mouseatouille
Mouseatouille, the nine-member Melbourne-based band, has always sought comfort in numbers. There is a reassurance in the orchestra, the knowledge that a friend has your back, that someone is always playing along with you. Initially a fuzzed-out, lo-fi cassette recording, high school project of singer / songwriter Harry Green and drummer Spencer Noonan, Mouseatouille quickly grew in size to satiate their appetite for intricate arrangements and dense instrumentation. The band expanded to include anyone who could be convinced to pick up an instrument and play. Their 2025 album DJ Set was recorded haphazardly, using whatever equipment was available and employing a "learn-as-you-go" approach to composition and arrangement. Through endless rehearsals and recording sessions in a garage, a sharehouse kitchen and a parent’s lounge room, Mouseatouille synthesises the care and precision of orchestral arrangement with the spontaneity and carelessness of getting together with your friends to make music simply because it's fun.
