Meeting at the conservatory for music in The Netherlands, Rinze ‘Ray’ Hofstee and Joep ‘Jim’ Smeele formed an instant connection bound by a shared love of music composition and electronic dance music. Drawing influences from Daft Punk, Bingo Players and Swedish House Mafia, their infectious blend of big beats and progressive house melodies quickly garnered them serious attention in all the right places. The pair have released on some of the world’s most influential imprints – Revealed Recordings, Spinnin’ Records, Warner, Interscope, Def Jam and Capital. Official remixes for The Chainsmokers, Rihanna & David Guetta, Madonna, Moby, Rita Ora, Avicii and Icona Pop have peppered the global radio airwaves, ensuring their sound reaches millions of ears in all corners of the planet.
SICK INDIVIDUALS launched their own live show; ‘THIS IS SICK’, created exclusively for their stage performances. The pair manipulate visuals and audio in real time direct from the stage, creating a whole new immersive experience for fans who flock to see them play.
