Biography
Los Angeles, United States
Flying Lotus released his first album, 1983 on Plug Research Records in 2006. His June 2008 release, Los Angeles, released on Warp with cover art designed by Build & Timothy Saccenti, was released to positive critical reviews. His third album, Cosmogramma, was released on Warp in 2010 to further critical acclaim. His fourth album, Until the Quiet Comes, has been released through Warp in October 2012.
As well as serious album work, remixes and production for artists such as Blu, Hodgy Beats, Gonjasufi, Oddisee and John Robinson, FlyLo is also responsible for many of the musical loops heard during the ‘bumps’ on Adult Swim, as well as being a casual filmmaker.
Being the great-nephew of Alice Coltrane, John Coltrane’s wife, Ellison comes from a musical heritage about which he says: “My greatest influences are my family, I’m lucky to have been around so many accomplished musicians.” When discussing the sources of his imagination and inspiration, he explains that : “I see these tracks as little short films that play in my head… I have this beautiful lemon tree in my backyard, and on a sunny day the light shines through.

MISTAKE. My previously posted links posted are now dead/un-functioning. In that case, here, again, are "premaster" versions of some Flying Lotus songs, along with equalizers to make them sound closer to the retail versions of the songs. The "BBC Radio" equalizer can be used on most 'tinny' or 'canned' material, as some radio rips I've heard sounded a bit lacking. This EQ will compensate for the apparently lacking frequenices. Enjoy!

@Unkn0wnnumb3rs: I'd say he's done jazz/bossa-nova (Unexpected Delight, Arkestry, German Haircut, Only If You Wanna)....but he is also 'jazzy'. As in, his royal lineage (Coltrane!) his speech pattern/mannerisms, his music's sense of texture and depth, and free-form style.
