What's up Loafers!?! real quick, before we get to the content … just wanted to say hi!!! Y'know, introduce myself, all that jazz, as I'm finally gonna start contributing here on Tampa Calling. I'm Jack. I promote shows and select tunes (w/ my boy DJ Archaea) and I've actually been heading up my own blog as well for a minute now … Well, that's enough of that for the time being. Anyway, here it is: my first post, copied directly from the aestheticized >>> blog and focused squarely on the out-of-towners playing this Saturday night at Creative Loafing's Sensory Overload 4 point 0.
ELIOT LIPP = Over the last 5+ years, Mr. Lipp has consistently produced some of the world's finest Electro/Glitch-Hop, for a handful of the hottest labels in the game (Eastern Developments, Hefty, Mush, etc.). His music is marked by an obsessive exploration of the place where analog synths and software-based composition meet, his sound almost immediately recognizable (a quality all-too-rare in Electronic Music) — rich and relentlessly melodic lines laced over funky breaks and broken beats. He just released Peace Love Weed 3D on his own Old Tacoma imprint; highly recommended for fans of PREFUSE 73, DABRYE, DJ SHADOW, Golden-Era Hip Hop, etc.
mp3s and more on Michna after the jump…
