Shroombab (AUSTRIA)
Dj / Producer / Labelowner / Promoter / Press
Shroombab started listening to drum'n'bass around 1996 when she discovered the sound of her heart during a trip to UK. At this time she was already writing for different music magazines (e.g."Breakbeat Magazine") when she was invited to start her own radio show ("Electronic Vibes") at Radio FRO back in 1998 on a Saturday night. Many guest DJs appeared on her show and their sound gave her the inspiration to start dj-ing herself. At the beginning she mixed in the studio of the Austrian non-profit Radio FRO, and a couple of months later she bought her first Technics and a proper mixer.
In spring '99 it all started, Shroombab had her first public performance at an open-air party. The rest is history: She got a residency at Donau, a large & very well-known Vienniese bar where many local DJs started their career and which consists of a very nice architecture and central setting. More and more people listened to her sound and liked it, so she got her first bookings at some Vienniese clubs like Kunstwerk and Subzero, and she got invited for many local radio shows @ Radio Orange and FM4. Shroombab also made the 2nd place at a "DJ Contest" in 1999. Apart from that, she started writing party reviews for Austria's largest event-webpage (club.at) and reviewing drum'n'bass-records for the "Breakbeat magazine".
In 2000 Shroombab met MC Terra and together they founded the Junglistic Sistaz, a female Drum'n'Bass-collective. Their crew soon became very popular, and many club promoters invited the girls to play. Together with MC Terra, she started to run the clubnight "BASS LAND" which established itself as a fixed institution in the scene - many local and international DJs played at their Friday night sessions that are still going on irregularly now. Apart from numerous national bookings to the best and most established clubs all over Austria alongside established acts like DILLINJA, DJ STORM, DJ SPICE, BAD COMPANY, MAKAI, FAITH IN CHAOS, MICKEY FINN, ALLEY CAT, COUNTER STRIKE, D.KAY, MC JENNA G, or mostly as a headliner herself, Shroombab also got a growing number of international bookings in Switzerland, Germany and Hungary in 2001; in UK, Germany, Slovenia, Netherlands and Czechia in 2002; Switzerland, Germany, Slowakia, Slovenia, Czechia, UK, Hungary,Italy and South Africa in 2003. In November 2003 she attended the "Red Bull Music Academy" in Cape Town (SA), and was chosen as a participant from more than 2000 entries.
Additionally to DJ-ing, Shroombab always had a big interest in music production, and it was also back in 2000 when she started producing. Since this time period she collaborated with Mr. Polarity from Germany, Tomkin from Trickdisc Recordings and more recently she also works on solo tunes. Shroombab & Polarity already finished a numerous amount of tracks and in March 2002 - after perfectionizing their production skills - they founded the drum'n'bass-label "High Tension Recordings" and put out their first release "Stronghold/Rolling Thunder". It received a very good press. Meanwhile their tunes get dropped into sets by Aphrodite, Mickey Finn, L Double, Andy C, Nicky Blackmarket and many more big name DJs. Some of their current stuff got signed to different international and well-established labels such as Urban Takeover (UK), Urbadon Rec. (USA), Protogen (GER), Giana Brotherz (GER), Trickdisc (A) etc. So watch out for their names popping up in 2004!
Shroombab is now known for spinning the freshest drum'n'bass with dancefloor- and jump-up orientated rhythms, wicked basslines and atmospheric breaks. Her mixing is fast, and tight. When she drops the bassline, nobody can resist dancing. Getting productions and promo-vinyl from Austrian and international artists, she has established herself as one of Austria's most booked drum'n'bass djs. Her current favourite labels are Full Cycle, Drop On Request, Cargo, Urban Shakedown, RAM, M.A.S.H., etc.
In autumn 2002 Shroombab started a new project: She launched the website http://www.junglistic-sistaz.com as an international data:base for female junglists with a daily growing number of female artists. Meanwhile five Junglistic Sistaz events took place internationally at some well-establsihed clubs in Austria, Switzerland, Germany and UK. Apart from that, Shroombab launched Junglistic Sistaz Radio at http://www.dnbradio.net that currently represents DJs from 10 different countries.
Shroombab also continues to work on new productions and does not intend to stop DJ-ing at all. So you better keep an eye on her!
