there's a new flying lotus album out, and no one here is talking about it. what the fuck?
There's a new flying lotus album out, and no one here is talking about it. what the fuck?
we did talk about it and it's a 7/10 good but not his best
what is there to say? It's pretty good i guess
There's been many threads discussing it already, you're late
>7/10
Not even. I'm not even going to try and explain -- user in the last thread said it best but I'm too lazy to go look for his post.
It leaked last week, baka.
yeah the consensus here seems to range from "bad" to "ok". I'm just happy it didnt suck complete ass. Its not offensively bad imo but thats probably because I think the features are fine and that seems to be whats putting a lot of people off. It's number 9 on my 2019 list
This is a great album, fuck you all
i actually think is like an high 8/10
Fuck off stan. This is just a compilation of bullshit. Ffs post requisite has been public for four fucking years.
Yellow belly and half of the shit on here are embarrassingly bad coming from the guy who made Los Angeles.
Here it is, copied from rym
Heroes sounds like watered down flylo.
more is extremely thin for a flylo production but still enjoyable.
capillaries is unfinished.
burning down the house is ruined by an old George Clinton singing off key and offbeat.
Spontaneous is a good instrumental (that needs to be fleshed out) ruined by little dragon.
Takashi, while dull, is the most fleshed out track on the album.
Pilgrim side eye is him trying to make a computer face 2, only it strays short of working and has no idea where to go, so it just reverses the drums and stops a bar later.
All spies sounds like flylo just discovered FL studio.
Yellow belly is a god awful dead man's Tetris 2 that complements it with a horrible feature. How could flylo release this? It sounds like he's making fun of himself.
Fire is coming should've been scrapped. The only thing redeeming about it is the 808's at the end.
Inside your home would be cooler IF IT WAS LONGER AND MORE FLESHED OUT THAN A MINUTE. Goes for Andromeda too, and most "beats" on the second half.
The Shabazz Palaces feature is tragically wasted on a shaking cup sound effect.
Say something is a pointless track that should've been scrapped.
In pygmy flylo forgets how to program drums.
9 carrots is so horribly mixed it is ear grating.
FF4 is talentless lofi hiphop garbage.
Land of honey is another thin flylo production.
Last track flylo doesn't even bother to develop it so he just puts a lot of reverb on it to stretch it to 4 minutes.
because flying lotus fucking sucks lmao
and yeah I especially agree about takashi. Probably the one track besides post requisite that's an actual song and not scraps or sketches
Ff4 is worth keeping for background lofi beat music, but you can find stuff like that anywhere.
Thank you. I like your formatting more than how I remember it.
There was also this one:
>are you fucking kidding me? album of the year? there is no fucking flow to the album at all (as all his other album have), no strong / definitive sound palette like Los Angelas or Cosmogramma, and a bunch of the short 1-2 minute tracks are absolute filler, they do nothing for the album -- to top it off a majority of those tracks sound like they were produced by absolute amateurs. I wouldn't even put a bunch of those songs to my name and I make music as a hobby, this guy does it as a career and he took 5 years and this is what he fucking came up with ? Mediocre album at best, sad to see.
I don't understand how people can't hear this. It sucks because I really wanted to like this new album, but you have to accept the truth.
This guy has put out incredible beauty and some of the best ever beats. It's been five years and now he's releasing complete bullshit?
I didn't want to believe it at first either. He was pissed a while back because Kendrick took some of his best beats and didn't use them, but now I'm wondering if Kendrick passed on them because they were just bad.
This lp is embarrassingly bad.
Holy shit, the first song got DragonBall z samples in it!
MEGA BASED
unironic 10/10
its a solid 9/10, and will probably grow on me even more. i was skeptical going in cos i wasnt a huge fan of the singles but they work a lot better in the context of the album. definitely a great improvement over youre dead which was kind of disappointing.
all of these are just shitty complaints about flylo experimenting
lmao where in these 27 tracks is there any experimentation?
Looks to me he did so much "experimenting" he forgot how to actually write a song.
>where is the experimentation
>looks to me he did so much experimenting
imagine contradicting yourself in the same post . pleb faggot
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU CANCER FAGGOT. LEARN TO LISTEN, THIS IS MEANT TO ASCEND YOU TO HIGHEAR DIMENSIONS.
WHY YOU SO STIFF BRETHREN, YOU NEED TO SMOKE MORE.
Not him, but they're literally scratch tracks that he didn't flesh out.
you don't even like LA or Cosmogramma?
Quotes around a word may indicate sarcasm on the internet. I know it's your first day here and all.
I'll leave you to give Steven the deepthroat you so desperately want to give him.
PS - kill yourself
Go to bed Ellison.
no i get that it was sarcasm, i just think its funny you cant think of a legitimate complaint and you resort to sarcasm cause you know nothing about music theory
its okay though, usually small brain people like yourself dont "get" most experimental music
>an old George Clinton singing off key and offbeat.
Yikes, have you never heard P Funk, my mayonnaise friend?
>This lp is embarrassingly bad.
Your taste is embarrassingly bad.
This album, like I anticipated, is basically a hollow caricature of FlyLo. Some time after You're Dead it seemed like he got caught up in his own mythology of being 'le trippy electronic beats guy' so now it just feels contrived and like he's not covering any new ground.
