804noise is a collective of artists & enthusiasts dedicated to making the Richmond community more receptive to experimental, noise, and avant-garde art/ideas. By networking with other experimental communities and artists we hope to make it easier for experimental events to take place in Richmond and other surrounding areas. The 804noise Website offers a calendar which may contain experimental events outside of the (804) area code such as Washington DC, Hampton, Virginia Beach, Charlottesville, Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, NC, and other neighboring cities to promote solidarity within the experimental community as a whole.

We're always looking for others who want to get involved and help with the organization of 804noise. Want to take part? Get in touch. Be sure to subscribe to the discussion list which is right now more than 200 people strong and participate in open discussion and receive announcements pertaining to your experimental and noise community.

804noise was formed in December of 2001, founded on community and mutual aid instead of scene and posturing. It has since become a strong and diverse community of experimental, noise and visual artists. In March of 2004 the decision to move forward with a community based label culminated in the production of a Richmond experimental and noise compilation entitled "804noise". The vision of 804noise Records is to publish and distribute music only from Virginia with a focus on the Richmond experimental community.
