Flying Lotus - Recoiled

[dbeckster]

That fuzzy zipping sound he uses at 4:45.. anybody else think it could be a sample of like a motorcycle or an engine of some sort? haha

[sewer300]

I'm not sure why people hate on the intro. FlyLo takes you on a journey. I won't listen to it unless I'm able to listen to entire thing.

[LOGIC42369]

i'm in the awesome part of youtube again

[Anon1696]

Ah yes, this is German Haircut and Recoiled, respectively.

[SodaNSoap]

jazzy

[stoneybones22]

this song is so tight butthole

[TheSweetestSymphony]

This is German Haircut, just so everyone knows

[MrApawlik]

I love Flying Lotus' music. But sometimes the massive use of percussion elements gets a bit to much for me.

[MoneyBagsMartinez]

This song just summed up a whole Indiana Jones movie

[themanontheland]

@MoneyBagsMartinez

Haha! Spot on. Someone needs to make a fanvideo with indiana jones footage to this track.

[Roq999]

Amazing use of dissonance.

[mrsaganscosmos]

his music all seems to have this great shimmer to it. its weird

[XAdiehSugarlessX]

> _ > WHY THE FLARG IS UFFIE's POP THE GLOCK IN THE FRUITIN SUGGESTED BOX ? ....keh fuckin up you tube....fuckin up ..... > _> *shakes head*

[akniggaable]

=]

[qzOzp]

im sitting right next to a guy who thinks flylo is gay. tell him something!

[TheHinder105]

@qzOzp fuck that bitch. tell him to get on his knees then skull fuck him.

[lookyesh]

@qzOzp can we perform an ancient ritual, recycle his life and give it to someone more useful?

[venus1569]

@qzOzp there is NOTHING gay about good music... and this is GREAT music!! *on repeat*

[stoneybones22]

This song is cosmic beyond my own consciousness

[unifiedpeace]

WHAT THE HOLY BALLS OM MANI PADME HUM HARE KRISHNA SWAG. THIS IS SOME NEXT LEVEL SHIT

[erbadub]

PROGRESS

[Craigpiff]

Im glad every one dosnt know about this cuz it keeps it where it needs to be. Some people just dont deserve to know about good music!

[Jakuzadoc93]

@Craigpiff Say What?! I normally don't really react to comments on YouTube-Videos and stuff, but Dude: ''Some people just dont deserve to know about good music'' ?

I see what you mean, but imagine THIS was actually better known, maybe even played on the radio sometimes? Those dumb and ignorant people would probably even try to figure out the artist and so they would get to know music, that people like you and me love, maybe they'd realize how shitty most of the mainstream music really is! :)

[wouldbekilla]

@Craigpiff everyone has a right to god music even though it as an awesome feeling when you introduce someone to flylo and watch their brain explode.

[wouldbekilla]

@wouldbekilla *is

[lalocejas83]

@Craigpiff ... the reason why we have so many ignorant and easily lead automatons out there is because many haven't been exposed to intelligent forms of expression.. keeping avant-garde music like flying lotus hidden is in the long run more detrimental to our collective growth as people.

[aoakampfer]

@Craigpiff

So you think you should decide how many people are able to enjoy the artists music?  For what? To satisfy your hipster urges?

[zoo1619]

@aoakampfer (Obviously not him but...) I think at the moment it's better for us as humans to keep our mouth shut, and enjoy this music. It's not worth the risk of having music like this heard by ears that didn't work to get to listen to this, we might see comments like "THUMBS UP IF LOLZORATOR BROUGHT YOU HERE."

[Craigpiff]

Just ridiculous. Im kinda glad everyone isnt on it so it dosnt get ruined.

[DKproductions2]

this is progressive.



[iwazused]

4:45

[ITSjustanothercommen]

Its jazz with high enough bass, its good rave music. I like technical death metal, but this is pretty fluent and technically timed. Not picasso, Just another musician.

