One of the finest Record Store Day releases right here, in our humble opinion. FlyLo’s Alt Takes reads through like a rudimentary sketchbook of the excellent Cosmogramma album. Considering that album is bursting out the seams with ideas, then this stripped down affair is also quite a delight – perfect, zoned-in vibes. A fantastic release for [...]
Warp rolls out a new track from Flying Lotus in anticipation of his new EP Pattern+Grid World. Guess what? It’s totally bananas and it’s $17 and limited to 2000 at bleep.com. Don’t let this one slip through your fingers.
This could possibly be one of the most anticipated albums of the year for OMGV: a new piping hot double slab of beats from Flying Lotus, arguably one of the best producers operating in the current scene. All early indicators point towards this being an absolute mindfuck of an album in which Flying Lotus masters [...]
Following up on his last blink-and-ya-missed-it 7″ single (complete with foil cover prayer book) the man known as Gonjasufi is releasing the track “Kowboyz & Indians” from his forthcoming album as a limited edition featuring a non-album cut on the flip side. The Flying Lotus produced track below isn’t off this single, but it’s off [...]
Stones Throw has teamed up with the folks behind The Do-Over, a series of summertime parties in LA, to release some exclusive 10″ records featuring tunes from party guests. Volume One features exclusive tracks by Flying Lotus and Detroit newcomer House Shoes. The packaging was immaculately designed by Steven Harrington, and features a duo-finish jacket, [...]
In case you couldn’t scrounge up the funds for that pre-order we posted about awhile back, we thought we would let you know that the first two installments of the Hyperdub 5th anniversary 12 inches are available currently. The tracklisting so far reads like a who’s who of the current left-field beat scene. Available at [...]
Could be alternately known as “Dublab Presents… A Lot of Our Favorite Artists on One Amazing Compilation” but I suppose “Echo Expansion” works, too. Featuring tracks from The Gaslamp Killer, Ras G, Flying Lotus and a whole host of other cosmic beat luminaries, this limited edition vinyl LP is bound to please and certain to [...]
Dubstep is putting a hurting on my wallet this week. Bleep announced today that it is offering a pre-order for the forthcoming 12″ series from Hyperdub celebrating 5 years in the beats business. There are some amazing names on this series, all contributing unreleased tracks. The first two twelve inches alone feature tracks from Flying [...]
You may recall, we posted news on the pre-order for the most recent (and final) L.A. EP from Flying Lotus a month or so ago. Just thought ya’ll might like to know its starting to pop up in distros. This one contains a handful of new remixes and two brand new tracks from the man [...]
This recently popped back up in the turntablelab.com store. Not sure if it is the original white label (limited to 500) or the recent bootleg. Either way, these jams are hot as shit. $12 right now at turntablelab.com but I kind of doubt it will last long.
