Exactly seven years ago, we decided to disband. Back then, we tried everything we could to get us out of the deadlock we were in. We had to admit the answer wasn’t in more trying, in more force. It was in letting go. We needed a full stop.
When we ended Noisia, we had no intention of returning to it. We went our separate ways, followed our individual interests, and started solo projects and new collaborations.
But we stayed in the same building, with our three studios in a shared space. We still had Vision. And we still hung out as friends. While becoming submerged in our own worlds, we would catch glimpses of each other navigating new terrain. Taking risks, growing.
We’d sometimes find ourselves missing the feelings we’d get when sharing the Noisia music, and missing our lives around it. But talking about Noisia would often lead straight back to thoughts about those struggles and pressures from the past.
But then, more recently, we noticed those thoughts didn’t follow anymore. Memories of joy, beauty, and mutual respect started to outweigh the shadows of the past. Mentioning Noisia had lost its heaviness.
We’d get a little giddy in conversations about the things we could maybe do. We took up bouldering together. We got closer. And slowly, plans began to hatch.
We started making music together again. That in turn made us crave the excitement of the stage, and the feeling of sharing our music with crowds…
We’ve grown a lot individually. We intuitively feel that our own endeavours can now co-exist with our Noisia project. Combining our forces again feels incredibly exciting now.
We want to experiment and play with our back catalogue and the material we’ve recently been making. Then, we want to test this new music at shows, bring our experiences from those shows into our production decisions, test it again, starting a positive feedback loop that way. So we’ll take our time before we release anything.
This new process will start at one of our most familiar and beloved venues: Melkweg Amsterdam, on December 4th. That’s the first step, with more to come. We hope to see you all there!

Hello person,
Exactly seven years ago, we decided to disband. Back then, we tried everything we could to get us out of the deadlock we were in. We had to admit the answer wasn’t in more trying, in more force. It was in letting go. We needed a full stop.
When we ended Noisia, we had no intention of returning to it. We went our separate ways, followed our individual interests, and started solo projects and new collaborations.
