DJ Piere, founder of Acid House, to headline Afro Acid showcase Saturday October 25th! Afro Acid began as a style of playing and making music free of boundaries and restrictions. It is a mixture of different sounds from Deep Funky House, to a Techy harder sound as an outlet for Acid House originator, Wild-Pitch Innovator, DJ Pierre to use a platform of self expression, not wanting to be defined by one genre of music. Symbolized by the Afro Acid Man-a smiley face with an afro and a pick with a peace sign, talented artists such as House Of Stank, DJ M-TRAXXX, Sean Nash, Mikon-Aistra, DJ Rhenaut, Hologram Hookers, Johnny Fiasco, Timo Garcia, Danny Howells, Honey Dijon, James Curd, Craig Mitchell, Kid Massive, and Deepfactor have made their home.
