The stage moniker of Joseph Richmond Seaton, Call Super is known for his meticulous approach to the composition, production, art direction, and presentation of his work. He also pro- duces music under the name Ondo Fudd, and his sound has been compared to acts like Ri- cardo Villalobos and Brian Eno. His 2017 al- bum, Arpo, was praised by critics, with Pitchfork’s Andy Beta noting in his review of the record, “There’s a sense here that Seaton is seeking to move beyond such tropes in dance music towards something not yet de- fined.” 10 p.m. Thursday, at Floyd, 34 NE 11th St. Suite B, Miami; floydmiami.com. Tickets cost $18 to $21 via dice.fm. JOSE D.
