Flying Lotus has released four studio albums—1983 (2006), Los Angeles (2008), Cosmogramma (2010), and Until the Quiet Comes (2012)—all to critical acclaim.

The Truth
Downright funky beats and insanely amazing sounds. It's not often I say something like that because beats normally are a large part of hip hop which I couldn't really stomach at all. Until now.

This is experimental enough to scare off any meager hip hop fan. Thank God. The soundscapes Flying Lotus creates in this album are amazing (a cliché, oh boy!) and it is a truly loveable album.

Each track contains incredibly diverse instrumentation and sampling and has some great cameos (specifically Thom Yorke). The saxophone samples are used extremely well and really are a great addition to the overall sound of the album.

A solid album that I'm glad to see added, now try enjoying it yourself!
