What the no wave and punk-funk artists here built in near-total obscurity went on to shape dance music, indie rock, and avant-garde composition for decades after the scene burned itself out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSoul Jazz Records' new edition of their classic New York Noise: Dance Music from The New York Underground 1978-82 freshly remastered and loud. \/\/ \"\"New York Noise is a comprehensive look at the post-punk and no wave era, a short period in time whose influence is still immeasurable and sensed today.\"\" The Guardian \/\/ \"\"One of the most satisfying archival collections, Soul Jazz's compilation New York Noise 1978-1982, gathers far-reaching tracks from such diverse acts as Liquid Liquid, Material, and Glenn Branca.\"\" Pitchfork \/\/ This new 2026 edition features classic New York post-punk, punk funk, synth wave and no wave tracks from Arthur Russell\/Dinosaur L, James White and the Contortions, The Theoretical Girls, Mars, Konk, Material, Bush Tetras, Lizzy Mercier Descloux alongside rare tracks by the likes of Alan Vega (Suicide), Chain Gang and Implog. \/\/ 'New York Noise' sums up the point in time and space where dance music and punk rock first met as New York's No Wave artists such as Glenn Branca, James White alongside New York dance music's experimental pioneers such as Arthur Russell (Dinosaur l), Bill Laswell (Material), and Konk created new musical art forms out of this union. The album comes complete with original extensive sleeve notes and exclusive photography. \/\/ \"\"Compilations like this are necessary because they document bygone fragments of time and keep them alive for younger generations. Compilations like this are dangerous because they tend to fall in the hands of young bands who spend more time looking behind than ahead.\"\" All Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Optimo (2:42)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Contort Yourself (4:22)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Elephant (4:18)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Holland Tunnel Drive (7:42)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5. Son of Sam (3:12)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6. You Can't Be Funky (2:42)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7. Reduction (5:25)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8. Helen Forsdale (2:29)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9. Wawa (2:22)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10. You Got Me (3:53)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11. Baby Dee (6:02)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12. 3-E (2:50)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13. Too Many Creeps (4:01)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e14. Pini, Pini (2:25)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e15. Bye Bye Bayou (8:33)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e16. Breakfast (3:27)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5026328105291\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soul Jazz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.25.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"relix.shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48073082896545,"sku":"207543880","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/7038\/5569\/files\/packshot-soul-jazz-records-presents-new-york-noise-dance-music-from-the-new-york-underground-197-cd-relix.jpg?v=1791947391","url":"https:\/\/store.consequence.net\/products\/soul-jazz-records-presents-new-york-noise-dance-music-from-the-new-york-underground-1978-82-cd","provider":"Consequence Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
