Elm Street Productions was founded by Chris Sostad (Saucey) in Victoria, BC and quickly became known for good times. ESP successfully ran one of the only after-hours clubs in Victoria, 851, and brought many successful events, both indoor and outdoor to the Vancouver Island scene. After 3 years, Saucey decided to explore new territory in Taipei, Taiwan, where ESP has made a huge impact on the local scene: with partner Shiuan Liu (SL), ESP essentially brought House music to Taiwan with their now 3 years running Citrus party. Since Citrus, ESP has created 2 more regular nights: Connect and Deep Inside. ESP has also been involved in introducing Taiwan to top names such as Dj Sneak, Johnny Fiasco, DJ Dan, Steve Mac, Hipp-e and House legend Derrick Carter. Back in Victoria, DJ Thom Banks has been representing the ESP crew through promoting club nights, after-hours parties, and benefit events. Thom took up the project of The Devil's Kitchen after-hours, and with Raymond Lam, re-opened the fabled 851 after-hours. Thom has also brought some of House music's best talents, including John Howard from NYC, Jason Hodges from Toronto, and Shine from Montreal. Now, with ESP on both sides of the Pacific and growing as an organization, music fans can be assured of a good time on two continents.
