriented festivals in several countries accross the world. Presenting the wide musical array of the label in high profile locations in a variety of countries, these parties should be both a coming- together for the fans and a way for others to discover the many sides of Ad Noiseam. These parties will happen in the Spring and the Autumn of 2011, the confirmed dates so far being:

-May 6th in Berlin (DE) at Berghain

-May 14th in Luzern (CH) at Südpol

-May 28th in Utrecht (NL) at Tivoli de Helling

-June 1st in Paris (FR) at Batofar

-July 9th in Beirut (LB)

::About Broken Note::

The project of two young and particularly angry Britons (one of which later went to act as 16 Bit), Broken Note shattered doors, ears and subwoofers in 2008 with a salvo of records on Ad Noiseam, Peace Off and Ruff. Their mixture of high definition sound, punk attitude, sheer energy and (let’s face it), freshness propelled this duo in no time to the forefront of both the dubstep and the hard drum’n’bass scene.

A couple of years later, Broken Note has kept on releasing on Ad Noiseam, but has also collaborated with high names of the current electronic music world, such as Amon Tobin, Cooh or Machine Code. Very prolific in the studio, Broken Note have also been relentlessly touring, playing myriads of shows in the UK, continental Europe and both Americas, and participating to many festivals, such as Glastonbury, Bangface or Maschinenfest. Judging from the impressive feedback and recognition gathered in only a couple of years by Broken Note, it has become very clear that this act is one to be counted on, and one of the major players of tomorrow (if not today) for anybody into hard, punk-ridden electronic music.

::About Igorrr::

Brace yourself, it’s a wild ride that the one on which you embark with Igorrr. The solo project of the young but still very experienced frenchman Gautier Serre has quickly shot to the pantheon of all things hard and electronic, and intends on staying there. A sound engineer by trade, Serre is the perfect example of a careful soundsmith working with his ears wide open and his tongue firmly planted in his cheeks. Citing 17th century classical music and death metal as his main influences, he insolently mixed the fastest of breakcore with the most elegant of baroque compositions, grindcore screams and absurd, everyday life samples. The best part? It all fits perfectly together, for a particularly exhilirating result. Crowds after crowds can not be wrong: since the release of “Nostril” on Ad Noiseam in 2010, Igorrr has become a very sought-after act, playing every week all across Europe.

::About The Teknoist::

Known for his over-the-top live performances, his audio excesses and his relentless touring, Manchester’s Miike Hayward has been shattering his audience’s eardrums since the early of 2000’s. Not a man to waste any minute, he released his very first record on none other than Deatchant, then moving on to other prestigious labels as Planet Mu, Peace Off or Cock Rock Disco, before joining forces with Ad Noiseam in 2008 with both a split 12” with Eustachian (the “Pillaged and Plundered” EP) and his first full length album, “…Like A Hurricane Made Of Zombies”.

Over the years, The Teknoist has become one of the leading names of the breakcore scene, with residences in several clubs in the UK and the Netherlands, tours all over the world and collaborations with many high profile producers (such as King Cannibal, Drumcorps or Mu-Ziq), several of which were presented as part of his second full length album, “Trainwreck Magnetism”, released on Ad Noiseam in 2011. An essential figure of the British hardcore scene, Miike Hayward is also a regular contributor to Core Magazine, as well as an event promoter, throwing parties in Manchester and having made name for himself by helping newcomers get shows and records out.

::About Nicolas Chevreux::

The founder of the Ad Noiseam label, Nicolas Chevreux has been active promoting music since the mid 90’s, when he ran a weekly radio show on his home-town of Grenoble, France before relocating to Berlin and creating the Recycle Your Ears web-zine, which pioneered the genre of music blogs before the turn of the century.

Spawning from a one-off experiment, Ad Noiseam became a full fledged label in 2001, and has ever since became one of the longest running and most productive house for challenging, left-of-center electronic music worldwide. Bringing such acts as Bong-Ra, Enduser, Broken Note or Larvae to the front stage, Ad Noiseam strives to produce and promote a wide array of quality-controlled electronic music.

In parallel to his activities as a label manager, Nicolas Chevreux has been DJ-ing regularly since the mid-90’s, often touring with bands from Ad Noiseam and performing at festival worldwide DJ sets, interviews and profiles about him and Ad Noiseam have appeared on RFI, Arte, TV Berlin, ResonanceFM, BBC1, Electronic Explorations and countless magazines.

::About ENDUSER::

Lynn Standafer, better known as Enduser, undoubtedly counts as the better known, most active and highest praised breakcore producers. Shooting his way through the 2000’s with salvoes of EPs and albums as well as constantly touring all over the world, Enduser has grown from being a driving force of this sound to one of its best embodiment and most recognized figure.
Synonymous for a music which marries carefully laid melodies with unrestrained aggression, Enduser has received praises from all sorts of horizons for the way he manages to entice a sense of beauty in the midst of broken and pummelling beats. If hard electronic music can ever be recognized as having a soul, it is throughout Enduser’s output that this gets best demonstrated. Enduser has played too many high-profile shows and festivals to list, and has amassed an impressive discography, which features several highly successful records and tracks. His music has been recognized as heavily influential in many genres, ranging from drum’n’bass to metal. Enduser has also collaborated with artists ranging from drum’n’bass heavyweights Dylan or DJ Hidden as with rock and metal legends Jarboe (of the Swans), Justin Broadrick (Godflesh, Jesu) or Bill Laswell.
