Our pals at Nothing Changes teamed up with the Red Bull Music Academy for the Brooklyn promoters’ biggest coup yet: a massive noise and experimental music event starring Japanese noise legend Merzbow. The evening also featured performances from Prurient, Pharmakon, Uniform, Marshstepper, and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge and Aaron Dilloway (performing The Electric Newspaper). A host of DJs— Becka Diamond, Ciara Black, J.R. Nelson, Ning Nong, Jock Club, and Ron Morelli of L.I.E.S— kept the bad vibes flowing
