Lorin Ashton, better known by his stage name Bassnectar, uses sudden drops and rapid-fire tempo changes to weave a trippy pastiche of free-form electronica. Though he's been touring aggressively since his 2001 debut, Freakbeat for the Beatfreaks, Ashton has been adamant about keeping his sound fresh, hence the heavy dubstep influence on his latest record, Divergent Spectrum. Tonight he shares a bill with the electronica-minded jam band EOTO and the remix artist R/D.
