instrumental/hip-hop

Steve Ellison's deeply dubby, haunted hip-hop beats and pieces should fit right in amid the mirrored shards and fragments of the Painted Bride's Isaiah Zagar walls. The L.A.-based producer, who turned heads with last year's Dilla-esque Los Angeles LP (issued, aptly, on Warp Records), is here to kick off King Britt's Saturn Never Sleeps monthly, and Ellison shares a good deal with the dream-driven mosaicist: Both artists' work is at once enveloping and disorienting, gritty and spacious, texturally evocative, phantasmagoric and phat.

Sat., Sept. 26, 8 p.m., $20, with Shabazz Palaces and the Saturn Never Sleeps Ensemble with King Britt, Painted Bride, 230 Vine St., 215-925-9914, paintedbride.org.
