Flying Lotus Interview

[@jeremyorr989]

I was falling asleep to Adult Swim every night throughout my childhood. Not even realizing that I was listening to his beats. Now it's like embedded within me. I fucking love FLyLo.

[@Souleyme]

lol 😂😂 right!

[@IgorGuerrero]

Flylo is so cool! I like his message at the end "That's what life is about anyways, who gets the highest score, weird..."

[@cj0986]

?

[@rush2795]

so true. it's all about that $$$$$$

[@myutemusic5149]

@@rush2795 Orrrr the most Exp.

[@Babelfish112]

Flylo seems so chill and such a cool guy! :)

[@JasonSanders]

i was about 14 when i first saw this, and thats freaking awesome that there are really young people that enjoy good stuff like Flylo. But yeah, i always used to watch the Boondocks, and there would always be a bump that played the massage situation song. A baggage room if i recall. that was in late 2006. It wasnt until about late 2008 that i figured out who this guy was, and im sure glad i did.

[@mhaze210]

My respect for this guy is through the roof, his music was already meaningful to me...but then adding at the end of this video that "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" is one of his fav shows...definitely made even that much more awesome.

[@mhaze210]

oh also, the fact that hes from my same generation "the Nintendo generation" makes me even a bigger fan, especially since so many of his songs sound like video games (Friday Night Funk, and 1983 for example).

[@JasonSanders]

"Headphone Music" i really like that term, and his records are indeed like that.

[@aligboyakasha]

0:54 Eats a basketball

[@w4r7]

[@badcuda1]

Beautifully done interview! LOOOOOVE the "Great Job" at the end!

[@zildjiandrummer1]

[@RetroCharged]

wow, never knew he was such a fan of adult swim. Great to hear how he got into it.

[@mitch150]

Isnt that insane.. he would never have become famous, we would never be so enthralled with his amazing creations if it wernt for his mothers optimistic approach in such a little decision like that. Insane, love this guy.

[@jailbreakir]

hahahaha, i love tim and eric, i didnt realize that was his favorite though man!

[@JasonSanders]

"Auntie's Harp" track 15 from the album "los Angeles" (my favorite album)

[@zildjiandrummer1]

hes my inspiration, i had perma-grin this whole video. the best.

[@ramafia09]

this guy seems so cool just to chill with. loved that skateboard bit at the end. "oh my god!"

[@Oli4drums]

Found it today by accident. It's 'GNG BNG' off his album 'Los Angeles'

[@NerosolTV]

I FUCKIN' LOVE FLYING LOTUS!!!! He's a true GENIUS!!!

[@LaserGunsLG]

i got excited when i saw the tim and eric awesome show

[@OsoKekkou]

The entire interview was great but what he says at end of the Video . . . .Amazing.

[@xthunder2683]

my fav song at the end

[@_SaXoN_]

He loves Tim & Eric to hahaha he is awesome

[@airborn101st]

this video connects with me so much

[@modestmark]

The next legendary beat maker right there man...so ill...

[@quakes21]

That song is "Camel" off the Los Angeles cd.

[@Bandolero8000]

dude cooks up the sickest beats, serious.

[@Amphior]

what a chill fella

[@omadomadomadomad]

@KillSeattleLewis I suppose because FlyLo and Dilla are probably the two best known "leftfield hip-hop" producers out there, alongside maybe Madlib. Dilla was a big influence on FlyLo as well.

[@exzisd]

great job!

[@Steeley8]

Great Job!

[@kitaloo22]

I love this man.

[@mavis7355]

Is the song in the commercial a track on one of his albums?

[@AIRSO97]

i have the ideas but not the materials what does he use to make his music please help

[@nobodyx7]

whats the beat called that starts at 0:53 secounds?? anybody please

[@dnlcbv]

do you know the name of the tracks from the video//?

[@Babelfish112]

It's in the credits at 7:30

[@Corjai]

Corjai puts her signature smooth flow over the original track "Camel" from LA producer FLYING LOTUS, one of the many songs she has remixed from his latest albums. Subscribe to Corjai now and watch the video.

[@cewllguy]

Damn , the Coltrane/Ellison family sounds really really talented O.o

[@DJFoxxxyBear]

Los Angeles is the best instrumental album I've ever heard . Influenced me a lot .

[@cavaleer]

Tradition. How fitting that the baton is passed from one generation of genius to the next...from Coltrane to Flying Lotus.

[@goodjobjovan]

It was obvious to me he comes from a family of legends.

[@filmsmith831]

Pretty dope!

[@BustinTheRecords]

The kid at the end on the skateboard made the video complete

[@funkymonk25]

Mannn... i wanna chill with FlyLo and watch some t&e

[@coolhackerguy]

I bump FlyLo on my speakers, but I lay down and listen.

[@AlreadyEddie]

Wow! how do you know?

[@kidequinox]

this kid is truly a musical genius.

[@jackharris3690]

what is the second beat that they played

[@mexico4evah]

5:18 - 5:52 exactly how i feel party music in a performance and something that matters on your emblem

[@JasonSanders]

i just found out recently that flylo took off the "Destroy!" and "Attack!" astroid games that used to be on his website, and that makes me angry.

[@spooky_zen]

super chill

[@jimmyjubejube]

@hirdw9 i saw him live. got kind of baked before the concert. saw him before and shook his hand.

[@ahyeaman]

@hirdw9 Right? I looked up he's playing all over the world. He's living a great life i'm sure.

[@DVoTreats]

Ha ha I only just noticed the ball being thrown into Mr Ellisons Gob! 0:53

[@Masterpeewee]

its funny cause i remeber hearing his stuff on adult swim

[@kyle2point]

anyone know what he uses to make beats?

[@elmamatetas69]

holy fuck so true headphone music and club music..... once again GENIUS!!!!

[@wonderbreaddisplay]

who cares whos "better", dilla or flylo...They both tap into souls! fucking incredible

[@LaserGunsLG]

what was the first song

[@exscuseme]

@djamorpheus point taken, dilla was in fact inspiration to flylo he dug him

[@EVPK]

hes related to coltrane wow just, wow

[@prbblye]

flyo looks like such a G these days!!

[@exzisd]

I can listen to his music in 8 bit on my nintendo 3DS, but it doesn't do it justice.

[@thebigfist826]

what's the song in this video?

[@Eazysb]

just from hearing his music i figured he was on a diffrent level thanks for this mn ive allways wanted to now what mindframe this nigga was in

[@Maarttttt]

@ChromeLocust I love him.

[@VIBEZ171]

[@vague12-b3b]

Captain Murphy is dope.

[@LVXON]

[@Icon206]

Yo Flyo! I'm calling you out for MvC2 for the Dreamcast

[@TheirIAre]

Coolest cat ever

[@kishbass]

had no idea he was into adult swim. that's sick.

[@Oli4drums]

Song at 3:16?

[@djamorpheus]

@fakeplasticfool yes if you're looking at this in a relative manner, but dilla was an inspiration in his day and an inspiration now to the experimentation in hip hop. You can't say that Aristotle is better than Socrates.

[@djchuckdee12]

@sellahremy yea it is called massage situation

[@Ted_Swayinghill]

THE LUTHER @ 4:33!!!!! lolololol

[@imwkidteck]
