Wednesday Auditory Orgasm - WMC Edition
Today I bring you Alexander Ridha, the Berlin DJ/producer better known as Boys Noize. A lot of people tend to think Boys Noize is a duo -- it's not. Maybe because of the plurality in the name. Anyway, last year he released the superb album Oi Oi Oi, ushering in the new dirty electro-house sound that everyone thought only the French could do. You could argue he is Berlin's response to Justice. But -- I may shock you right now -- I think he's better.
Look take it this way, if a bill for any WMC event says Boys Noize is going to be there, you should definitely make it your priority to be there. I heard him spin last year at the Fixed/Ed Banger Records party at Studio A and it was a killer set. This year, the man is everywhere and my pick for potentially suffering WMC over-exposure ala MSTRKRFT last year. He'll be at Mansion on Tuesday, the Scion Penthouse Party at the Raleigh on Thursday, Ultra Music Festival on Friday and rumor is Studio A on Saturday along with Simian Mobile Disco and Erol Alkan.
I leave you below with some of Boys Noize's highlights. First is his latest single "Lava Lava" followed by his take of Feist's "My Moon My Man", arguably the best remix ever created by man.
