Shepard Fairey (OBEY) (1970) - NØISE/SSI Resurrectionem Ex-Mortuis Remix

About :
I have been friends with John Goff for 25 years. He was a fan of my art, and used to generously help me print. We often bonded over music from the Melvins, to Kraftwerk, to RUN-DMC. John has been a musician most of his life, playing in several different music projects over the years, including SSI which is a collaboration between John and his brother Will. When I started DJ’ing John would help me with the production of remixes. Eventually we started producing some music together, and with the valuable addition of Merritt Lear and Joe Cassidy, we formed Nøise. This 7” and print are based on a couple of Nøise remixes of select portions of SSI’s fourth album, Resurrectionem Ex-Mortuis. The lyrics are a response to social and political toxicity, symbolized by a tumultuous relationship. I love the combination of art and music, and it was great to collaborate with everyone, including Tomo77 (tomo77.com) who did the 7” back cover art.
