Born on the ancient island of Sicily and now based in Berlin, Nino Pedone is a sound designer, producer, DJ, and label founder who's best known for his work as Shapednoise. He sculpts perplexing, mangled electronic textures, fusing them with abrasive, expertly designed rhythms and crashing across genre boundaries, pulling inspiration from industrial music, hardcore continuum, experimental noise, hip-hop, and rap.

Pedone's idiosyncratic technique has evolved across four vastly different releases: 2013's Opal Tapes-released 'Until Human Wakes Us,' 'Different Selves' released on Type in 2015, 2019's 'Aesthesis' on Scottish imprint Numbers, and 'Absurd Matter,' the inaugural release of his own multidisciplinary platform WEIGHT LOOMING. The latter is Pedone's most ambitious full-length to date, structuring his ear-bending sonic experimentation into unstable but familiar patterns and featuring guest spots from Armand Hammer, Brodinski, Dean Hurley, Moor Mother, and ZelooperZ.
