Boys Noize Confirms New Dog Blood Track With Skrillex “Very Soon”
New Dog Blood music is on the horizon. Boys Noize has revealed that he and Skrillex will be releasing a new single “very soon,” he told CULTR. Lucky fans were able to hear the record during one of the renowned electronic music producer’s recent live shows in Australia earlier this month. “Sonny and I make a lot of music together,” he said. “We have a new single actually coming out very soon. ‘Skrillex and Boys Noize’—I will be playing it tonight.” It’s been a decade since the advent of their collaborative alias and its first releases, “Next Order” and “Middle Finger.” After dropping Middle Finger Pt. 2 in 2013, the duo waited six years to release their next EP, 2019’s Turn Off The Lights.

Boys Noize Empowers NFT Collectors to Mint Their Own Techno With “Rave Pigs” Project
Boys Noize and the SuperFarm NFT platform are bringing cultured swines to the blockchain. Their forthcoming “Rave Pigs” project turns trunk-thumping techno and psychedelic art into digital collectibles. Best of all, those who choose to participate in minting the collection will retain full rights to a piece of Berlin underground culture. The copyrights afforded to NFT holders have been a hot topic in recent months. Though some of the world’s most prominent collections frequently fetch exorbitant prices on the open market, many of them do not afford the holder the full copyrights to the audio and visual works displayed in the NFT. Conversely, “Rave Pigs” holders will retain the rights to both the art and the music heard in the collectibles they own. So it’s easy to see how ...
Boys Noize Reveals New Dog Blood Music With Skrillex Is In the Works
It looks like Dog Blood are on the comeback trail. Considering it’s been nearly a decade since Skrillex and Boys Noize debuted their collaborative musical alias, it’s fair to wonder if they plan to reemerge after a two-year-plus hiatus to celebrate their 10-year anniversary in 2022. And if the latter’s recent Reddit AMA (“ask me anything”) session is any indication, new music may arrive sooner than fans anticipated. When a fan asked if Dog Blood’s long-awaited remix of Boys Noize’s single “Midnight” will ever be released, the analog virtuoso said the track will likely never escape from his hard drive. But it’s the tail-end of his response that perked the ears of the electronic music community. “i doubt it — b...

Shygirl Recruits Boys Noize and LSDXOXO for “TASTY” Remixes
Just last month, British songstress Shygirl premiered the music video for her song “TASTY” on YouTube.
