White noise as a music genre exists at the intersection of sound art and ambient music, characterized by its use of steady, unvarying soundscapes that mimic the acoustic properties of white noise — a consistent hiss similar to a radio static or a waterfall. Artists like The Brownian Sleepers and Julia Sono create immersive auditory experiences, often with a therapeutic or meditative intent. The genre's compositions may include subtle variations and textures, unfolding slowly to encourage a state of relaxation or heightened focus. The work of these artists, such as Orbit Noise and Lübecker, blends synthetic and organic sound sources, creating a neutral sonic backdrop that can either soothe or become the focus for deep listening. It’s a genre where the absence of melody and rhythm invites listeners to explore the nuances of pure sound.
