Flying Lotus’s Until the Quiet Comes

Add a musical mindfuck to your Monday with this new album from laptop DJ Flying Lotus.

Flying Lotus, real name Steven Ellison, started out providing bumper music for Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim before releasing his avant-garde 2006 debut 1983.

His latest, Until the Quiet Comes, draws upon psychedelic and African influences and is described as an “electronic jazz album.” “I imagined Little Nemo on a flying bed floating over the city,” Ellison told Spin. “This is the soundtrack to it.”

Thom Yorke and Erykah Badu make guest appearances on the album.
