Flying Lotus (aka Steven Ellison) gained notoriety while making beats for Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, joining the ranks of off-the-wall hip-hop producers like Danger Mouse and Witchdoctor. Straddling the line between hip-hop and electronica, Flying Lotus' beats betray influences ranging from Brian Eno and Portishead to his late, great aunt Alice Coltrane. Ellison follows in the footsteps of such giants as DJ Shadow and J Dilla — his music doesn't adhere to any specific genre, and doesn't need a microphone to make it interesting. Support from pan-genre bass lover Dhruva and local fave (and Surya Dub regular) Maneesh the Twista make tonight a solid date.
