I always found it interesting that this dude and Digitalism were both from the land where minimal reigns supreme, because there stuff is the exact opposite of subtle. Busy P himself said that Boys Noize could have easily been on Ed Banger. But oh well, he said screw signing with a label and started his own. So here we are with the third single of his debut album, appropriately tittled, Oi Oi Oi. First let me say that I guarantee that 9 out of 10 moms would HATE this, and we all know that is not a bad thing. The Original(1) is a bruising minimal electro cut with only a slight underlying synth line near the end. Listening to the sound sample should give you a good idea of the entire track. Remix man number one, Feadz, has a pretty diverse musical background, from making tracks on Germany's BPitch control label, to producing new electro hip pop cuts for Uffie on Ed Banger. Here he gets to utilize some of that Berlin-style attention to fine detail, while still keeping the intensity level at 10. The real shiner on this 12 though is Para One's remix(3) of non-album track 'My Head'. Less choppy than the usual Para production; think Soulwax remix without the epic build. This is peak time shit to the highest degree right here. I can see Steve Aoki right now at Cinespace - shirt off, sweating ballz, doing his little Jesus on the cross pose, staring at the heavens with his eyes closed as his disciples do handstands or backflips or whatever the hell they do there. Major! Also, with three handy noise loops at the end of side A.
