Boys Noize Records ‘grows up’ with mega compilation

Celebrating its seventh birthday this year, Boys Noize Records is apparently ‘growing up’. To mark the label’s march into maturity, main man Boys Noize has pulled together another three-disc collection (released yesterday) of his favourite weapons from the BNR family. Since the release of BNR Vol. 1, the label’s artists have “grown artistically and musically-wise”, and this compilation is designed to highlight the new stars and the seasoned hands side-by-side.

CD One and CD Two present an unmixed run-through of BNR weapons from the likes of Strip Steve, SCNTST, Housemeister, Jan Driver and Siriusmo. Boys Noize also finds space for his collabs with Erol Alkan and Mr Oizo, as well as remixes of BNR releases by outside players Modeselektor, DJ Koze and Tensnake. The third disc (only available in the CD version) is a mix session by UK duo Shadow Dancer, who’ve had a long run with Boys Noize Records. All in all, it looks like an essential collection for followers of the trailblazing label. So, how about that tour, Boys Noize?
