In the following interview clip, one of the most exciting electronic artists on the planet, Steven Ellison aka Flying Lotus – who rocks The Phoenix Friday (September 3) – discusses the influence of his late auntie Alice Coltrane, his obsession with old school video games and how watching cartoons while lit led to a financial rewarding career as a recording artist, producer and in-demand club DJ.
Incidentally, the follow-up to his fantastic Cosmogramma album (whose title is taken from an Alice Coltrane lecture) is the seven-song Pattern+Grid World EP which is due from Warp on September 20.
