Joyful Noise Halloween Party, Vol. 1 (2023)
Various Artists
From 2017 to 2022, we at Joyful Noise had a holiday tradition in which we enlisted our roster to record new and improved songs for the winter season. Well, we are doing things a little differently in 2023 (and likely for years to come)... In 2023 we continue our holiday tradition, but we're focusing on a very different holiday...The Joyful Noise Halloween Party, Vol 1 is, frankly, one of the best various artist collections we have ever produced. Swamp Dogg does Screamin' Jay...

2021 Holiday Special Snowflathes
Joyful Noise
We’re suckers for a good tradition over at JNR, one of them being our annual “holiday special” with holiday-themed covers by the JNR roster. Once again, we’ll be offering snowflake-shaped lathe-cut 7" records (AKA “Snowflathes”) to commemorate this mighty celebration. This year however, the Snowflathes are ultra-limited. Usually we cut 100 copies of each holiday song, but due to pandemic-related supply issues and the physical limitations of lathe machine (as well as our desire for Moose to have a good holiday with...
2020 Holiday Special Snowflathes
Joyful Noise
We have a tradition at Joyful Noise of throwing a big holiday party each year, inviting our artists to come to town and record holiday songs. But obviously 2020 is not your average year... Instead of canceling our yearly tradition due to the global pandemic, we decided instead to create a video “holiday special" and asked our artists to record and film holiday songs from their respective locations across the globe.The holiday special will take place on Friday, December 11 - hosted...
Kidbug
Kidbug
Kidbug is Marina Tadic (Eerie Wanda), Adam Harding (Dumb Numbers), Thor Harris (Swans) and Bobb Bruno (Best Coast). The band was born from the romance of Tadic and Harding, and together with Harris and Bruno they make self-described "cuddlebug sludge”, the harmoniously spiky offspring of Harding’s fuzzy guitar grunge-gaze and Tadic’s dreamy left field pop. Kidbug’s roots stretch back to December of 2018. For the last several years Joyful Noise has invited their roster of artists to the label’s office in...
Holiday Party, Vol. 2
Joyful Noise Recordings
Christmas music is usually the worst... But we're trying to change that. Recorded at our second annual Joyful Noise holiday party, in our hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana, these exclusive holiday songs were each tracked in just one hour. Featuring a variety of covers, traditionals, and original songs, this is Christmas music for people who hate Christmas music. An amazing list of artists contributed, including Danielson, Greg Saunier (Deerhoof), CJ Boyd, Ohmme, No Joy, Eerie Wanda (who came all the way from Holland!), Mike Adams, Chris...
Lingering Pt. II
Sleep Party People
Written, performed, recorded, and produced by brainchild Brian Batz, this is the counterpart of 2017's 'Lingering'. With 'Lingering Pt. II' Batz finishes his artistic cycle, showcasing his instrumental prowess and production mastery with this batch of inventively choreographed songs. Though Sleep Party People remains relatively underground in the United States (for now), the band has harnessed a groundswell of attention from far reaches of the globe. Throughout Asia, Eastern Europe, South America, and even parts of the Middle East it's...

Holiday Party, vol. 1
Joyful Noise Recordings
Christmas music is usually the worst... But we're trying to change that. Last weekend we hosted the annual Joyful Noise holiday party at our headquarters in Indianapolis, Indiana. However, this year we did something a little different: we invited our artists to join the party, and record holiday songs on-site. Artists such as Yoni Wolf, Richard Edwards, Oneida, Dumb Numbers, Jad Fair and others showed up to the party, and recorded exclusive holiday songs that we are releasing on snowflake-shaped...
Beach Song / LaVaughna
Busman's Holiday
To ease the wait for their forthcoming LP, Busman's Holiday share a snack. Like their record "A Long Goodbye", the recordings were made alongside engineer/producer Mark Lawson (Arcade Fire, The Unicorns) and arranger Matt Nowlin. Fans of the band will recognize the song of the summer "Beach Song" from their live show. It's fully orchestrated here, finally set to tape. "LaVaughna" is a pedal-steel sweetened country ballad that will get something in your eye. The release is limited to 500 hand-numbered copies on...
