About Micky Slim
He rose to fame on the back of the success of the anthemic electro house mashup Jump Around, but it’d be unwise to write off Micky Slim as a one-hit wonder. This dance music hardman is one of the heaviest-hitting DJ/producers to emerge off the streets of Birmingham, ands as he reveals to ITM he’s got plenty coming up in 2009. “I’m really focusing hard on developing my label Bombsquad Records, we have plenty of solid releases lined up for 2009 as well as touring the UK and Europe as Bombsquad Soundsystem, our own 20k rig, we are doing 2 dates in the summer at Judgement Sunday and an outdoor stage at Global Gathering UK as well as various club dates.” So it’s all happening for the house music’s favourite Brummie!

Micky Slim’s bio plays up his reputation as a ‘bad boy’, but he insists it’s all a bunch of hot air. “We all have a past, mine is a little bit murkier than others. I don’t take no shit off anybody so I guess that’s where it comes from, I am a nice guy really.” Of course, this is from the same guy who describes his production style as “Big Bad and Heavy,” and his DJ style as “Bigger Badder and Heavier.” He’s hitting the festival stage across the country for the Good Vibrations tour during February, so we’re all heading for a Brummie-style smackdown. ITM braces for a severe belting.
