So if you didn't already know, the mysterious Cartoon Network like rap figure, Captain Murphy , unveiled himself to be the great Flying Lotus aka Steven Ellison. He dropped his first mixtape, Duality , and its an explosion of otherworldly rap material from the mastermind himself. A lot of messages transmitted in pitched down lyrical content. His reference to Indian spiritual ideologies such as Kundalini and the chakras fit in nicely with his wavy vinyl fitted cult-like rap meditative arrangements. The mixtape comes with a bunch of cool [...]

Last night in L.A., Flying Lotus revealed that "Captain Murphy" is an alias he's been using for his experimental rap side project. Stitching together unique samples with slick rhythms, it's definitely reminiscent of hip hop in the vein of DOOM, Madvillain, et al (there is even a track referencing Bat Man and another track referencing the X-Men). As you'd expect, the production is brilliant and, perhaps surprisingly, the rapping is pretty damn engaging. I'm hooked. Check out a few samples and then download the deluxe edition of his Duality mixtape for free below. [...]

Flying Lotus throws down an LA homecoming show for his latest opus, Until The Quiet Comes, and The Owl has tickets for you!
VerBS is a humorous and humble MC/singer with a truly eclectic ear for beats.

Experimental hip-hop producer extraordinaire Flying Lotus has already given the world three textured, breathing, patchwork albums, all brimming with mind-blowing aural complexities. Taking inspiration from the small corners of L.A. that he's come to love, he's created a brand blending off-kilter hip-hop, edgy electronics, and jazz and soul elements into his music. His fourth album, Until the Quiet Comes , is familiar while offering something slightly different: his signature sound, but wrapped in a dreamy, low-key blanket of sonic nuances. On Until the Quiet [...]

When it was over, all I could think about was how this entire notion of oneself, what we are, is just this logical structure, a place to momentarily house all the abstractions. It was a time to become conscious, to give form and coherence to the mystery, and I had been a part of that. It was a gift. Life was raging all around me and every moment was magical. I loved all the people, dealing with all the contradictory impulses - that's what I loved the most, connecting with the people. Looking back, that's all that really mattered. [...]

With a pop-infected take on experimental noise, Animal Collective brought its whimsical, wall-of-sound to the Hollywood Bowl. Centipede HZ replaces much of the layered, carefully crafted production from 20092s Merriweather Post Pavillion with a grungier, guitar driven aesthetic. As a live act, the quartet mixed it's aural delivery with a unique stage setup reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland. LA's own, Flying Lotus, brought an infectious, high energy set of jazzy electronics to the opening set wearing a huge smile making sure the rest of the crowd followed suit. Photos by Justin [...]