[hhall21]

This song made me throw up. #knar

[xxXPinstripeKissXx]

for me it was: always loving gooooooooood hip hop from the get-go

[br00talKidHxC]

for me

I like lots of music, this is good music

[MoveUrAss]

thumbs up if you think 1:55 to 5:30 sounds like porno music

[freshfaceex3]

@MoveUrAss come on man, don't ruin it

[MoveUrAss]

@freshfaceex3 Ruin it? I'm just drawing a connection between good music and great video entertainment. Why do you think i like the song so much :)

[rainslayer]

he did it again.....addicted....

[RealRapAttack]

Started off on mainstream rap(i.e. lil wayne, jay-z, etc.)

Got bored with it

Started listening to rock/alternative

Got bored with it

Found MF DOOM by mistake(was searching for Dr. DOOM lol)

Rekindled my love for hiphop

Started to siphon through underground artists and producers(i.e. Jay Elect, Blu)

Found JayDee, Madlib, Dangermouse, Nujabes, and now Flying Lotus :)

[bamfan151]

@RealRapAttack started at the bottom, ended at the top. congrats brotha

[bgsuswagger]

@RealRapAttack I appreciate this b/c some ppl like to act like they've been listening to underground since they were born. Most ppl start off mainstream. I did Ludacris => 50 Cent => Kanye West => Mos Def, Flylo, Nosaj Thing, Danger Mouse, Cee-Lo Green. I'm still a huge Kanye fan though.

[LOGIC42369]

@bgsuswagger hmm i kind of did too... eminem, 50, jay z, linkin park, etc... just kinda took off from there into gangster rap like bone thugs and do or die, then twista but now i do nothing but underground for the last 6 years haha

[captainspaulding4010]

@RealRapAttack i was the same. and never going back.

[STBinFL]

@alexknaz

for me it was this:

started getting into mainstream rap/hip hop

got sick of rappers (esp. new ones)

looked more into hardstyle/hard trance and other EDM sub-genres,fell in love with it

found the boondocks hip hop docktrine mixtapes vol. 1 and 2,

started making hardstyle in FL Studio

found NegroSaki, adult swim, Nujabes, Flying Lotus, J Dilla, Madlib, etc.,fell more in love with that because it was pure goodness ;)

started making beats

[xenphobiax]

Im fuckin blowed nd love flylo, this shit makes me trip Nd feel badass! XD

flylo's badass <3

[simon12332]

...Oh...Oh my...

[XxNuKE420xX]

I want to listen to this when Im on Acid

[pointlesswoodentoy]

And on the 8th day, god created Flying Lotus to blow the fuck out of every established convention of mainstream music.

[LIGHTRONIX]

yo these guys have a really good drummer

[StereoIWantItAll]

i wish i could get as high as flying lotus

[LuisDivision]

flying lotus rock my world

[adamgergich96]

i was always into rock, alternative, indie, electronic.. hated hip hop.. still do, but shit like flylo i love

[KamKomissioner]

@adamgergich96 let me guess.."because all hip-hop is about it sex drug cars and money" the same old skit? get to know something before you judge it.

[krusher181]

THIS IS FUCKING SLAMMIN

[3521soda]

hahahahha whats with people blowing loads to music nowadays....

[BlackEyeDog012]

Does anybody else hear samples from a super mario video game?

maybe super mario rpg? snares sound like his punches hitting

[CrawfordKieran]

@BlackEyeDog012

ok it has to be because on kill your co-workers i heard a super mario jump sound at the end.

so maybe?

[SagelHD]

Umm definitely German Haircut in the beginning. Don't be misleading next time.

[dlodon]

Does anyone here what i hear from 4:42 the way it switches up into those chords omg!!! lol!! Flylo is too much!!

[nicotinelolipop]

To be honest I really dislike rap and r&b but I seriously love this shit!

[jointhemodernworld]

::

[tinythinker]

I started by exploring jazz, finding the Miles Davis album "In a Silent Way", having a friend suggest I listen to samples of his follow-up album "Bitches Brew", and then seeing that people who bought that album also looked at "Cosmogramma" by someone called Flying Lotus. This was all in the last few hours. Now I guess I'll have to look up some of these other referenced artists when I get some time.

