Being exposed to funk at a very early age gave DJ Jackmaster Flash a strong vantage point where dance music is concerned. He started his interest in music as a toddler, crying for the likes of Curtis Mayfield & Isaac Hayes from his play pen in the early seventies. Influential musicians like these were favorites of his mom, and played an integral role in forming his musical tastes. The desire to capture more parts of songs that were more appealing to him came on very early, and when he saw Afrikaa Bambataa in 1977 at a community party in the Bronx, he knew just how he wanted to do it. However, tape splicing and “pause mixing” would be his only option until finally acquiring his first set of turntables in 1984.

The name “Flash" was given to him in 1985 by a b-boy crew from San Francisco as a playful reference not only to instant beat matching and signature style of mixing techno with hip-hop records at 45-rpm, but to playfully suggest a legend in the making like Grandmaster Flash. By 1986 he was referred to as “Mixmaster” Flash and not long after “Jackmaster” Flash, (or Jack MF) in honor of house music.

For almost 30 years Jack MF has headlined a who’s who list of venues ranging from the most intimate underground parties to the bigger more legendary clubs and parties, like Limelight, Caffeine, Stereo, Shampoo, Traxx, Lansdowne Street, Underground, Zootz, and many more. A DJs DJ, Jack MF is recognized and credited by legendary DJs like "Lil Louis" Vega, Kevin Hedge of Blaze, Ron Trent, and house vocalist/DJ Eric "E-man" Clark, and was often asked to entertain at backyard parties where other legendary DJs and promoters gathered exclusively. He is also known for producing his own legendary events as far back as 1986, and for leading “A Book Called Galanta” a group that completely changed the face of the rave scene from New England to The South with their famous Full Moon parties during the early nineties.

Jack MF doesn't just drop tracks, but creates a whole new groove, being very particular about timing and harmonizing. The mix is constant, and the result is an even richer, more soulful sound than the records have alone. Countless DJ's have been affected in one way or another by his style, and many credit him for his willingness to share his knowledge. Most DJ/Producers who learned personally from Jack MF have gone on to earn everything from regional distinctions to international fame. Some own their own record labels.

There's a certain authentic flavor in his sound that is hard to come by. Perhaps he owes this to his record collection which dates well before the earliest disco. Jack MF has witnessed the transformation of ALL TYPES OF UNDERGROUND MUSIC since the early seventies. Almost every track he owns was acquired at the time of original release so his knowledge of history is strong. His massive and diverse collection is undoubtedly one of the most complete when it comes to classics. 

Whether live or recorded, a Jack MF set will take you on a musical journey. He takes you deep, brings you up, puts you in orbit, and brings you back down to Earth. Each set is designed and catered to move any crowd. His broad range of music, versatility, and connection to the audience guarantees to move absolutely anyone. Whatever he plays, you can be sure that his heart will be in it.

He’s the techno punk, the unboxable nomad: Berlin DJ, producer and label owner Alex Ridha, better known as BOYS NOIZE, made his DJ debut at the age of 15, taking a teenager´s love of house and techno to a global scale. Accolades have been bestowed by Rolling Stone, who named him one of the "Top 10 DJ's Who Rule The World" and Beatport, who elected him “Best Electronic Act” 3 years in a row. He´s rocked the world's biggest stages, lit up Coachella three times, took Lollapalooza by storm, and headlined festivals and clubs on every continent – from Berlin techno temple Berghain to Fuji Rock in Japan to Justin Vernon’s Eaux Claires Festival in the woods of Wisconsin.

As an artist and producer, Ridha has created a sound and a vision that’s peerless, uncompromising, and enduring – respected in the scene, banging from underground to mainstream, it flies in the face of convention at every turn. He’s remixed Depeche Mode, Daft Punk, David Lynch, Feist and Nine Inch Nails, collaborated with Snoop Dogg, Erol Alkan, and Jarvis Cocker, worked on Mark Ronson’s “Uptown Special” and on the soundtrack for upcoming Oliver Stone’s Snowden, and released group projects with genius pianist Chilly Gonzales (Octave Minds), Skrillex (Dog Blood), and Mr. Oizo (Handbraekes). The list of names alone speak volumes about Ridha’s multifaceted approach.

Ridha is also the heart of Boysnoize Records, the label that he started back in 2005. Founded originally in order to retain his full artistic freedom while releasing his own music under Boys Noize, The Berlin-based anarchist collective —and it’s sub-label, BNR Trax— became a home for multidirectional quality electronic music and is responsible for more than 150 releases incl. Strictly Raw (2015), Out Of The Black (2012), Power (2009), Oi Oi Oi (2007) and Octave Minds (2014).

"... and the spinner will spin. and the bass will be thunder subterranean. and the river will rise as raindrops. from berlin. my favorite electronic house music in the world. immediate. throbbing." - Justin Vernon (Bon Iver)

“One of the most prolific and brilliant artists.” - Zane Lowe (Beats 1)

"BOYS NOIZE makes brilliant music. He doesn´t make a lot of music but when he makes it it´s always CLASS." - Annie Mac (BBC1)

"BOYS NOIZE is the only DJ who can play underground techno for 30,000 people." - 2MANYDJS / Soulwax

There are very few things on this lovely blue green ball that give me more joy than making my beautiful party people dance like there is no tomorrow.

Starting work in the spring of 2008, Local Hero, Lady Foursquare, Angel Alanis and additional contributors including 12th Planet (of Cartel, Renegade Hardware, Tech Itch) and more released a remix album of Portishead's "Third" called, "Third Floor: Portishead’s ‘Third’ Reimagined by Noise Floor Crew." Media such as New York Magazine (who heralded NFC in the same breath as Outkast, Three-Six Mafia and My Morning Jacket), Big Shot Magazine, Raveline, Iheartcomix, Urbnet, Confront Magazine and others praised the album roundly. The singles peppered dozens of prominent radio shows, including Josh Wink's BBC Radio-1 Essential Mix and Dave Clarke's White Noise Radio. Shortly after the departure of Alanis, Noise Floor Crew, now comprised of Foursquare and Local Hero completed a remix for Justice ("Stress or Justice") which was re-edited by Boys Noize. Noise Floor Crew now joins the production team for DJ Pierre's full length album, due in 2011 as well as upcoming releases on Acid Jack's Idiot House and their home label, Dust Traxx. In various projects, crew members have produced remixes for the aforementioned Justice, Simian Mobile Disco, Dizee Rascal, Lauren Flax w/ Sia, Greenskeepers, DJ Donna Summer and many others. In 2010, they will continue to release remixes and originals on labels such Dust Traxx, Uni.form, Idiot House, Play Me Records and Nightshifters.
