Outsider house (originally spawned as outsider dance,[1] also known as raw house[2]) is a subgenre of house music, combining elements of deep house, techno, noise, and ambient, with artists embracing lo-fi techniques rather than the polished cleanliness of mainstream deep house and other EDM genres.[3][4]
The term "outsider dance" was first coined in 2012 by DJ Ben UFO[3] and emphasized by music journalist Scott Wilson,[1] referring to different producers and record labels "operating at the fringes of the fringes" such as Laurel Halo, Anthony Naples.[1] However, Ben UFO himself called the term "off-the-cuff formulation", reacting negatively to the term taking hold and circulating, stating "I'm not exactly happy that it's now being held up as a genre, because I think this outsider thing just doesn't do justice to the artists and their music. ... [outsider house artists] are my friends, we get along well and support each other".[5]
