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...

The biggest Influence in our life is...

AD: music, books, music, art, music music music...

JJ: and food and critical theory

The internet

AD: is one of the most amazing inventions and makes life so much easier and interesting (if you know where to stop).

JJ: is the sum of its users

If we could turn back time.....

AD: I would buy myself some Microsoft, Apple and Nokia stocks (and do some other things mostly illegal though...)

JJ: I wouldn't eat that cake

Our first gig was

The beginning of a wonderful friendship.

The funniest thing we've ever heard

Can't recall the funniest but this was kind of cute: "Hey! I know you - what's your name again? You are you are, ehrm, the fuck girls, right?"

Food and music

Make life worth living.

The best food in the world

AD: is hummus, tea and cookies, Italian, Asian and whatever they serve in the restaurant at the end of the universe...

JJ: veggies with spices and herbs . and cheese. and chanterelle mushrooms. and olive oil. and truffles. and avocado. and hummus and what did AD say again?

One place you should definitely visit

Is that place in your head where you hide yourself from yourself.

The happiest moment of every day

AD: is to wake up again...

JJ: dinner-time

The best advice we ever got

AD: "Don't follow advice, make your own"

JJ: "Floss daily"

    Absolutely love this mix too, really nicely put together and it doesn't get too frantic toward the end either. Didn't get a tracklist though I'm afraid. I'll see if we can get one.
