What are the limits of what can be achieved with effects pedals used as instruments, with no external input?!?
Groundbreaking eponymous debut album from composer/researchers Lee Westwood and Danny Bright. Noise Peddler are a symmetrical duo of no-input pedalboards, walking the line between composition and improvisation, experimental noise and melodic hooks.Their music explores the possibilities of a performance where effects pedals are the signal generator, processor, and sole interface.
This exciting, deep-cut 8 track album ranges from ‘Jansky”s glitchy space static, through the sawing synth-like harmonies and melodic solos of ‘Soft Stepper’ to the hard hitting Ragga beats of ‘Screaming Death’. Noise Peddler’s music is unconventional, deeply creative and utterly irresistible
Between them, award-winning artists Danny and Lee have composed for the LSO Ensemble, Riot Ensemble, MusArc and many others, have had works presented in Saatchi Gallery, Wigmore Hall, MOMA NYC and have performed extensively across the world inc Australia, Canada, UK and Europe.
