Warp 20 Boxset + Fly Lo EP


Newest installment of Flying Lotus' LA EP series, LA EP 3x3, has been pushed back to an August 18th release date, now including a bonus digital cut. I really enjoyed the 1x3 and 2x3 EPs, so I'm very much looking forward to the new material.
A friend of mine who introduced me to Flying Lotus two years ago, calls his music "cerebral hip-hop," and it certainly is an apt description for the uninitiated (but funny in that Fly Lo and the whole LA beat scene is pretty much synonymous with a hazy hue of blue blunt smoke).

Tracklisting:

01 - Infinitum (Dimlite’s Re-finitum)
02 - Comet - MatthewDavid
03 - Endless White
04 - Parisian Goldfish (Take Remix)
05 - Spin Cycles
06 - Testament (Breakage’s Bill’s Suit Mix)
07 - Auntie’s Harp (Rebekah Raff Remix)

Digital Bonus Track - Riot (Take Rmx)

Also, IDM/Experimental Electronic nerds rejoice: the Warp 20 Box Set comes out on September 25th. It will definitely slake the indulgences of hardcore fans, but also serve as a great, albeit pervasive introduction to those curious about the last 20 years of the pioneering label.
