Born in Tacoma, Washington, electronic beatsmith Elliot Lipp grew an affinity for early hip-hop and electro from a young age, and when he was old enough, he left his quiet existence in Tacoma for a more art-centric life in San Francisco. After an eventual move to Los Angeles, he delved headfirst into production and was soon noticed by renowned electronic musician Scott Herren, known by his moniker Prefuse 73, who offered him a recording contract. This proved to be the catalyst that Lipp needed to jump-start his career, and after releasing his debut LP in 2006, Lipp has been touring quite frequently to promote his innovative albums and EPs. Bolstering his unique sound by using analog synths and hip-hop styled beats, he's able to build an extremely methodical sonic aesthetic that tends to go over well with connoisseurs of electronic music.
