NOBA

NOBA
is the new album by Angus Bit, a Sardinian musician and producer who blends electronic, downtempo, ambient, and hip-hop to create a distinctive sound. His music is crafted from original samples, synths, personal recordings, memories, landscapes, and sound samples of all kinds. He creates and arranges his tracks by playing various instruments, primarily samplers and synthesizers.
This self-produced and self-financed album was played, recorded, mixed, and mastered by Angus Bit in an apartment in Cagliari. Conceptualized and performed without the aid of computers and DAWs, it will be released independently on March 14, 2025, without record labels. Riccardo Spada (Feruja) contributed vocals and lyrics on the track “Weido.” The cover photo was shot by Angus, while the post-production graphic work, logo, and lettering are by Sebo (seboinflebo).
NOBA is the constant thought of quitting, only to end up renewing, again and again. It’s an anagram, an acronym, pure expression. NOBA is the steps of a child who, full of excitement, smiles and shows no sign of stopping. It’s you who don’t want to grow up too fast, who want to slow down, take a breath. It’s you who still want to try to feel. NOBA is being amazed by the ordinary, by words, by exchanges and encounters beyond the screens, by landscapes that envelop with their sounds.
Birds are synthesizers, footsteps and garbage thrown on the beaches become strings and percussions. Noise does not exist, destruction does. The sea is a rhythmic pattern, not a boundary. Cities and rain provide accompaniment, while voices sing, always, even when they speak or remain silent. Beats, crackling, echoes. From some places, you remember the sounds, from some words, their intonations. That point where the waves play, the impassable boundaries, the cold that breaks your hands and the wind that caresses you.
