Flying Lotus - 2×3 EP

Flying Lotus - 2×3 EP
[Warp, 2008]

The second of the three EPs from Steven Ellison, aka Flying Lotus. After a wonderful Los Angeles album it seems, there’s nothing more to write about, it’s been all said. But the 9-track EP does deserve a couple of words (that again fail me).

It’s a remix album… that is, EP - but still sounds like a whole album. These music bullets shot right at your ears, have been prepared together with Mike Slott, Nosaj Thing, Ras G, Samiyam, Exile, Monopoly, and more. Roberta Flack in Mike Slott’s version sounds like a miracle, airy and uplifting. In general, 2×3 EP brings new light to the tracks you know: with Darth Vader’s breathing, with clicks and clacks of heavy artillery, all kinds of metallic toys banging, with streams of air through architectural structures… The music that builds new and new layers of unique atmosphere around you.
