RON SWARNER: ELIOT LIPP AT THE NEW FRONTIER LOUNGE >>>

Popped into the New Frontier Lounge for the Eliot Lipp show just as the Brad Paisley concert crowd poured out of the Tacoma Dome. Cowboy hats and b-boys swirled about in peace at East 25th Street.

Inside the New Frontier New York City's Michna with his four-piece band, Raw Paw, played bangin' instrumental hip-hop creating a dense blanket of sound and texture with drums, electronics and Michna on trombone. Their light show dazzled.

The set from Tacoma-to-Brooklyn beat maker Eliot Lipp was a revelation in disco-infused electrofunk with laptop beats matched by cool synthetic keyboard noises and his interaction with the crowd.

Lipp's parents dropped by to check out their son's blippy Lipp-y electronics.