[djschoolcraftmusic]

I just traveled to so many different places in five minutes and thirty seconds

[happyjack585]

alasfdfakjsal' avsfc'favn;flKJDMCNjklsklfsf

thats a compliment

[tjhott99]

i like this dude forreal. this one tho for some reason i was bored, unti 1:56 into the song, then my ears opened. i culd sample this and kill it.

[iansquared3]

@tjhott99 yeah, the uploader screwed up somehow. The beginning of this video is actually another song by flying lotus called "german haircut." Recoiled starts at 1:56 like you said. SICK song

[Deekstercph]

Did he sample Barry White in this song?

Sounds like the vice goes "Sweetness is my weakness"

[hellothorns]

i don't understand what this is doing to my brain. but it feels good.

[MissMasterMissle]

i'm sure the people who clicked the "unlike" button didn't even listen past the first 30 seconds...this song is epic

[bradioactive]

ok, i apologize for my vulgarity, but this song makes me want to have sex in a sports car going 120 down I-75 at 3 in the morning, and then when we stop I just have the most epic orgasm ever!!! (the orgasm = is what 4:45 sounds like)

[sketchead2]

stuff reminds me of something from Animal Collective

[fuentcent]

Amen.

[staterxs]

man if only freelancer 2 wasn't canceled, if they added this song on the game ...... at ease :)

[Devinopps]

WHO IS STOKED AS SHEE-IT TO SEE THIS BEAT GOD/ALIEN AT SASQUATCH!!!??

WwoooooWWOOOOHHHOoooowhWOhwohw­ohooooooooooooo

[nicenice40]

@alexknaz you a fucking SPOT on. of course that in mind with dimlite, eskmo, gold panda, and sooo sooo sooooooo many others.

[nicenice40]

@alexknaz you a fucking SPOT on.

[Audioholika]

this is exactly the way how it has been for me..

[Naytinfinity]

Everything on this album is so run together on Youtube. like all the songs have different lengths then the actual length. like this is not only recoiled but german haircut.wtf

[calixto1976]

Maybe it's genius future jazz or maybe it's a spastic locked in a room full of vintage synths and expensive software. The final effect is the same, mind altering.

[rythmek]

hip hop picasso

[ITSjustanothercommen]

@rythmek Nope, Just understanding jazz has the pivot point of timing, the escape. Jazz the best when baked. Time disappears, it perfect.

[edeneye808]

The beginning of the video is actually german haircut. A lot of bootleg versions that pot heads rip for free have the tracks combined though. If you're going to steal a song and post it on the web at least have the decency to get the titles right.

[jellyjellly]

@edeneye808 hey man you can shut the fuck up smoking weed has nothing to do with knowing every flylo song start to finish, so you can suck a big fat dick and get the fuck off of youtube

[speakvisual]

The track length on the album is 3:36, can anyone tell me where this version is from?

[lipstick4]

@speakvisual it's right beneath the like button ;)

[reverseosmosis187]

@speakvisual up until like 1:55 is actually German Haircut. the rest is Recoiled.

[vstedman]

@speakvisual My album has 5:34

[MONSTERQNUG]

Jazz

[laur44n]

I don't understand the dislikes this has right now. This is pure genius.

[alexknaz]

How many people here:

Started with hip hop

Got tired of retarded mcs

Fell in love with the beats

Found madlib dilla pete rock

Found flylo

kept on going, bonobo, shlohmo, after 1, prefuse 73, Samiyam, etc...?

[other6people]

@alexknaz I can picture an mc on galaxy in janaki it would be perfect

[betawicupu]

@alexknaz Im one of those people.

[TheMOUFLESS]

@alexknaz I started at NegroSaki.

He's Pretty ILL too

[alexknaz]

@TheMOUFLESS No doubt !

[dlodon]

@alexknaz You hit my whole transition in one haha!!! Thats exactly where i started now im somewhere around Afta-1 Lotus and Bonobo lol!

