The album Mayday (2016) saw Boys Noize take his raw, aggressive production to new levels of musicality - true songs instead of club tools. Never one to stray too far from his roots however, Mayday Remixes brings it all right back to the basement. Nearly every track from the album is reworked by Boys Noize with the club and DJ in mind, and the techno gods should be thanked because his Roland TB-303 and TR-808 could handle it. "Overthrow" gets an absolutely jacking acid overdub, "Mayday" is tweaked for maximum dancefloor effect, "Dynamite" gets a Benga dub, "2 Live" morphs into sonically rich disco, "Euphoria" gets a hard percussive techno overhaul, and fans finally get the epic live reprise mix of "Starchild" heard in Boys Noize's sets across the world in 2016. The new album additionally offers remixes from a diverse roster of fresh faces and respected talent. The brutally aggressive "Hardkotzen" gets a proper techno remix by Sydney's Jensen Interceptor, BNR's young rave revivalist Raito brings his signature '90s touch to "Midnight", and Rockwell - of course - offers an utterly mad "Birthday" remix. Mayday Remixes, and edits, expand the original album's world providing its fans, new listeners, and DJs alike a wealth of choice cuts - always shedding cliches, always pushing the boundaries of electronic music and culture forward, and always, always Boys Noize. Also features: Remy Banks, MXM, GILA, Polica, Hudson Mohawke, and Spank Rock.
