Flying Lotus – Until the Quiet Comes (Album)

One of this month’s most anticipated releases and finally available is the mastermind of everything experimental, Flying Lotus’ new album, Until the Quiet Comes. With so many critically acclaimed albums and sold out performances under his belt, he yet adds another gem to his long list of well executed pieces making it one of my favorite album releases of the year. Add a well constructed and innovative sound with the vocal collaborations of Tom Yorke and you’ve got yourself the perfect chill out Sunday soundtrack. The album consistently provides you with a diverse and refreshing sound with his dynamic melodies and hip hop touch from start to finish. Give it a listen below! [Read more...]

Small Moments: Until The Quiet Comes preview

Flying Lotus is one of those artists who is constantly evolving his sounds, experimenting across genres, and producing some of the most unique tracks out there. In this artsy short film titled, Small Moments, director Beeple and Flylo create a short introduction to his new album Until The Quiet Comes, which is set for release on October 1st/2nd through Warp Records. Each of the eighteen tracks on the album is previewed for a couple seconds and accompanied by  fast and colorful cinematography. Just over a minute long, this short film is as aesthetically pleasing to watch as it is enjoyable to listen. Until The Quiet Comes previews more jazzy and eccentric sounds than what Flylo normally produces, so we are excited to hear the entire album when it is released. You can pre-order the album HERE.