[ickerish]

@alexknaz.. nujabes etc.. also, my taste started going more.... alien, universe like... im not sure what happened but i dont regret any bit of it

[steviemccallum]

@alexknaz - thats so right its fuckin scary...

[KillingBoxOffical]

@alexknaz we need more people like you, hip hop now a days sucks, flylo rocks

[dave16reb]

@alexknaz backwards order tow aht u just said

[glowingcity]

@alexknaz I'm with u.....I found the truth a while ago....Dilla left the sacred scrolls went he went on to the next life..

[Lachronic808]

@alexknaz bro..

you just straight explained my life story for the past 6 months..

what music should I look up next?

lol. jk

[MrMister296]

@alexknaz holy shit you just blew my mind

[acpspiffer]

@alexknaz that's exactly how i got here. :)

[TheLastBaron16]

@alexknaz Strangley enough I got here though artists like Four Tet, Bonobo, Pantha du Prince etc. so it's almost the opposite apart from the fact i'm not a huge fan of hip-hip :P

[iansquared3]

@TheLastBaron16 FOUR TET IS AMAZING

[TheLastBaron16]

@iansquared3 Amen to that

[Nutterbutterz95]

@alexknaz And here I was thinking that I took an original path.

[iansquared3]

@alexknaz exactly! I got into MF doom's "special herbs" and then the miracle of youtube's related videos brought me to "massage situation." It was love at first sound

[MrHaywoodGiblomi]

@alexknaz holy shit man, I started the exact same way!

[AlexKalicinski]

@alexknaz JAZZLIBERATORZ



[hellothorns]

@alexknaz i dont even know what any of that means. :/

[LemonMerigueTie]

@alexknaz for me it was:

started with mainstream hip hop/rap

got sick of rappers

picked up hardcore and metal

overplayed everything good

watched adult swim

figured out there was more to hip hop

found flying lotus

achieved eternal happiness

i gotta check out those artists though, im new :D

[187RaiserHell]

@LemonMerigueTie YES!!!! just like me

[rickrolledist]

@LemonMerigueTie holy shit thats my story

[xVoodeedoox]

@LemonMerigueTie for me:

never listened to music. it pissed me off and made me feel like my brain was melting.

my mum introduced me to quality club music of the 90s, got hooked.

discovered dj shadow through a related video on youtube. world changed.

i began digging deep and still do to this day. [amon tobin, flying lotus, lusine, afx, shittone of unheard-of artists, etc]

music took over my life and have then began making my own music and hope to do so til i die.

[vtech8]

@LemonMerigueTie this^^ except replace metal with electronic/underground rap thats pretty much it lol

[k1011]

@LemonMerigueTie bbbbbbbb....blockhead

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

@LemonMerigueTie Curren$y Tech N9ne and Ratatat is what brings me joy and massive attack and flylo

[seabass2008man]

@LemonMerigueTie You should check out the song paradise backyard jam by lone

[crimes2]

@LemonMerigueTie Listen to Nickatina if you wanna start listenin to hip hop.

Cunning Linguist, KRS, Rakim, Eric B, C.L.Smooth, Pete Rock. n Checc out some of my music for some dope shiet too

[eggfrito]

@alexknaz totally agree man..

[10lettername]

@alexknaz

pretty damn right

I thought all lyricists were retards, so I just listened to good beats

my first beat love was Rjd2, followed by Nujabes

eventually i started easing back into lyrics, but only good artists

DOOM, People Under the Stairs, Five Deez, Blue Scholars. Basically underground good shit.

rarely do you get a god-like beat, like fly lo's shit, and have shitty lyrics.

[WHOTHAFUCK]

@alexknaz

so true, brother!

[mshartz5]

@alexknaz

Heh. Mine actually went deltron, kid koala

to Bonobo, prefuse, Air, and other downtempos to

Nujabes, flylo, etc.

[lovedubpt]

@alexknaz HOw many peope....

Get 254 Thumbs up cause they threw down a righteous comment ;) ?

