Ask Warp's Flying Lotus...

[zin]

Why is brainfeeder digital only?

that's a good one, second that!

[zin]

if we're on that one , I got one more question - is there any chance for physical release of RAS G's "Brotha From Anotha Planet" - ??? this album is tooooooo dope to be digital only. CD or vinyl, whatever

both SAmiyam "Rap Beats" and GLK "My troubled mind" had physical copies available for public to buy, I'd love to have Brotha From Anotha Planet ideally on vinyl as well

I know, please ask him about this record:
http://www.discogs.com/Flying-Lotus-Shhh/master/186299

if he had anything to do with it ? and it should be a part of his official discography or rather treated as illegal bootlegg ??????

Can you or Mary Anne Hobbes give a definitive name to this genre already? I know yall don't want to "categorize your art" and all, but this shit is getting frustrating and everyone is waiting on you two.?

why ? why do you feel the need to categorize his art? cant you just let dude live? and what exactly does mary anne hobbes have to do with anything? as an american i can honestly say she has had zero impact on my life whatsoever, and i would never look to her to name a genre for me . that just sounds gay

These are excellent, thanks a lot. Still time for any last thoughts, and we'll put the best to Mr Lotus

your music seems to move more and more away from traditional hip hop beats, and the more its moved away the more popular it has got. do you ever feel that this kind of wonky music has become 'trendy'?

Are you gonna be salty when I start screen printing Brainfeeder T's b/c yall are taking too long and I want one?

Well there kinda is one.
A t-shirt designed by Ques anyway, doesn't say Brainfeeder on it but its the closest thing you'll find so far..

Oh and ask him how much input and direction he has on the artwork and design process for his album / ep covers? Or does he leave it down to the record label?

[mawltea]

Ask him if his experimentation with DMT has had any effect on the making of his music, and if so, can he explain it?

Is "Warp's Flying Lotus" different to the old Flying Lotus?

Got my ticket for this the other day, can't wait. Obviously top on the list is meeting the man himself, but as thats not possible heres a couple questions.

1) Given the fact that Cosmogramma features collaborations with allot more musicians (suicidal tendencies bassist, ravi coltrane etc), how different was the creative process behind tracks featuring these artists?

2) How did the Thom Yorke Collaboration come about? You've been given the opportunity to open for his solo band (Atoms for Peace) on the up coming US tour, was this a result of working with him on the album or something that has been in the making for a while?

3) Who were you working with on the new Visual show accompanying the Cosmogramma live show tour? Is it controlled via midi triggers like Nosaj Thing's recent boundary pushing visual show, or was the process different?

4) How much input did you have in the design of the visual aspect?

5) You were using the monome for a while in your live show. how did you use it and why is it not a part of it any longer?

6) You said you do allot of your production work 'in the box' in ableton live, is this still the case or has this album incorporated allot more external hardware?
