NOIR NOISE reflects the dominance and proliferation of black and brown music around the globe. Each episode helmed by a different sound artist delves into diverse and experimental soundscapes, rhythms, beats, snippets of conversations/ interviews and archival sound footage that create artistic expressions deeply rooted in diasporic culture. From Detroit and Atlanta, to New Orleans and Nigeria, New York and London, Port-Au-Prince and Sweden, Kingston and Paris, South Africa and the Dominican Republic, to Dakar and Brazil, and beyond, NOIR NOISE transports listeners to sonic portals of Black and Brown ART, SOUND & JOY.

With Guest: Lovie's music discovery was born in the digital music age: a young lover of local radio and after-school MTV marathons, her early mixes took shape in the form of burned CDs she made for friends. In relocating from her hometown of Washington, D.C. to New York in August of 2020, Lovie's unique selection swiftly ushered her into New York's local music scene. Within a year, she'd earned a Lot Radio residency; and has since become a staple at notable venues throughout the city, as well as a cofounder of Brooklyn's sweetest party, Soul Connection. Lovie's sets guarantee a sweet, soulful, and spiritual selection, as she interweaves soul, disco, and house into a sound that creates warmth, and makes you move.
