Mixing his punk, rock, house and hardcore roots in sometimes crushing, sometimes melodic but always very danceable tracks is what Sick Boy does best.
Sick Boy established himself as the founder of Poptrash, an Indie/electro party, that started out as a weekly-in Amsterdam’s infamous Melkweg-party, but soon turned nationwide with parties all over the Country, booking artists like Mstrkrft, Steve Aoki, Guns n bombs, Goose, DIM and many others known for bringing the best in an ever growing scene of people who wanted to hear something different.
As one of the frontrunners of Electro in Holland his name got over the map and after years of playing in Bands he decided to go for it alone under the Sick Boy name,
given by Moving Units frontman Blake Miller. As soon as he started he got signed by Dutch Blacklabel to release his first EP, soon followed by his second EP released on NYC label Kinetika. Soon his Eps were followed by remixes for Motor, Dirty Disco youth, Stereoheroes, La tourette Modek and lots of others on labels like Dim mak, Crux, Kiez Beats, Loliland records and others.
In the Meantime Sick Boy has been playing the biggest festivals in Holland (Dance Valley, Lowlands) and all over the world From the States (Los angeles, San fransisco, New York to Austin’s SXSW), Spain (Low Club, Razzmatazz), Germany (Villa/Berlin) France (Sous le pont) to Countries like Finland, Belgium and other places sharing the Stage with the biggest of them all like Justice, Steve Aoki, Sinden, Les Petit pilous, Boysnoize, Mstrkrft, Congorock and lots of others.
2010 will be a huge year. Sick Boy released Hysteria on Kinetika with remixes by amongst others Motor. He released Energy Blast on Kiez Beats with remixes by Tom deluxx, Jasko of gooseflesh and other with overwhelmingy Positive reviews. His new Motor edit is now available on DIMMAKS RCRDLBL page and was number one in the fav list of Motor tracks. Not so bad after having one of the most downloaded Justice remixes in 2007 for their track D.A.N.C.E (Blake miller vs Sick boy remix)
Finally out now “Boom”!
