Greh Holger has been a pillar of international noise since the early 2000s, running the prolific label Chondritic Sound, recording and performing heavy synth-based noise as HIVE MIND, and being an admin of the iheartnoise message board, a community space that was essential to the noise scene at that time. Since then, he has stayed active with his label, numerous recording projects, and formed Noisextra Podcast, a show that is a staple of contemporary noise media. It was great to be able to put Greh on the other end of the interview process and pick his brain about his history and activities.
In the Patreon exclusive EXT. to this interview, Greh goes into detail about the synths, gear, and recording techniques he uses HIVE MIND and BLACK SAND DESERT. Greh also shared download codes for his most recent HIVE MIND album Elysian Alarms with the Maniac's Circle, as well as an exclusive live recording of BLACK SAND DESERT, from August 19, 2023 at Coaxial in Los Angeles.
