Delivery is about quality, not genres. It is a vibe, a style, a way of thinking about music beyond the limitations of beat patterns and tempos. There is no better way to wind down (or wind up) the end of your weekend than delighting in the gourmet sounds of some of the Baltimore/Washington area's finest locals.
:: DJ Sushi ::
(Brut Force: Chicago)
Grime/Garage
With his roots in r&b, hip-hop, rap, house, and drum & bass, it was no wonder that Sushi decided to assign himself the task of spreading the underground garage sound.
In fall 2001, Sushi released his mix debut, "Step In2 My Mind", composed of heartfelt, soulful garage tracks as well as heavy MC-driven breakstep tracks. It far exceeded expectations when the album broke the 500 mark for sales. Sushi's second album, "Enjoy tha Ride" was featured in the Mix-It section of the June 2003 issue of Urb Magazine.
2005 has a big year for Sushi, as far as musical experimentation. he has been working closely with Whoa-B (a member of Brüt Force) as the duo "B. Raw" to develop the stateside "g-hop" sound -- "g-hop" defining their mashup of grime, 4x4 garage, 2-step garage, and hip-hop (specifically, the midwest, crunk, and screw hip-hop styles) with the use of quick mixing, cutting, and scratching techniques. (live examples of this can be heard on the weekly Brüt Force radio show, RELOAD, on Sundays or at any of Sushi's live performances).
:: LT^2 ::
(2-Charming Crew, Five Cent Jive Cartel: Baltimore/DC)
Garage/Baltimore Club
Fresh off of their strong successes at Cubik and XS, LT^2 returns to Delivery to bring their unique blend of soulful garage classics, urban breakstep beats, and Baltimore Club raunchiness. Satisfaction is guaranteed with LT^2 at the decks. Expect to move, and dress appropriately.
:: DJ A.M.P. ::
(GroundZero, Modern Music: Baltimore)
House
One of Baltimore's fresh up-and-coming house music talents is DJ A.M.P. Fusing soulful melodies, funky rhythms, and pounding beats, there's one things you know you can say about him: He BANGS.
