Sick Girls

The Sick Girls hail from Berlin, but you won't find them playing house or techno. They're one of the few acts in the city representing the current wave of grime/Baltimore/bass sounds. The girls started out organising and booking parties for many years for two of Berlin's most famous clubs Tresor & WMF, and one night back in 2004 decided to play together for fun, instantly discovering that they shared the same, quite unusual taste of music considering their "oh-so techno" surroundings. They have a real knack for mashing up, re-editing & remixing whatever track or whatever style in whatever order they feel. If you have a good rummage through their record box you'll find all sorts of grime, baile funk, Baltimore, hip-hop, crunk, dancehall, dubstep, electro and every other edgy genre in between from around the globe. Here they've laid down an exclusive "in ya face" party mash-up, turn up your woofers...
