Practising live electronic noise and ambience

Practising making electronic noise with my laptop. It's not pre-recorded, I'm using a live jam sequencer software with various samples and sounds I've made and that can be manipulated in real time individually.

Sorry it's not very loud, I didnt have my laptop plugged into speakers and it's just how it's recorded. So get it cranked up and preferably use some earphones! heh

Noise/power electronics and making any form of noise and music is something I enjoy in my spare time, I've just started using software to create stuff live and this is more on the ambient side. I've used my work in my short films before (which are on my youtube page). I'm influenced by Merzbow, twodeadsluts onegoodfuck, whitehouse, Wolf Eyes and various others. This is just practising and it's not completely polished, but I think there's some nice moments of noise and ambience in there.

**THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT FOR EVERYONE, IF YOU'RE NOT A FAN OF THIS KIND OF THING DON'T WATCH!********

From WIKI; Noise music is one of several genres of music that feature nontraditional musical instruments. Noise music may incorporate, for example: manipulated recordings, static, feedback, live machine sound, circuit bent instruments, non-musical vocal elements, or any other noise source. Practitioners and aficionados of the genre themselves do not generally refer to it as "noise music", preferring the term "noise".

Japan
Originally influenced by the sounds of European bands like Whitehouse and the Italian non-musician Maurizio Bianchi, Japanese noise artists pushed this approach to an extreme of loudness and density, which in turn became a major influence on western noise bands. Sometimes known as "Japanoise" (a pun not just in English, but even in Japanese: ジャパノイズ), it is usually associated with "harsh" characteristics including walls of white noise, non-linear pulses, arrhythmic beats, distorted sound loops, unintelligible dialogue, and sirens.
Since the late 1980s this Japanese style has been probably the most prolific and noticeable part of the noise music scene. Likewise the popularity and prolific output of musicians such as noise music figurehead/posterboy Merzbow have made Japan something of a Mecca for many noise fans.
