 totally awesome musician/DJ live June 25, 2008

I saw Boys Noize play after MSTRKRFT & I thought he totally blew away MSTRKRFT which played a horrible 'sissy' ie house music set, maybe bec it was house music club.
But Alex Ridha did not compromise but played his high-energy metal-sounding dance music even thought 80%-90% of the crowd couldn't dance to it. Fine by me as I had an awesome time at 4am in the morning til 6am which is when he went on. Totally saved the night considering the lame house music being played before 4am.
BN also used a mixing board to play his DJ set vs laptop like the Chemical Bros does in their shows. Makes the mixing more special...
You rock, Alex..

when I listened to boys noize after reading a positive review about them, esp the first 3 tracks, I felt that it was too much like justice but w/o weird/odd/corny overdubs[ie "let there be light"] that justice likes to use.
SO the question is whether to buy this to listen to more buzz synths & robot voices if you have justice & when MSTRKRFT so masterfully shown how to use buzz synths in a pop or structured way that is so much fun...
Luckily for BN, someone lent me their CD & I listened to it more on a leisurely basis & was blown away by the remix "my moon, my man" & "I-robot" even w/ vocals are in german. Now I dig tracks like "Oh, & down & Lava, lava".
BN is a real good case study to compare mstrkrft's vs justice's approach. Mstrkrft constructs pop songs using only instrumentals & robot voices..it may look easy but it's not[hard to create compelling hooks that are short & sweet].
Justice, on the other hand, does more breakbeats & layers them to the point where the song is sinking under the weight of too many riffs/beats trying to hang on. But justice REALLY knows how to play funk bass which seems to be their sound/hook. That's how I came to like it eventually
BN uses a more conventional approach to song structure ie ravel's bolero version where a beat/hook is steadyly built on. It can be boring but if used more to build a song,then it is very effective ie "my moon, my man" & a song NOT on this album, "feel good tv off", which was a beautiful, melodic song that really moved me.
I think BN has talent..they should study mstrkrft/old chemical bros's approach to creating songs using buzz synths & look less to justice.
But it should be obvious from my above paragraphs that you have to get MSTRKRFT's the looks if you have not[see my review of it]. Also people who liked Daft Punk's human after all album will be able to enjoy this.
Awesome! October 21, 2007

This is one of the best and well rounded electro albums I've heard in a while. For the most part it holds a pretty good consistency from start to finish... for me the crowner being "Oh!" which I can't seem to get enough of.
It's packed with a lot of raw energy and solid beats. Sometimes it can get repetitive, but as a whole I think it's really well done and the type of thing that DJs should be spinning at clubs. It's a really original sound that never lets up... he's already remixed artists like Depeche Mode, Marilyn Manson, Bloc Party, and others... he's definitely going to hit the scene really big soon.
I'm not sure what else to say... it's a great album. Probably one of the best electro albums in the past few years.
