Flying Lotus took to his soundcloud on Tuesday to share three previously unheard tracks from the You’re Dead (2014) LP sessions. Our favorite from the lot is the CMBR sounds of the Thundercat featuring “NO Feeer”. Thank u FlyLo.

Flying Lotus – Coronus, The Terminator

flyinglotus

Lord Flying Lotus evokes the otherworldly visceral quality of Donald Byrd’s version of “Cristo Redentor” distilled through modern beats music on “Coronus, The Terminator”. FlyLo’s You’re Dead! LP is due October 7th on Warp Records.

Smoke DZA – Just My Thoughts (Prod. By Flying Lotus)

smoke DZA

NYC’s highest FlyLo stan (guessing) Smoke DZA takes to Until the Quiet Comes instrumental “Getting There” and clocks through a solid run of bars doing well to smoothly navigate the tricky beat. “Just My Thoughts” is taken from Steve-O’s “We Are Alive #7” podcast coming out next week.

Flying Lotus & Thundercat – MmmHmm (GDNA Rewurk)

GDNA

A million times yes! New fave GDNA out of Southern California adds a pitch perfect dreamy space age jazz touch to Flying Lotus’ “MmmHmm” track from 2010’s Cosmogramma. Normally, remixing FlyLo would be fraught w/ all sorts of danger/red flags but GDNA’s mix is of such a quality that you almost forget it was Flying Lotus’ track to begin with (which is saying a ton).

Mac Miller – S.D.S. (Prod. Flying Lotus)

mac-miller-sds

Wow, we had no idea The Lotus Man had any idea who Mac Miller was either, but here it is; as the much derided (but can still spit) Mr. Miller tries his lyricism on top a fresh FlyLo beat with “S.D.S.”.

Flying Lotus – See Thru To U (Cosmo & Paat Remix)

Sydney twin brother duo Cosmo & Paat put on offer an inspired early 90’s dance-infused mix of Flying Lotus’ latest with Erykah Badu. We’ve not really heard FlyLo remixed quite in this way before but we’re digging the juxtaposition and dynamic of the two disparate styles. Check it.

Flying Lotus – Between Friends (Feat. Earl Sweatshirt and Captain Murphy)

Yep, you’re gonna like this. Adult Swim delivers again with the latest in its Singles Program connecting Flying Lotus with Sweatshirt guy and Charlie Murphy (probably Tyler the Creator). The neatly tipped jazz ‘n’ vibes are on full offer here as the featured MCs skate on top FlyLo’s superior tones.

Flying Lotus – Massive Attack (vibeangel mix1)

flylo

One of our all-time favs Fly Lo threw down on some unreleased tracks on his Soundcloud last night. Among the 8 as of yet unheard tracks are some real gems. Our favorite of which is this “Massive Attack” mix. And, yes, the track does a bit remind of that legendary group, it sounds more of the great Massive Attack mixes Mad Professor did. Of course, this is Fly Lo and the track is super brilliant/mindblowing in its own right. Sample for yourself below. p.s. You know that other bloke in the photo will be spinning one these new tracks on his programme tonight.

Flying Lotus – Tea Leaf Dancers (B.Lewis Remixes) (Feat. Andreya Triana)

peterblewis

b3sci fav B.Lewis offers a ‘choice’ of “Tea Leaf Dancers” in the form of two remixes. The first, “Stay,” is mellow and groovy. The second, “Leave,” takes a different direction with syncopation and harmonic accompaniment. Staying true to the original, both are worth checking out.

B.Lewis/Flying Lotus – Choice One: Stay (Feat. Andreya Triana)

Flying Lotus – Caravan of Delight

flylo2

Maybe a slightly more jazzed up quality on this new Flying Lotus tune. It sort of carries a similar aesthetic to Roy Ayers more mellow ’70’s material. Add to that Fly Lo’s usual haul of killer polyrhythms and rich ambient textures and you’re left smoothing out to a pretty sick track. “Caravan of Delight” will feature on the new Ed Banger release King of Limbs Let the Children Techno expect quality shit from Skream, Mr. Oizo and SebastiAn to also feature on the compilation.
