Various - Soul Jazz Records presents New York Noise: Dance Music From The New York Underground 1978-82 CD
The years downtown punk and dance music finally collided.
- Soul Jazz's survey of New York post-punk, punk funk, no wave and synth wave, 1978 to 1982
- Arthur Russell, James White and the Contortions, Mars, Konk, Material, Bush Tetras and Lizzy Mercier Descloux
- Freshly remastered CD edition with extensive sleevenotes and photography
New York Noise catches the few years when downtown dance music and punk stopped circling each other and collided. Arthur Russell as Dinosaur L, James White and the Contortions, Mars, Konk, Material, Bush Tetras, The Theoretical Girls and Lizzy Mercier Descloux, plus rarities from Alan Vega, Chain Gang and Implog. No wave players like Glenn Branca and James White on one side, experimental dance minds like Russell, Bill Laswell and Konk on the other, all of them building something neither scene had a name for yet. This 2026 edition is freshly remastered and cut loud, with extensive sleevenotes and photography. Street date: September 25.
