How did you guys start out?
Noah's tape is the music created and produced by a single person, me, and played live by a full band composed of Tao Nuttakorn (Keyboardist), Tom Swasdikula (bassist) and Chris Pilara (guitarist and percussionist). We are all friends, and that's how we began to play together.

What inspires you musically?
I get my inspiration from things I observe around me. Sometimes from my own experience or sometimes just things happening to others that affect me. The music I make is what I like. Not having a label or any kind of artistic management gives you the freedom to only create what you like.

What else are you listening too apart from your own one?
Alternative bands like Radiohead, Portishead, Patrick Watson, Grizzly Bear, Get Well Soon, The Faint and also classical music and blues.

What is the most difficult thing about being a self-produced band? What’s the best part about it?
Doing everything on your own can be very difficult and a bit discouraging from time to time, but when you make something you're satisfied with, it's the best feeling, cause it's true to yourself.

You’ve been playing at some parties like the latest Popscene indie night, which is your favorite gig?
Lots of good moments. We played at Stone Free Festival in Saraburi. It was a great event organized by Panda Records in an amazing field surrounded by a cliff. The atmosphere there was just perfect and a bit magical. We had a great time.

How do you feel about opening for Black Lips?
Oh very excited.

Can we expect to see your full album soon?
Not full album but EP, yes, in mid- 2012.
