Just back from Providence, Rhode Island where I experienced the I Heart Noise Festival 2025 in all it's noisy ambient, drone, experimental, rocked out, spacey glory. Today's program will serve to present the featured artists in the order they played that evening. Kudos to Ilya S. who put the whole thing together!
