Flying Lotus - BIG MAMA (Exclusive Screen-Printed Blue Coloured 12” EP Vinyl + 12x12 Sticker Sheet)

Flying Lotus fans rejoice, the famed electronic auteur announces BIG MAMA, a brand new EP. It marks the long-overdue debut release from the producer – otherwise known as Steve Ellison – on his own Brainfeeder imprint: the Los Angeles based record label he founded almost two decades ago, which has gone on to release records from acclaimed artists like Thundercat, Hiatus Kaiyote, Kamasi Washington, and many more.

BIG MAMA captures Ellison in a moment of spontaneous, unbridled momentum. Densely packed with disparate sounds, rhythms, and effects, the EP delivers what he describes as “experimental, maximalist, hyperfast, electronic burst of energy”, packing seven dynamic tracks into a single continuous composition in which every bar is unique, containing no loops throughout.  “I wanted it to feel like being shot out of a cannon, just explosive, unpredictable energy,” he explains. “Like a fuckin’ computer gone awry. Like a machine that had just lost its mind.”
