Flying Lotus
Stephen Dalton, The National, October 2010
ONE OF THE MOST exciting breakthrough artists of 2010, Flying Lotus has been hailed as the Jimi Hendrix of his generation. Besides his own genre-blurring musical output, a futuristic fusion of sensual electronica and live instruments, he also makes films and runs his own record label. Rock and rap royalty are queuing up to work with him, from Snoop Dogg to Massive Attack. Still only 26, FlyLo's offstage alter ego Steven Ellison is clearly heading for great things.
