Description

Outsider House is a gritty style of Deep House music characterised by its DIY nature, intentional use of lo-fi production, and utilising a mix of analogue and digital instrumentation. It stands in opposition to the recent commercialization of deep house by avoiding the polished sounds that have caught on in the mainstream. Ron Morelli's Long Island Electrical Systems label is considered the hub of this sub-genre, paving the way for such producers as Delroy Edwards, Anthony Naples, and Huerco S., coming from various backgrounds and applying Punk or avant-garde ethos to Dance music.
