Robert Smit (Sick Boy) is a Dutch music producer. Mixing his punk,rock, house and hardcore roots in sometimes Crushing, sometimes Melodic, but always very Danceable tracks is what Sick Boy does best. As he always has he looks to the Future but doesn’t forget about his Roots and makes sure that others won’t forget either. This creates a force to be reckoned with, A sound that will surprise you and will keep you in trance for as long as you ll hear him spin, making sure he keeps surprising himself so he doesn’t get burned and will defanetly keep the audience on their toes.
