    Boys Noize Returns With '7LLVSION' — His First Solo Album in Five Years

    Boys Noize released '7LLVSION' on November 6, 2026 — his first solo album in five years and his eighth overall, out on his own ONES and ZEROS label. Twelve tracks, built to work in his live sets, and stacked with collaborators from Berlin's EBM underground to Brazilian funk.

    What it is

    • 12 tracks, released November 6, 2026 via ONES and ZEROS.
    • His first solo album in five years, and his first studio release of any kind since 'Nine Inch Noize', the collaborative album with Nine Inch Nails that landed in April 2026.
    • Ridha's rule for the record, per the official album notes: every track had to work in his live set.

    The collaborators

    • '1+1+1' with ZEP — the lead single, released September 24.
    • 'Nächstenliebe' featuring Brutalismus 3000 — released October 29, with a DAF influence noted by EDM.com and FLOOD.
    • 'Ycore' featuring Mayah Alkhateri — Arabic vocals over coldwave bass, guitar and trance textures.
    • 'Baile DF' with Adame DJ, Thalia Abdon and MC DA FRANÇA — a Brazilian funk foundation with Portuguese chants.
    • 'I Need Luv' with ABRA and Safety Trance — R&B vocals against a dembow rhythm and heavy low end.
    • 'Wake Me Up' with Locked Club, and TAICHU also features on the record.

    Why it matters

    Boys Noize spent the last two years inside other people's worlds — remixing Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross's 'Challengers' score, then co-producing much of their 'Tron: Ares' soundtrack. '7LLVSION' is what he brought home: industrial and EBM discipline with global club sounds folded in, instead of a genre exercise. For listeners who know him only as the NIN collaborator, this is the reintroduction — and for anyone tracking new EDM music this week, it is the heaviest record on the pile.
