Los Angeles-based composer and sound artist John Wiese is a key participant in the American noise scene, working in abstract electronics, abrasive textures, radically experimental editing techniques, and other challenging sounds since the 1990s. Wiese's discography is staggeringly lengthy, with plenty of completely solo work like the 2007 standout album Soft Punk and extensive collaborative efforts. In addition to being part of the grindcore-informed noise project Sissy Spacek, over the years Wiese issued multiple joint efforts with various configurations of the Wolf Eyes camp, Merzbow, Kevin Drumm, C. Spencer Yeh, and countless others. In 2022, Wiese continued his collaborative streak with the release of The Echoing Shell, an EP made with No Age drummer Dean Spunt. 2023 brought additional collaborations with artists like Drew Daniel (Matmos) and members of the Los Angeles Free Music Society.
John Wiese has also released music as a member of Bastard Noise, Smegma, and Sissy Spacek.
