Delivered in Hamburg, Germany, Ridha transferred to Berlin when he was 21 years of age. Chiefly motivated by Daft Punk, he set up himself being a talented manufacturer in 2004 using the International Deejay Gigolo Information 12″ one The Bomb/Boy Neu. In 2005 Ridha founded Boysnoize Information and released a set of Guys Noize 12″ singles (Optic/He-Man, Volta 82) in the label, which eventually featured the task of Einzeller, John Starlight, Eastwest, I-Robots, PUZIQUe, Housemeister, Female B, Les Petits Pilous, yet others. On the other hand, he created one-off produces for Anthony Rother’s Datapunk label (Are You In?, 2005), Tiga’s Turbo label (Erole Attakk, 2006), and Kitsuné Music (FEEL GREAT [Television=Away], 2007). Oi Oi Oi (2007) proclaimed the full-length record debut of Ridha as Guys Noize; Last Gang Information licensed the record for discharge in THE UNITED STATES, along with an EP of remixes, Oi Oi Oi Remixed.
