Boys Noize Announces First Solo Album in Five Years '7LLVSION', Drops '1+1+1' With ZEP

Authors

Boys Noize is back with his first solo album in five years. '7LLVSION' — his eighth solo LP — arrives 6 November 2026 on his ONES and ZEROS label, led by the single '1+1+1' featuring Dutch artist ZEP, out 24 September.

'1+1+1' is exactly the kind of raw-meets-processed machine music Alex Ridha built his name on — an imposing, key-shifting EBM bassline under a hyperactive new-wave rhythm, industrial and dancefloor aesthetics colliding, with ZEP's unpredictable vocal on top. The album also features Brutalismus 3000, TAICHU, Maya Alkhatari and ABRA.

A prolific stretch

Ridha hasn't exactly been quiet in those five years. He recently toured with Nine Inch Nails, co-produced the TRON: Ares soundtrack — which included the Grammy-winning 'As Alive As You Need Me To Be' — and dropped the Nine Inch Noize collaborative album in April 2026. '7LLVSION' is the return to his own name, and on this evidence it's leaning harder and darker than ever.
