Guest Backson Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Perhaps if flying lotus would make something in a slightly different genre, move up the tempo, i reckon that would be really nice to hear. Would also be interested in hearing less sampling also. hmmm, no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDobalina Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I really like FL, esp cosmo. And dimlite i give props to, though for me it's more a kumquat/pumelo comparison seeing as dimlite is way more obtuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tht tne Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 i finally got ready to hop on the flying lotus bandwagon and acquired some of his music but i just don't like it... starting to lose faith in watmm's idols (cf. vhs head) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markedone Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Los Angeles is incredible. Cosmogramma has good moments but is a bit too schizo / self-indulgent Pattern + Grid World is fairly run-of-the-mill coming from him I like the guy, and I can't emphasize enough, Los Angeles is quite the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascdi Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 1. yes, this shit is recorded distractingly loud 2. do flylo and prefuse really sound that similar? i say no. i mean they are both crossover "idm"/hip-hop artists but that's really it. production-wise they could not be more opposite, i think. 2a. has prefuse really been good lately? i haven't felt much since the One Word Extinguisher era. 3. YES THIS IS STILL TOO LOUD. RESET EP AS WELL 4. there are some great flylo tracks though. the tune "Quakes" on the Warp 2010 sampler is awesome. and i have not heard the whole Gonjasufi album but the track "Ancestors" is also good. i can't really get into the Los Angeles album; it just doesn't seem that interesting to me? is it worth checking out Cosmogramma or no? i guess i wouldn't mind hearing a Thom Yorke song once in a while… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

remy marathe Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 i actually feel like his biggest influence (dilla) is the overhyped one. donuts is such an overrated album... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 1983 sounds pretty good otherwise everything else I've heard so far feels like I'm stuck in an Adult Swim bumper/ 9-11 conspiracy beats in general I kind of have a problem with songs that are overcompressed/are atmospheric but sort of force it on you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few things in life feel as good as feeling like you're the absolute shit, and if nothing else, Gonjasufi makes me feel just like that." abso-fucking nailed it.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, anti-hipsters are just as pathetic and hipsters. so happiness in life is directly related to balancing the hate for hipsterdom and the love for something hipsters like. but all the while, what makes someone a hjpster is constantly evolving. no wonder why i am never happy.

danshoebridge Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Well... FlyLo was really consistant until he put out Pattern + Grid World... that shit is kinda wack. Yeah, I don't know what the hell happened with Pattern + Grid World, sounds like a load of half-finished stuff from the back of his hard drive for the most part. His other releases have all been pretty good though. As for Prefuse, saw him live last Sunday - never realised just how much pure noise is chopped up in his later stuff, sounded quite extreme in places. I do with he'd let his tracks play for more than a minute though, listening to his later albums is like having ADHD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Backson Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I prefer Mux Mool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IExfiDYHuQ4 oh man, that's going straight to my favourite album artwork folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
