HAPPY THURSDAYYYY AHHHHH!!! 🤎
Today is a special one 🥹 I was joined by an artist who doesn’t just make music but builds entire universes out of it. A producer, composer, filmmaker, label founder, and one of the most forward-thinking minds of the last two decades, who has consistently sat slightly ahead of the curve, bending it in his own direction.
IM TALKING ABOUT FLYING LOTUS!
Tomorrow, March 6th, he releases his brand new EP ‘BIG MAMA’, his first new commercial project since 2024’s Spirit Box.
The project is glitchy, 8-bit, unpredictable; It feels like digital memory melting and reforming in real time. It feels chaotic, but intentional. Human, but machine-touched. And in true FlyLo fashion, it refuses to sit comfortably in any one genre.
Throughout our conversation, we’re moved in and out of the EP dipping into these tracks as we talk through the process, the philosophy, and the world behind them.
Listen back, take the “kaiju bomb with a big booty” ; BIG MAMA, in full.
