I'm still down with seeing him live. I just didn't like Cosmogramma, and don't understand the hype behind it. I can't remember where or when, but I believe I've read/heard a couple people say he puts on a great show. I was excited to see him on the lineup.

One of the things I really love about Pitchfork is their 5-10-15-20 column; it's fascinating. I've always kind of thought that something similar would make for a pretty interesting thread around here.

They have a couple of really well-written columns, actually. Their 'Poptimist' and 'Why We Dr. Garbanzoht' articles are very insightful. It's a shame that the bulk of their reviews are douchey knee-jerk reactions.

5-10-15-20 was an inspired idea, and the Poptimist columns can be fascinating. Every now and then they have a good feature, too, like the history of wee one that got me into twee four or five years ago.

Ok so 1983 and Los Angeles are MUCH better albums than Cosmogramma. Still not sure if I would listen to them on a consistent basis, but they at least have some enjoyable moments.

If any fans of Flying Lotus live in the LA area I'd recommend checking out Low End Theory. It's a club that opens every Wednesday and really cool DJ's play there. Flying Lotus started out there. I've never been there but my friends have and I've seen the performers in other locations. You can find some serious talent there.

Consequence of Sound, on point as usual:


Quote:
Let’s think of this set in terms of stocks and bonds. Skipping The Flaming Lips for Flying Lotus is obviously a high risk investment. But every now and again on Wall Street, sheer dumb luck makes Franklins fall from the sky, and your payout becomes exponentially larger than what you invested to begin with, making your initial investment worth the risk. The 2,500 people that were either brave or drunk enough to make this gamble came out of Flying Lotus’ set feeling like masters of stocks and bond; it was truly one of the greatest risks they ever took.

Even Steven Ellingson (Flying Lotus) himself was surprised to see so many people in the crowd, remarking “I made the two and a half, three hour drive here thinking the whole time no one would show up. But you did! And I thank you from the bottom of my heart for it.” And it was with that grateful sentiment that FlyLo started his set, which was an hour of pure electronic/hip-hop bliss. Ellingson was literally smiling the entire time, and the wheat had been separated from the chaff, if you will, leaving only the truest of true fans to party with Flying Lotus, creating an even more legitimate environment.

As a result of FlyLo’s appreciation and the crowd’s enthusiasm, he rolled out a set that will go down in history as one of his most spectacular. Incorporating Radiohead, Lil’ Wayne, and dozens of other artists in with his own infectious beats sent chills down the spines of those watching. The Banana Shack nearly toppled over (Dr. Garbanzouratively, of course) when he mixed the sheer grit of Tyler, The Creator’s “Yonkers” on top of one of his most bass-heavy tracks, “Melt!”. Word spread quickly and a major topic of conversation between festival-goers for the rest of the weekend was about how bummed they were that they went with The Flaming Lips (all due respect to Mr. Coyne and Mr. Drozd) over Flying Lotus. -Winston Robbins
