Noble (record label)

Noble is a Japanese record label founded in 2001. Specializing in experimental electronic music, especially with influences from glitch and post-rock, artists from its roster have been influential and popular in the Japanese electronic music and post-rock scene.

"Noble Sound"
Noble artists make up the bulk of a wave of Japanese electronic musicians whose work includes synthesized orchestral instruments, glitches in rhythm and samples, and chord progressions and harmonies characteristic of post-rock and shoegaze. Influences from ambient music are also very common, but still with the distinguishing feature of effects-treated samples and glitches. This sound is exemplified by World's End Girlfriend, Kashiwa Daisuke, and Kazumasa Hashimoto.
