Copypasta from Wikipedia: Flying Lotus, (born Steven Ellison) is an experimental multi-genre music producer, disc jockey, and laptop musician from Winnetka, California. His debut album, 1983, was released on Plug Research Records in 2006. He is most famous (yet also uncredited) for the music in many of the segues of Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, and he has also contributed remixes to fellow Plug Research artists, including Mia Doi Todd. His great-aunt is the late Alice Coltrane. He is affectionately referred to as FlyLo by fans and critics. This guy makes some crazy beats, I love his shit. My only complaint is that his songs are too short Tell me what you think Flying Lotus - Bad Actors & Orbit Brazil (My favourite) [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhxugJnBCho"]YouTube - Flying Lotus - Bad Actors & Orbit Brazil[/ame] Flying Lotus - Massage Situation [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oUx6wGCekM"]YouTube - Flying Lotus - Massage Situation[/ame] Flying Lotus - Wombat College [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVKG1ieW8-M"]YouTube - Wombat College - Flying Lotus[/ame] Enjoy, and share your opinion!
