Flying Lotus is commonly identified as a hip hop producer, but his style is drawn from many genres, including jazz, electronic and Brazilian music. His hip hop beats are unique for their hazy, ambient sound, while his percussion is purposefully slightly off time, creating a messier, more organic atmosphere. The addition of lyrics further adds a sense of mystery to his already down-tempo compositions.
- Flying Lotus- "Parisian Goldfish"
Flying Lotus(feat Dolly)- "RobertaFlack"
Flying Lotus- "Tea Leaf Dancers
A collection of quotes from his critics found on his myspace
Folks say..."The Tarantino of Beats", ":)", "Tomita on Coke","Donkeys drinking", "books falling down stairs on a very windy day","the bleep bleep shit", "Sweaty elephants", "futuristic jungle music", "some high shit", "God smashing on stuff with his feet", "Some movie shit", "The future"...
For those of you who watch Cartoon Network's Adult Swim you are most defiantly familiar with the soundtrack music during the periodic back screens with white writing. He is most famous (yet also uncredited) for the music in many of these segments. Because of this, the chances that he has hooked up or simply meet Tim and Eric are very likely. I mention this because recently a music video was released directed by Tim Wareheim in association with WARP Records and WARP Film. The video is to "Parisian Goldfish", and is being hosted at a more permanent web address because it continues to be banned and taken down by people who are offended by explicit images.
This video is most likely NSFW, and it has flashing colors and lights.
