Fabriclive 72 CD

Given their years of service and status within the scene, it's perhaps surprising that this is Boys Noize's first contribution to the Fabriclive series. Predictably, the German grasps the opportunity with both hands, laying down an intense, robust, action-packed mix full of spiraling electronics, ragging acid, booming beats and pandemonium-inducing builds. Opening with Mr Oizo's bizarre but brilliant Marilyn Manson hook-up "Solid", Boys Noize gleefully rips through 30-odd tracks in the space of 70 minutes, flitting between bombastic floorfillers from the likes of Special Request, Jimmy Edgar, Four Tet, Randomer, Worthy & Eats Everything, Dave Clarke and, perhaps most surprisingly, Kowton. The result is a thrill-a-minute ride through basement-friendly beats with added sweaty rave vibes. In truth, we didn't expect anything less.
