Dan Friel makes some pretty nifty blissed out noisy stuff, although I wouldn't exactly classify it as noise.

Noise actively involving an experimental process has the potential to be joyful through the sheer nature of discovery. A good example, and one I probably have mentioned elsewhere on this forum, is TAC's Objects cassette. 46 separate tracks, each involving a different object as means for composition -- "Roll of Masking Tape", "Contact Mic, Table Top", "Walnut Shells", it's easy to assume that Tom had fun recording this. https://www.discogs.com/release/789679-TAC-Objects

I remember when I was mixing this, I was laughing out of pure joy because the climax sounded like Western gunfight in a tin pan factory with a 10000 participants.

I prefer to see the sort of joyful release of energy compared to seeing another guy being angry at some buttons that had done them no wrong. Then again that has it's time and place too.
Japanese duo Mofo comes to mind, vocals and effects and drums. Also Ukranian drumnoiseproject Vava!

it was fun for the second time too! And the gig in epikset when it was raining, the best times. Does anyone have any videos from that gig?
