Mr Vasts..….new album .....TOUCH and GO  ….


Ray Noir is the rising queer artist fusing the aggression of metal with the pulse of electronic music. Born from Oslo’s black-metal underground and sharpened in London’s clubland, Ray’s sound channels raw emotion through heavy beats, riffy guitars and bold, unapologetic energy. His music is a rallying cry for outsiders and rebels alike.

Ray gained attention with his 2024 mixtape Scorpio — which reached the Top 5 on the German Alternative Charts (DAC) and received acclaim from Kerrang! and BBC Radio 1 — followed by the 2025 EP Against The Machine, featuring Grammy-winning guitarist Steve Stevens (Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, Top Gun Anthem) on the single Razorblade Romance.

★★★★ “A scintillating seven-track journey from sleazy street corners to shady superstardom.” – Kerrang!
 “Track of the Week” – BBC Radio 1 Future Alternative

On stage, Ray Noir delivers an electrifying mix of theatre, fashion and ferocity — a full-bodied performance that blurs the line between concert and spectacle. With sold-out shows in London and Oslo, UK tours and support slots for Combichrist and Die Krupps, Ray is carving his place as one of the most distinctive new voices in alternative music.

You won't find new music on Soundcloud yet. But times have changed and of course I'll use that platform. Stay tuned! (Or something)

Why? Because I really think that THIS year something will FINALLY happen (like in 2001, 2004, 2008,...).
Seriously, odds are...
