Technoise / Hyware by Hyware / Technoise

Captured between 1993 and 1994: sounds carved from vinyl using a piezo mic fixed to a dog’s brush—destruction as creation. The raw signal, funneled through a dying cassette deck, emerged mangled, unpredictable, alive.

Hyware / Technoise is the noise project of Radboud Mens who started creating noise-machines in 1988. In the early 90’s he attached contact-microphones to dog’s brushes that he used to destroy vinyl records by scratch-playing them, boosting the signal through broken cassette-decks and recording the results. Those got released in Japan and the UK in1995/96.
