    Artist description
    Sexual intercourse is an activity that would make for appropriate background music while listening to Noisefloor. Orgasmic vocal exclamations would only serve to enhance the organic, yet strangely haphazard progression of the aural stimuli that is Noisefloor. It has been said that if the sonic elements of rock, breakbeat, trance, ambient, and hardcore were combined with the philosophy of punk and the aesthetics of a good horror film, then Noisefloor would toy with this entity and then throw it away. Being the immodest type, however, Noisefloor would make the appropriate apology and make love to that which had been previously discarded.

    Artist History
    Known as "Omni" during the mid- to late-eighties, the music of Noisefloor began highly reliant upon acoustic rhythmic elements and motifs. However, with the full-length release "Plastic Trust" in 1990, digital sampling and noise loops found their place amongst the intense drumming. Since the music often embraced ominous ambient "soundscapes" and complex atmospheres, Noisefloor was deemed fit to score the soundtrack for the horror film "Dark Highways". (After a couple of brief transitions under the monikers "Eine" and "Level", the outfit decided on its current name, thereby establishing the first time it had ever gone beyond two syllables.) The current direction finds the music concentrating more on the art of songwriting, with Noisefloor's musically subversive trademark sound intact.
