Gold Panda The U.K. producer deftly blends crackly vinyl samples with ambient synths and a consistent ear for screwball melody. His album “Lucky Shiner” has brewed into a hit in electronic circles and occupies an enticing place among dubstep, electronica, disco and glitch-pop.

Patrick Stump The Fall Out Boy frontman has a debut solo album “Soul Punk.” With its sleek club-pop synths, flowery R&B singing and ultra-earnest lyrics about economic hardship and hometown pride, “Soul Punk” fulfills no known stereotype; it never allows you to tune out, confident in your assumption of where the music is headed.

MOVIES

Proto-Ethnographic Works In this anthropology-themed program curated by Nancy Buchanan, several filmmakers disavow “objectivity” and instead actively participate with their subjects. Films include Juan Downey’s “The Singing Mute,” made with the Yanomami tribe in the Amazon; Wendy Clarke’s “Love Tapes,” which invites 800 people to record thoughts about love; and “What Does Pop Art, Pop Music, Pornography and Politics Have to Do with Real Life?,” a Warhol remake from 1990 that demands that we pay closer attention to our surroundings. Buchanan and filmmakers Kathy Rae Huffman and Azian Nurudin will be present for discussion afterward. REDCAT, 631 W. 2nd St. 8:30 p.m. (213) 237-2800. $10.
