Join us for a night of great music as we welcome two of our favorite artists to the booth. Room two will be handled by the amazing Pound Puppy crew. Their events at the Eagle (and now the Stud) are consistently awesome and we are honored to have them join us. This is a No One Turned Away For Lack Of Funds event. As we all know, surviving in the Bay Area isn't cheap so if you would like to attend but don't have the means please send us a message and we will sort you out, though we ask for those who do have the means to help us support the artists we love.
Under the Interstellar Funk alias, DJ/producer Olf van Elden is fast becoming a staple feature of club and festival line-ups worldwide. His rise has not been dizzyingly rapid, but rather built on a decade spent honing his craft in the record shops, studios and dancefloors of Amsterdam.
Van Elden’s ascent in underground electronic music culture has not come as a surprise to those within Amsterdam’s club scene. He was wowing home crowds long before he bagged a sought-after residency at now-departed venue Trouw, and more recently at it’s widely beloved successor De School.
What marks out Interstellar Funk productions and DJ sets is van Elden’s love of the imperfections and eccentricities associated with left-of-centre analogue machine music. You’ll hear them within the new wave, electro, techno, jack-tracks, heavy electronics and everything in between that populate his DJ sets, as well as the solo records he’s released on Dekmantel, Berceuse Heroique and Rush Hour, the label, store and distribution company he’s been associated with since 2013.
Van Elden continually sets out to combine the unlikely, which can also be heard in his Private Eyes single for Young Marco’s SafeTrip label, and through the lo-fi murkiness of his Faster Action project on L.I.E.S. Finally, there’s his own Artificial Dance label, an outlet for new and old electronic music that fits into the DJ/producer’s intoxicating, otherworldly aesthetic.
