    Captain Murphy’s debut project is pretty impressive, and boats some of the best hip hop production you’ll hear this year. The most glaring issue that faces this project into the future: Lyrics. WATCH THE REVIEW

    Flying Lotus drops a short film in association with the forthcoming album he’s got on Warp Records titled Until the Quiet Comes. It’s an interesting piece of film. It’s a bit morbid, and features some kind of life after death-type experience toward the end, yet, people seem

    Sonic adventurer Flying Lotus has dropped a new track from his forthcoming album, Until the Quiet Comes, and it features the terrific Erykah Badu on vocals.

  • A video of young, Canadian jazz fusion trio BADBADNOTGOOD covering the Flying Lotus track “Camel,” which is a cut off my favorite Flying Lotus album, Los Angeles. I can’t wait ’til these guys start dropping s’more original material. BBNG also has a new EP out, featuring medleys of

    Flying dropped two tracks via SoundCloud just 11 hours ago as I’m writing this post. I assume they’re new. It’s not like the songs’ respective “descriptions” leave us much to go on: “heave (n) mix2” description: “wevgouweowowweououyouw” “lullaby” description: “wegfwejjjkwjhhjhkjjh” Take those for what you will.
