Back in stock! Instrumental hip hop has long failed to excite any kind of reaction from a largely disinterested crowd over the last couple of years - but thanks to a new school of producers - Rustie, Dr. Who Dat, Lukid and Flying Lotus at the top of the pile - things are looking up. Following on from the great, largely overlooked "1983" album for Plug Research, Flying Lotus has slowly but steadily become a name people have started to seek out, w...

There are moments of absolute brilliance spread across this long awaited 17 track album, and its those tracks that refuse to settle comfortably into any recognisable genre that give credence to the assertion that Steven Ellison is one of the most gifted and interesting producers operating in hip hop at the tail end of the noughties. Of course this guy has been hyped to death in recent months - his tantalising family connections (his great-aunt is... READ MORE ABOUT: FLYING LOTUS, Los Angeles, Warp ![]()
The concluding section of Flylo's 3x12" remix trip takes an astral derivé through meditatively calm avenues guided by Dimlite, MatthewDavid, Take, Breakage and Rebekah Raff. In comparison to the previous 12"s there's more emphasis on beatless ambience here, from the head swimming dynamics of Matthew David's 'Comet' rework, to two exclusive Flylo compositions featuring the talents of Harpist Rebekah Raff; the DMT-dreamy 'Endless White' and 'Spin C...

Back in stock! We all love a bit of Dabrye - and since the man's hiccupping electro-hop was used on a high-profile mobile phone advert, it seems the rest of the world does too. It was only a matter of time then before we heard other producers utilising the much-lauded producer's template for vintage synth sounds and booty-shakin' rhythms, but although Dabrye may be the first name to spring to mind when listening to Flying Lotus's debut album, fur...

The second installment in Warp's series of super scarce Flying Lotus twelves is upon us, bursting at the seams with remixed goodness from some of the world's finest beat jiggers, Martyn, Ras G, Nosaj Thing, Samiyam, Mike Slott and Soundmurderer. Martyn returns the favour after Flylo's stonking remix of his 'Vancouver' track with a soulful 2-Step version of 'Roberta Flack' featuring those brilliant key progressions that made his mix of TRG's 'Brok...

*STRICTLY LIMITED - 500 COPIES ONLY FOR THE WORLD* Diamond cut R'n'B and bass edits from production behemoth Flylo for all the white label fiending crew. First up is a digitally ground remake of Mr Oizo's 'Stunts', refracted through the psyched mind of Steven Ellison into a evil grinding hiphop number with some butter synth work in the closing stages, before slicing and dicing J Dilla's immense 'lightworks' into a barely recognisable fug of of ba...

*STRICTLY LIMITED COPIES - 400 ONLY IN THE UK* The first of three mad limited 12"s from the man like Flylo bumps off with some ultra fresh non-album cuts, turning on with the ace 'Sleepy Dinosaur' before bugging the rhythm for 'Rickshaw' with a wicked South East Asian string instrumentation providing a point of focus while the beat blurs in and out of view with a heavy lidded vibe hard to find anywhere else in hiphop. Dripping butter soul cut 'Ro... READ MORE ABOUT: FLYING LOTUS, Los Angeles EP 1 / 3, Warp ![]()
Now signed to Warp, this debut album from Flying Lotus is one of the best releases on the impressive Plug Research label to date.
