Various Artists - An Irish Almanac Of Noise & Experimental Music From 2025 2CD

Nyahh Records is finally ready and very delighted to announce a collection of contemporary noise and experimental musicians from all across the island of Ireland. All crammed into this two disc set with wonderful artwork by Alan Doyle.

This significant collection covers multiple generations of artists in the field of audio experimentation, including Danny McCarthy (turned 75 in 2025) and some new heads on the block like Francesca O and Enola Christ Metalizer. Also includes a track from Ian Lynch from Lankum.

These 32 tracks cover noise, acoustic, electroacoustic, electronics, Musique Concrete, tape music, and drone. Some with academic backgrounds and some total bedroom studio weirdos who don’t get out much. We hope you enjoy this compilation and it brings you some kind of joy and/or discomfort.

All tracks recorded by the artists, mastered by Rian Trench, cover art by Alan Doyle, design by David Hand.
