Boys Noize is the moniker of Alexander Ridha, a German electro-tech producer and DJ. It is also the name of Ridha’s label, boysnoize records, which he set up in 2005.

Ridha was born in 1982 and grew up in Hamburg, Germany. Between the ages of six and fourteen, he practiced piano and drums. Once he reached fourteen he began to purchase records and produce music with software. At sixteen, he started to produce in a studio with a colleague who would later be known as D.I.M.. He taught Ridha engineering over the next five years. When he became 21 years of age, Ridha moved to Berlin.

Under the name Boys Noize, he has released records on French label Kitsuné Music, Tiga’s Turbo Recordings label, and on DJ Hell’s International Deejay Gigolos. He has also remixed tracks for Tiga, Para One, Feist, Kreeps and Depeche Mode, as well as popular remixes of British indie anthems “

Banquet” by Bloc Party and “

Everyday I Love You Less and Less” by Kaiser Chiefs. Boys Noize’s tracks and remixes are played by DJs such as Erol Alkan, SebastiAn, 2 Many DJ’s, Tiga and Justice.

Ridha has also released EPs under the names 909d1sco and Kid Alex. Boys Noize released his debut album “Oi Oi Oi” in September 2007. The first single from the album is titled “

Don’t Believe the Hype”, and features two remixes by Surkin. Boys Noize’s track entitled “

& Down” has also been featured in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV on the Electro-choc and PLR radio station, and was also used as a sample for Estelle’s single American Boy.

In a December 2008 interview with DISCODUST, Ridha stated he is “taking two months off at the beginning of the year to finish new album”.

Overrated, boring, soulless tripe. I'd rather listen to the god awful Merzbow than this rubbish.

After you listen My Moon My Man you should directly switch to Shine Shine, I love the combination...:D Just happened when shuffeling my iTunes. Lovely! At some points Boys Noize looks a bit like Daft Punk, but since I love Daft Punk, I don't really mind...:P You should try the combination I just mentioned, let me know what you think...;) Peace.
