noisewhether

Noisewhether is an electronic music project founded in 2003 by American musician and artist Ben Jones. The project is known for its experimental and ambient soundscapes, often incorporating elements of noise and minimalism.

Noisewhether's music is characterized by its use of ambient textures and atmospheric sound effects, which create a sense of sonic space and depth. The project's sound often features a mix of distorted synths,plers and other electronic instrumentation, with minimal drum patterns and repetitive melodies.

The project's name is a play on words, blending the idea of noise and weather, suggesting a transitory and ephemeral quality to the music. This approach reflects the project's experimental and free-form approach to composition, where each piece is often a unique response to a specific mood or atmosphere.

Noisewhether's output is limited to a series of self-released albums and EPs, as well as occasional live performances. The project's discography is marked by a consistent focus on texture and atmosphere, resulting in a body of work that is both cinematic and introspective.

Reactions to Noisewhether's music have been varied, with some critics praising the project's innovative approach to electronic music, while others have criticized its perceived lack of melody or structure. Regardless, the project's influence can be seen in a number of subsequent experimental and ambient acts, and its unique approach to sonic experimentation continues to attract attention from fans of noise and electronic music.
