It’s widely accepted that noise and music are two different things.

But what actually is music? Is it just mere entertainment, the true origin of human language, or simply a function of evolution?

And what is noise? Is it pollution of our acoustic ecology, “unwanted” sounds, electrical hums, clicks and static, or just a random stream of numbers?

We seem to understand what both these words mean.

I believe that noise has it’s place in music, or at the very least as an element of electronic music production.
That’s why I loaded the Fast Tracker II executable file into itself as audio and experimented with it as a rhythmical element in “where do I start?” In 2004, and also included a part of "pure noise". During an experiment, the outcome is unknown. I think I got mixed reactions on the noise part.

Released in the musicdisk "iHyper" by Backtrack.

During a period where you could suddenly "access" any kinds of weird music on the internet, I discovered that "noise" was actually a musical genre and found it intriguing.
