Boys Noize Biography
Alexander Ridha, 1983, Hamburg, Germany. The plural in the artist title may be a little misleading, as the moniker is actually a solo project from producer Alexander Ridha. The “noize” descriptor in the name is, however, an accurate tag. Feted by artists such as Tiga, Erol Alkan and Soulwax, the youthful Berlin-based producer creates a maximalist music that is noisy and brash, sometimes recalling Daft Punk at their most boisterous. As if to emphasise his lack of subtlety, Ridha has declared “~censored~ off new rave and bring back the party techno” on his MySpace page. Such a declaration could easily be taken as a succinct and to-the-point manifesto for the producer. His EPs for the International DeeJay Gigolo, Turbo and Kitsuné imprints and his subsequent 2007 self-released Oi Oi Oi seemed tailor-made for pummelling dancefloors, decimating speakers and laying waste to party venues rather than more sedentary pursuits (thus, not unreasonably, Oi Oi Oi was not hugely effective as a home-listening set). Tellingly, the album was packaged in an image of a (Christoph Steinmeyer-designed) skull re-imagined as a disco mirror ball. That Ridha named tracks “Wu Tang” and “Don’t Believe The Hype” seemed to suggest a kinship and/or love for hip-hop. Ridha has remixed tracks as diverse as Feist’s “My Moon My Man”, Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus”, Bloc Party’s “Banquet”, Marilyn Manson’s “Putting Holes in Happiness”, and Kaiser Chiefs’ “Everyday I Love You Less And Less”. Ridha has also created music under the names Morgentau, Eastwest and Puzique and runs his own Boys Noize label.
