Lowriders is a foundation that explores the spaces between genres of electronic music in its programming.
Started off 2006 as an idea for a dubstep evening, Lowriders grew in a short time from an exploration of the possibilities that dubstep offered, to a search for the outer limits of dance music.
Lowriders Recordings was a next step from 2010-2017 (discogs)
In recent years we have increasingly focused on the suburbs of electronic music. Our main focus is the crossovers between genres, styles and experiments.
As program makers, curators, taste makers and music lovers, we note that the range of electronic music in the Netherlands and especially in Rotterdam is dominated by house, techno and disco. There is not enough adventure in programming for our taste. While it is precisely at the edges of genres and in the outlying areas where these genres interfere with each other, the best, most exciting discoveries can be made.
For us it happens there. At the place where the experiment comes to the surface in an unstable, investigative jet outspoken form, we, as program makers, like to listen. That is precisely where we want to create structural offerings.