[tripnotize27]

@alexknaz there are some really good mcs out there like people under the stairs, atmosphere, and delthafunkyhomosapien that will always keep me listening, but i can understand where you're coming from, and i'm glad more people are learning to understand and appreciate the instrumental aspect of beats in music a lot more, which is probably due to and accounts for it's ridiculous progression in recent history. cool shit

[dreamoftheiris]

@alexknaz For me it was Prefuse 73 then the rest

[303lownoise]

@alexknaz odd, you just named all my favorite artist's.

[ramafia09]

@alexknaz that was really creepy....

[jamafrican657]

@alexknaz hahahaha Such a similiar sequence to me (you probably speak for a lot of people there dude), I started finding the like of samiyam through Hyperdub which I found through burial which I found through Dubstep.

[JahmBProducts]

@alexknaz Dude...that is exactly my life story...



[bubbadude117]

@alexknaz LoL holy shit brah thats what I've been doin for the past like 2 years

[selfwiseguy]

@alexknaz absolutely and I will be checking for some names I don't recognize, bonobo, shlohmo, after 1. Prefuse I know, and I really like the Savath & Savalas stuff.

[PointAndLaughLaFlare]

@alexknaz I STARTED SEARCHn MUSIC THAT WAS ON ADULT SWIM BUMPS.

[bootr0s]

@alexknaz The Books pwn all

[1CitizenSnips1]

@alexknaz While that is currently happening, i found this through Luke Vibert's and Burial's related videos.

[darrensymes]

@alexknaz stalker!

[Naytinfinity]

if you've ever seen south park the internet episode where they find randy passed out with cum all over the room and the computer. that is what i'm like after hearing this song

[furvert101]

@Naytinfinity omg what episode was that?!

[Naytinfinity]

@furvert101 it's called Over-Logging. its a great episode.=)

[furvert101]

@Naytinfinity nice... must be a newer one cause i dont remember it if its not... but then again, there are several episodes i have seen only once, but in the current season ive missed alot... thank god for southparkstudios lol!

[Naytinfinity]

@furvert101 yeah. its fairly new. like a couple seasons ago

[Jebrone]

@Naytinfinity i dont understand, the beats dont flow together :( and im a huge dance music fanatic

[23torme]

@Jebrone

that is more or less the whole point... this isn't for dance fans, keep your shit!

[23torme]

@Jebrone

that is more or less the whole point... you don't get it and I am glad, this isn't for dance fans. keep your shit!

[Jebrone]

@23torme But this was in the Dance section at a music store I once went to. its the only reason why I searched it up. But never the less Im still pointing out my criticism towards this "Music". It just sounds like a bunch of ambient noises put on a sound track. They don't blend together they're just they're own noises. It has no organization to the beats and just sounds distorted. Maybe if there was a little organization in the sounds it would have great quality.

[alexknaz]

@Jebrone

Its because you can't understand synkop and have a bad sence of rythm, your welcome

[djschoolcraftmusic]

@Jebrone That's probably because you were too impatient to listen to it long enough to hear when the beat actually does comes in?

[OrphanedBlood]

High as hell....holy christ

[willbell22]

you have got to be dumb as fuck to give this song a thumbs down! Give that a thumbs up!

[iSelfRecords]

yo !! type in [ FLYING LOTUS THEY TALKING ] IT GOES HARD !!

[blawngh]

Fly lo isnt afraid of change, thats why hes such a badass

[shammyshity]

The first part of this song is german haircut. Two totally different songs

[shammyshity]

The first part of this song is definetly german haricut. Two different songs

[eatright909]

i dont know if its possible or true

but music does get you high ;D

[03lucky]

@eatright909 yeh if you add a bunch of weed to it ;)

[iLikeToSoar]

the offbeat at the beginning makes the rest of the song even [sic]--er

and the second half gives the offbeat at the beginning so much significance

[bl0rch]

epic track

[waitingformusic]

Serious work.

The bass is like some black hole shit!

[crazeegirl4life]

that took me on a JOURNEY!!!! the switch at 1:55 literally made me jump lol. Thats wat i LOVE about this guy. His music can be sooo unpredictable, yet it still works! Organised musical chaos at its best!..

[other6people]

dope with subs
