The Mint in LA’s Carthay Square neighborhood has long been a home for underground blues, jazz, funk and jam bands, but it’s also becoming a space for up-and-coming electronic artists, particularly those signed to Pretty Lights Music, of late.

Back in March, Brooklyn-based electro/hip-hop/bass duo Break Science wrapped up its Seven Bridges tour at the diminutive club (read our show review here), pleasing the small, but vibrant crowd that came ready to dance.

Then, on Wednesday night, another PLM act by way of New York stopped by The Mint, as Eliot Lipp stepped onstage and laid down a number of grooves spanning from hip-hop to techno to jazz fusion.

We were there to capture Lipp’s 90-minute set, highlighted by a couple of tracks off his 2012 album Shark Wolf Rabbit Snake.

Brooklyn-based producer Eliot Lipp has been hypnotizing dance floors across the globe for more than 10 years with his unique brand of electro funk, combining elements of hip-hop, jazz and techno all into one larger-than-life sound. Hailing originally from Tacoma, Wash., Lipp isn’t afraid to take risks when it comes to crafting never-been-heard-before beats and breaks — and it’s certainly paid big dividends for him. Last year, he was named one of Vibe magazine’s “Top 10 Fast-Rising DJs of Summer 2013” while earning praise from a host of other major music outlets. The analogue synthesizer enthusiast has released seven full-length albums to date, including 2012’s Shark Wolf Rabbit Snake on Pretty Lights Music. Playing his first LA show in more than two years, Lipp makes his debut at The Mint with support from The Dead Men and Kaw. -Josh Herwitt
