Maximum Strength Sound System
In the works since 99, and always as such, they design and build custom loudspeaker enclosures. Optimized for dance music, you'll likely seem them at dance parties and clubs and such, playing techno, reggae, world beats, even some bands (if you ask very nicely). They put an emphasis on hi-fi sound as opposed to overwhelming volume, so you can hopefully get some sleep after the show without those annoying ringing ears.

U-C Drum N Bass
UCDNB began as a small group of friends playing records for each other. Their passion toward the music culminated in the website UCDNB.com, an outlet for the junglist ethos in C-U. Since launching in Aug. 2004, it has become an gathering spot for not only the drum 'n' bass culture but for all local electronic music enthusiasts, with news, a message board, music recommendations, event listings, and their own house parties.

U-C Hip Hop
Formed in the fall semester of 2001, a group of like-minded but culturally diverse converged to fill the void in a hip-hop community. Illini Breakdancing Club, Culture Club, and Organization for the Advancement of Hip Hop Culture all united to create University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Hip Hop Congress. Initially, the organization was mainly comprised of local artists and hip-hop enthusiasts. The structure was developed to celebrate hip-hop culture, but it has slowly evolved into what it is today.
Today, UC Hip-Hop does more than just relish in its cultural roots. UC Hip-hop organizes showcases, expositions, competitions, and educational workshops not just for college attendees, but also for high schools and local community centers. Furthermore, UC Hip-Hop artists are frequently invited to perform in events sponsored by other campus or local organizations. Ultimately, UC Hip-Hop still continues to grow and develop into one of the most diverse organizations on campus. It never stops creating, performing, thinking, educating, and it certainly never stops celebrating hip-hop.

C-U Dance
C-U Dance is a DJ run mailing list providing local electronic music enthusiasts a list of the latest parties, club events, podcasts and other goodies from the Champaign-Urbana electronic scene.
