Noise CDs

Posted by atari2600land, 10 February 2012 · 265 views

Lately I've been infatuated with noise CDs. The idea that somebody can make a whole bunch of electronic noises without having any music on them and then putting that noise onto a CD and then selling them. I also like listening to them. Right now I'm listening to one I made. Yep, I made a noise CD. And if you like them, head over to my http://www.atari2600...ncomingtraffic/ "Left Turn Yield To Oncoming Traffic" website (that's the name of my noise CD thingy.) I was able to make a whole bunch of weird noises with my 25-year-old keyboard (that is missing part of an A key but still works!) Back then, they made things built to last! The thing is about as old as I am and I still use it. I had begun work on my noise CD in May and then just completely forgot about it until I rediscovered the noise CDs I bought. I put the Wicked King Wicker one in a proper CD holder (It still had the back insert with it.), but it has a folded crease. Some of the weird stuff on my LTYTOT CD are: track 5 begins with a creaking chair, tracks 4 & 5 have a guitar, track 2 begins with an R.O.B. going up, track 4 has a test pattern noise. I've discovered that the cable channel Oxygen has a test pattern daily from 3-6 am. I taped a half-hour's worth of it in case they decide to replace it with infomercials. I have noticed that my chair creaks when I sit on it and was looking for noises, and I thought it was perfect! I did injure myself during the making of this. I suspect it's the guitar's fault. I had to remove a little skin I killed and now I have a small hole on my left thumb that's trying to heal. I'm already in the planning phase of another LTYTOT album. Looking through a book of funny signs, some possibilities of an album name have popped up: "Appearing Live: Alaskan Crab Legs," "Chicken Beast," to name a couple, but I think the best one is a newspaper ad boldly saying "Carl Peed For Sheriff." The poor guy's last name has to be Peed, but it does sound as though the sheriff wanted Carl to pee and so he did while the sheriff watched.
