Boys Noize and Snoop Lion Collaboration: Calls Him ‘Relaxing and Very Welcoming’

German DJ and music producer Alexander Ridha who goes by the stage name, Boys Noize. Ridha has gone solo for his album "Out of the Black" releasing in his own label BoysNoize Records. The DJ has worked with the likes of Spank Rock, Scissor Sisters, Kelis, UK rapper Kano, The Black Eyed Peas, the South Korean band Big Bang and Santigold. He has remixed David Lynch, N.E.R.D, Depeche Mode and The Chemical Brothers.

He has gone a notch up after working with the best in industry and has collaborated with Snoop Lion for his third record. His album's last track "Got It" took him to Snoop Dogg's studio, MTV News reported.

And contrary to the accepted notion of Snoop Lion (previously Snoop Dogg), his studio was not "this bling-bling world with champagne and girls and pimping and stuff." Ridha calls Doggfather Lion as "relaxing and very welcoming." When MTV News asked him if got to "relaxed" with Lion using the help of marijuana? Ridha grinned with two thumbs up.

"It was always my biggest dream. And I tell you this: it's all good!" said Ridha . "You know the most important thing with Snoop is? You gotta vibe first."

The German DJ has other projects like the Dog Blood collaboration with Skrillex. They have had two releases, "Next Order" and "Middle Finger." Dog Blood will be giving out live performance at New Year Eve party in Detroit, Dec. 30.

Ridha who will be concluding his tour of America next week wanted to bring the original skull that appeared in his album "Oi Oi Oi." He worked with Siriusmo, OOTB album colloborator  and painter to create that design.

"I wanted to have something raw," explained Ridha . "When I DJ, I've never had anything crazy. I just play, and I wanted to keep that vibe for me onstage and I didn't want to have it too, glamour. So I wanted it to have that thing that is just sitting there and is...metal."
