Outpost: Party Preview
Bouncy U.K. bass-centric party
Outpost returns to Underground SF this month with its most diverse lineup yet, featuring the crunchy hardware techno of L.A.-based producer
Delivery. Delivery has only one release, a record out on Delroy Edwards' L.A. Club Resource record label, but it's quite the opening salvo, comprising two long, twisting techno cuts overlaid with distortion and fuzz. He's also responsible for Face2Face, an L.A.-based party that has hosted guests from the burgeoning American "outside techno" scene — to give you an idea where he's coming from. In a contrast from Delivery's rough, raw sound, Outpost is also hosting San Francisco duo
GLSS, affiliated with local label
Popgang, who produce glossy, upbeat house with a touch of nu-disco flavor. They're accessible and easy to groove to and should make an excellent appetite-whetter for the evening.
Michael Claus, Outpost resident, will be on warmup duty, and will likely be packing some of his latest productions to play out.
