BNR celebrates its 100th release with Boys Noize remixes from The Chemical Brothers and Justice
Boys Noize latest EP, Out of the Black, saw the iconic electro producer dive into new territory, including a collaboration with Snoop Dogg. Still intact, however, were his feverishly unrelenting bass lines and a warehouse aesthetic that was as thrilling as it was haunting. To celebrate the 100th release on the BNR imprint, Boys Noize has commissioned two of electronic music's most-inspired production duos, The Chemical Brothers and Justice, to remix two cuts from his recent Out of the Black EP. Remixing "XTC" and "Ich R U" respectively, the pairings treat Alex Ridha's creations with care, using their studiotime to build on the tracks' already flawless foundations.
Justice and The Chemical Brothers remix Boys Noize’s ‘Ich R U’ and ‘XTC’
Like some sort of electronica fever dream, Justice and The Chemical Brothers have signed up for remixing duties on 'Ich R U' and 'XTC.' To commemorate BNR's 100th release, both legendary duos take two of Out of the Black's standout tracks head on - assimilating Alex Ridha's gritty techno into their unique sonic imprints. On "XTC," The Chemical Brothers show us a flash of their ability to create intricate soundscapes before allowing the original's blaring breaks to shatter the airy calm. Justice takes a cue from 2007's Cross and delivers an anthemic rock-opera iteration of "Ich R U," complete with the heavily distorted chordplay their productions are most well known for.
