Part of the fun following Flying Lotus is that you never know what’s coming next. So while we all wait impatiently for his next moves, why not revisit the last time he changed the game.

“The album isn’t about the end, it’s really the beginning. It’s a celebration of the next experience. It’s the transition and the confusion.” Quite.


About You’re Dead!:

You’re Dead! is a shamanic pilgrimage into the psychedelic unknown of the infinite afterlife. A sonic, visual and metaphysical fusion of technological innovation and technical virtuosity that amounts to a transcendent, mind-expanding plasm that could only exist between our world and another.

The enduring universe of Lotus’ supporting cast has expanded and evolved to feature in order of appearance, Herbie Hancock, Kendrick Lamar, Captain Murphy, Snoop Dogg, Angel Deradoorian, Thundercat, Niki Randa, alongside mindblowing original artwork by Japanese comic book artist Shintaro Kago.


“Ellison makes the boldest, most fully engaged fusion of the hip-hop-laptop era.” – Rolling Stone

“Flying Lotus Confronts Death” – The FADER Cover Story

“Distinctly modern brew of hip-hop, footwork, and fusion that’s kinetic and vibrant.” – Pitchfork

“It doesn’t take long to find Flying Lotus’ heard. He puts it out there musically through his otherworldly blend of psych-jazz, EDM and hip-hop.” – Pitchfork

“…crisp, almost intoxicating production…” – XXL

“…an electronic opus of irreducible ambition and immersive detail.” – New York Times

“Ellison has demonstrated an uncanny ability to meld musical abstraction with hard percussion, veering from mellow to face-meltingly psychedelic in a heartbeat.” – The FADER
