San Francisco's Dead Seal (Derrick Boyd) is a techno producer and a multi-instrumentalist. He plays bass for electro group Landshark, and has been known to rock the guitar and clarinet. His minor-key–looped "Sparks" and "The Breeze," the latter with its deep thump and wolf howls, are visceral and haunting, underpinned by metronomic beats. A number of Dead Seal's labelmates from S.F.'s Auralism Records will join in celebrating the release of his debut full-length, Corpus Animus; admission includes a copy of the CD.
