Cathartic Noize Experience
Cathartic Noize Experience is a non-commercial, Swiss-based record label dedicated to the deeper, highly sophisticated margins of extreme electronic music. Operating firmly outside mainstream structures, the imprint focuses on experimental hardcore, speedcore, flashcore, and breakcore.
Rather than chasing fleeting club trends, Cathartic Noize Experience curates a distinctively dark, complex, and intense sonic palette. Its catalog—spanning physical formats like 12-inch vinyl and cassettes—features uncompromising works from underground projects such as Messias, Nihil Fist, Sadistic, C Mantle and Memero.
The label handles sub-genres characterized by high tempos, dense distortion, and mathematical or conceptual production structures, treating noise not merely as aggression, but as a deliberate mechanism for immersion and psychological release.
For followers of radical electronic engineering and uncompromised industrial soundscapes, Cathartic Noize Experience serves as a consistent source of challenging, finely crafted extreme music.

Seek new levels of reality… Walking down a steep and partially crumbled staircase towards a lowceilinged concrete basement. With every step downwards the artificial fog gets more and more dense, while the sound, which started as a muffled noise, gets clearer and louder. The room, unknown in size, is only lit by strobe light and bears empty, beside some occasional schemes emerging and remerging from the fog. All alone in the white and flashing nothingness, I start dancing. The beat is relentless, fast and precise – hacking into my brain, channelling my thoughts and drawing my mind away - step by step, until I dissolve in music and light and space, leaving this level of reality and my ego behind… When I came across of ‘the psychedelic experience’ – a manual about substance induced meditation and the associated transcendental experience written by Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner and Richard Alpert and based on the Tibetan book of the dead – the description of the psychedelic journey immediately reminded me of this exact feeling when submerging in that amalgam of music, fog and strobe and the meditative freedom I always felt in this surrounding. The process of drifting away, leaving our worldly struggles and eventually our whole ego behind until fully submerged in the void – a void which is not nothingness but pure existence, and from which we can reach out to wherever we want. I truly believe that this experience of raving, this immersion into music can be considered as an equally cathartic process as meditation and that it aids us to maintain sanity in this fast evolving and ever-changing world, we are living in. Music is our key to other levels of reality; music is a mantra for our psyche and our body (soma) - our psycho|soMA|NTRA flrmkltr, October 15th 2023

Memero's highly experimental flashnoise with a hint of oldschool vibe and full of unforseeable twists and sudden changes sends you on a journey throught the depths of a present day dystopian world - exploitation of resources, constant hyper-expression and overstimulation, expropriation of our very selves to feed the algorithms - the dark and frightening sci-fy future is not ahead of us anymore, it is already here.
