Flying Lotus counts the likes of Erykah Badu, Portishead, Kode9 and Thom Yorke (who appears on Cosmogramma, and asked Ellison to provide tour support for his new band Atoms For Peace) as vocal fans, but he keeps his feet on the ground at home in Los Angeles, where the collective of artists around his Brainfeeder club/label are his most important sounding boards and collaborators. His journey to international fame has meant nothing if not the opportunity to bring Gaslamp Killer, Ras G, Nosaj Thing, Gonjasufi, Daedelus and many more to wider attention, and to also give props to the musicians who came before him, whether that be cosmic hip-hoppers Madlib and Carlos Niño or his own aunt, Alice Coltrane, who is constantly referenced in his music.
Jamie XX
The beat-maker and knob shaker from The XX. Also a prolific remix artist and producer. He was the one who delivered unto us that marvelous garage tinted remix of Florence and the Machine's version of You've Got The Love, that found it's way into many blogs and was the talk of the interwebs at one point.
he's found in Bristol tonight as the perfect warm up act to Flylo's live show to follow!
