Bill Nelson
Noise Candy (A Creamy Centre In Every Bite!)

Album UK 2002 on Toneswoon Records label
Electronic and Rock (Art Rock)

From Bill's Dreamsville website: "Noise Candy is undoubtedly one of the most impressively presented albums in Nelson’s back catalogue. Housing 6 CDs of (mostly) previously unreleased material, the packaging and accompanying lyric booklet are awash with colour images and illustrations. The album was issued on the short lived Toneswoon label (reserved for this and a reissued Simplex). The 6 albums worth of material on Noise Candy were recorded over the period from 1990 to 2000, with the bulk of it hailing from the Atom Shop sessions. The box set was designed as a final farewell to Nelson’s analogue recording, assembled ahead of his conversion to a digital home recording set up. It effectively draws a line under what had been his basic approach to home music making that in essence began in 1979/80 (with what became Sounding the Ritual Echo). Issued in a limited edition of just 2000 copies, the set would remain on catalogue for approximately 18 months before copies started to dry up. For around 10 years the only way to acquire Noise Candy was to track down a second hand copy on eBay, Amazon etc, but eventually the long lost set came back into print." Noise Candy - 6 CD - Exclusive Limited Edition. Comes in 4-panel hard-cover long-box sized cover with 50 page booklet including lyrics. Composed, performed, recorded and produced by Bill Nelson at 'Studio Rose Croix', 'Tape Recorder Cottage' and 'The Atom Shop Record-O-Mat' home studios between 1990 and 2000. A Planet Nelsonia Production. Special thanks to Richard Chadwick, Yuka Fujii, Jon Wallinger, Frank Olinsky and Paul Page. This collection of music is dedicated to my wife Emiko, without whom my gardens would be blossomless.
