Brand New Essential Mix – 10.10.09 – Boys Noize

By nobo at October 10, 2009 | 11:20 am | 0 Comment

This essential mix was pretty good, definitely not as wild as his live sets I've seen. But it got me pumped up before going out last night. Was streaming it live while he was in the studio so it felt like I had a personal Boys Noize set going on. I thought it was bold that he didn't play a single one of his own tracks for his essential mix, which is a bit odd more...
