Cosmogramma Is FlyLo On Overdrive

I had a listen to the latest effort from California based electronic music producer Flying Lotus and have come to the conclusion that just when you think music nowadays isn't spawning anything remotely era defining you might want to hold the presumptuous thought till you explore "Cosmogramma" which is simply a form of music genius disguised as Synth heavy Space dance music.

With backgrounds in Hip Hop, Disco, Electro-Funk, Techno and elements of World music infused into his creativity it is not surprising that something as interesting as this comes to life.

The album starts off with Clock Catcher and captivates from that point onwards, there is so much that can be felt as each track takes you on a aural journey beyond what might have seemed likely listening to anything other than old Pink floyd. Highlights on the album include 'Dance Of The Pseudo Nymph', 'Table Tennis' and 'Zodiac Shit' each with its own argument and presence within the mix and then there's the collaboration track '...And The World Laughs With You' featuring the vocals of the hallowed Thom Yorke, utter brilliance!
