bubbhasdance Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I know it's an electronic music forum but this man gave so much to music, his own life, literally. In his later years, I would say he used just as much synths and samples as any other electronic musician. If you're a fan, show your respects here, and I'd love to hear some stories as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EPa5sIbhcI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgV3n7sd34w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aiI94CYeac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I've only ever heard Donuts. I've only ever played it like once. I should perhaps play it again. I will play these vids when I have time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Kingdom Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Yes indeed, he so much for Detroit hip-hop (and Hip-Hop in general!) Definitely gone before his time. Didn't plan it, but I've actually got two of his discs in the car right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxus Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 yeah he was brilliant. but i'm pissed that he seems to be the target of so much hype and mimicry since his death. i can't get into flying lotus because he just sounds like a sketchier, less confident attempt at dilla's style [to me].

bubbhasdance Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 ^^ I kinda feel the same way, especially with Lotus' earlier work with July Heat and Reset EP and the like. Going from Los Angeles, he seems to be finding more of his own sound, and not just a post-Dilla producer with scattered electronics everywhere. I'm interested to see where he goes with this 'space opera' business, it might be the best thing for him, getting away from that boom-bap genre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDobalina Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Yeah, there has been a lot of sketchy shit and cashing in going on following his passing, though from what little sense I can make of it, it seems like the shenanigans involving his 'estate' dicking over his family finally seem to be resolved.
