This was so amazing!! I would be lying if I said I didn’t experience a little FOMO missing this year’s record-breaking VELD Music Festival at Downsview Park. The three-day affair saw the likes of Martin Garrix, Steve Aoki, Alesso, Marshmello, Kaskade and more perform. Myself, I was really thrilled to meet one of its brightest stars, BOYS NOIZE (Alexander Ridha) her performed prime time Sunday, closing night of the Festival.
The German DJ, Songwriter and Producer is a major player, showing true staying power in Electronic Music, jetsetting around the world as an in-demand act. This year, he collaborated with Grammy and Oscar-winning duo Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross on CHALLENGERS [MIXED], one of the year’s outstanding albums and a personal favourite of mine. An 11 out of 10! There are only a few physical copies out there, thrilled to have one. I recall posting a request for Boys Noize to sign this when he came to Toronto, and he stuck to his word!
His new track FVCKVRVND is now out! Fire!
