Artist Biographies

Tim Burkland is a Seattle-based harsh noise and experimental electronic artist known for his project Takeshita, a solo endeavor active since around 2019 that channels the raw energy and intensity of noise music into abrasive, unfiltered sound collages. Burkland founded the Imploding Sounds label to release his own work and support a prolific roster of underground noise, with Takeshita's output comprising well over 50 releases across tapes, comp records, and cassette editions. The project draws inspiration from both Japanese noise legends and American harsh noise traditions, blending bent circuitry, cut-up processing, and visceral feedback to produce relentless, high-impact sonic assaults described by some listeners as "professional noise wrestling." Burkland's work with Takeshita and other aliases spans studio recordings and live performances, often embracing extreme textures, distorted electronics, and improvisational noise structures rooted in the DIY noise scene.

(Love Earth Music)
Philadelphia sound performer Gladys Nobriga's Street Rat project brings a raw solo noise document to Love Earth Music, with four 2025 studio pieces and a closing live recording from Calvary Center, using DIY electronics, object-based sound, physical gesture and abrasive texture to shape a stark, tactile and confrontational album of pressure, decay, rupture and aftermath.
TRAC (Teddy Ryles / Alexander Cooper)
Cylinder Plus
(Bu Lang Tribute Cake)
The first release from TRAC, the duo of Teddy Ryles and Alexander Cooper, brings together their shared Oberlin TIMARA background and solo electro-acoustic practices in a rigorously processed work built from reconstituted digital artifacts, using spectral decomposition, deformation and iterative procedures to shape dense, unstable electronic forms where texture, residue and structure continually erode and recombine.
+D:A+
III
(Love Earth Music)
Dan Greenwood and Steve Davis fuse noise-driven textures and unpredictable sonic collisions into an uncompromising experimental work on III, channeling their rooted DIY and extreme aesthetics into fractured soundworlds that confront, unsettle, and expand the boundaries of underground audio exploration.
Jaw Surgery
Twelve Spines Facing God
(Love Earth Music)
Operating under the Jaw Surgery moniker, Filipino noise artist Chester Masangya constructs a ritualized power-electronics work driven by distortion, breath, and deliberate restraint, where extended techniques, hostile pressure, and ceremonial pacing collide in a stark, uncompromising exploration of spiritual collapse, sonic violence, and meditative endurance at the outer limits of noise.
Meketa Power Electronics
Suffering
(Love Earth Music)
Steven Meketa, aka Meketa Power Electronics, in a solo work of sermons and electronics channels where Meketa's power electronics evoke a raw, faith-driven expression of endurance and confrontation, using grinding textures, spoken testimony, and sustained intensity to transform personal suffering into a stark and uncompromising sonic statement.

II

Split
(Love Earth Music)
A raw and punishing split release from UK noise artists Abrasion Addict (Joe Fowler) and Animal Machine (Bohr Ernst), presenting studio and live recordings — including a 2017 Brighton performance — of unrelenting sonic extremity, where dense textures, abrasive dynamics, and fractured structures embody the visceral force of the harsh noise underground.
Modelbau
Inlets
(Love Earth Music)

Crossing The Line Between Life And Death
(Love Earth Music)
A split release between two noise artists from opposite sides of the planet: first Greek sound artist Manos Michaelides, aka Ego Death, in a brutal assault of abrasive sound recorded over a decade; then an amalgamation of a live recording from Hiroshi Hasegawa (C.C.C.C.) performing at IAF shop in Fukuoka, Japan and in the studio at Koenji-Minami Studio, in Tokyo, Japan.
