Interview: Eliot Lipp talks electro

With everything that's going on tonight, FREE the WAX has got one more gig vying for your attention featuring American electro-cinematic producer maestro Eliot Lipp who is best known for his seamless weaving of 80s electro, 70s jazz-fusion and Bay Area hip hop.

                     

We jumped on the chance to hit the first PAUSE party of 2009 this last weekend, a non-profit art event organized by the dedicated music mavens of Shanghai - Phreaktion, Antidote, Uprooted Sunshine, Eklektik, and their friends. We shook our booties to electronica, dubstep, electro-grunge and Tibetan reggae, and got delightfully drunk off one of the best drink specials you'll find on the Bund. Can anyone think of a better way to spend a Sunday, rainy or no?

Where we're going this Sunday: PAUSE

The Captain's Hostel isn't just a place for enjoying Bund-like views with (relatively) cheap beers or for picking up tourists, oh no. This Sunday they're hosting the always brilliant PAUSE. These free, non-profit collaborative events with the cream of the city's creative talent have been running since 2005 and are always unmissable. This Sunday's is no different.

It's been a while, but this Sunday will see a welcome return for the PAUSE collective, who will be bringing their heady mix of independent art, music, and creative stalls to everyone's favourite ex-Blue Ice hang out, The Shelter. Kicking off at 4pm down on Yong Fu Lu, there will be a bunch of inventive things to get excited about, featuring contributors from across the globe and, of course, the cream of Shanghai's arts scene.
