ps. In case you missed it; we are going to rename our Patreon to ‘VISION’ from January 1st 2021 onwards. More info about the name change can be found on our Patreon page.

We are going to rename this Patreon page to ‘VISION’ from January 1st 2021 onwards.
Why, you ask? And what does it mean for me?
We want to shift the focus of this page to VISION and it’s growing world. If we’d keep the name Noisia attached, Noisia would still be the focus, even though we have already decided to stop Noisia. Of course, we still mean to do a proper farewell tour and everything. But VISION is our way forward.
So what will change then? Not much, actually...
