THE NOISE MUSEUM BY MIKE STARLING: "A supersonic head trip through the 20th century" –LAX Magazine
The Noise Museum is a unique entry in the Starling discography. Working in a tiny basement studio with one of the first consumer 4-track cassette recorders, he created a mind-bending 30-minute sonic collage fusing found sound and spoken word with deep bass grooves, jazzy guitar chords, atmospheric textures and low-tech machine beats.
The sound bites are culled from everything from vintage radio shows to historic speeches, news reports and selections from interviews Starling conducted during his days as a newspaper reporter.
Originally released in a limited cassette run in 1993, this long-form electronic psycho dub mashup has been out of print for decades. Now, to commemorate the project's 30th anniversary, the original Noise Museum analog stereo mix has been restored and optimized for digital re-release.
