Noise Happening #3
For the third edition, the collective leaves Norway and exports Noise Happening to Nantes, with a local and international line-up. This edition focuses on experimental music, a vast landscape ranging from the brutal noise of the Nantes ensemble DIME to the hypnosis of Marc Caro’s sixties organ. Alongside several young artists of the Nantes scene to discover during this evening, which closes with the new project electronica Mont Fjell.
Noise Happening is an international artistic group. Our goal is to present live multimedia works, concerts and performances. Through concerts and performances in which all the techniques and universes of the invited artists mix to create a metamorphic and multifaceted happening.

DIME Ensemble
- Nantes, France
- Electronic-experimental / Noise
The Ensemble DIME is an open, professional and amateur group that goes beyond the historical schools of electronic music by offering forms of writing and composition without limit in the use of new violin and digital technologies. The ensemble creates its own works collectively by using participative technology : the audience sometimes participates to the composition in real-time using the tools of sound transformation. DIME is an ensemble which develops new links to musical writing and to the interpretation of new compositions. The ensemble can play in concert hall as well as a gallery space, in a neighborhood or on a street corner.

- Norway / France
- Electronica / Experimental-Techno
The melancholy Norwegian meets the french electronic scene where melodies and synth pads of the pianist Fridtjof Wesseltof (NO) combine noisy rhythms of the sound artist Arthur Hureau (FR).
Mont Fjell is a collaboration between club music and mind-blowing atmospheres.
Enerzion & Mad Processor
- Nantes, France
- Hacking Analoglitch / Noise
In wave mechanics, the interferences are the combination of two waves susceptible to interact.
This phenomenon often appears in optics with light waves, also with electromagnetic waves, and with other types of waves such as sound waves.
The meeting between Enerzion and Mad Processor is the creation of a field of interferences as an experimentation of chaotic and hypnotic noise, punctuated by fragments of reality.
Their practice turns around circuit bending, field recording and sound and visual glitches of everyday objects (cathode-ray tv, alarm clock, analog video mixing…)
For the sake of aesthetics and freedom of creation, they are forced to dissect, tinker, modify, and tweak quasi-obsolete machines to extract their raw material.
