Flying Lotus’ new album You’re Dead is out tomorrow and first impressions of it are a mixed bag of psych-jazz and his own inimitable brand of electronic compositions, the latter standing out the most, particularly on a single track like ‘Never Catch Me’, Disclaimer: needs more listens though. The new video by Hiro Mura, fitting for an album revolving around death, takes place at a funeral and features two brilliant young deceased kids dancing out the church on their way to the afterlife.
Tomorrow is The Day Of The Dead where Flying Lotus will live stream 24 hours of live album broadcasts featuring full-length “Psychadelic Death Trip” film by Xavier Magot while Boiler Room will broadcast it on a loop. Starts at 11pm tomorrow night.
