Flying Lotus at Low End Beat Invitational

[larry89]

this is type of shit i would listen to at home or during commute.. not at concerts lol.. shits dope though

[SubVersatile]

All I have to say is...... DOOOOPE!!!!!

[aaronrocks87]

WTF That crowd must be too high to move.

[walidb123]

that was fuckin incredible.

[astormoverme]

wtf with that crowd



[Sakabilli]

@ScrutinizeAndListen

dude same, like how does he do this haha

[iSelfRecords]

yo !! type in [ FLYING LOTUS FLY AWAY ] the whole [ flying roze ] mixtape goes hard !!

[LIGHTRONIX]

It bothers me that he never dances on the beat.

[bobbygnosis]

@LIGHTRONIX When you're keeping 4/4 time with your body you're going into divisions of 8, 16, 32, 64 etc,. He's perfectly on beat. You just haven't noticed yet.

Peace, love and titan mufuckin beats.

[tariqthasheik]

@LIGHTRONIX

It's because he's in a groove. When you're really into the music your playing, you don't always go exactly on time like a metronome.

[Trompunitalphapropan]

no shit... dance mothafuckaz daaance!!!

[Floydian311]

i've listened to his albums dozens of times and seen him live 3 times. Saw him again just last weekend. He's good no doubt, I'm just saying the hype he gets is ridiculous. There;s a reason the crowd is dead, his shit doesn't come off well live. Every time I've seen him its been mediocre at best. And I still dont see, no matter how many chances I give his music, what the hype is all about. It's decent but hardly groundbreaking imo

[FloydIV]

@Floydian311 lul hipster talk

[Floydian311]

@FloydIV hah ... no. A hipster would be blabbering on and on about how "forward thinking" and "adventurous" Flying Lotus is and then of course would come the obligatory Coltrane family name drop for good measure.

[FloydIV]

@Floydian311 typical hipster talk :]

[sucramnipp]

@Floydian311 this is my nominee for greatest youtube comment

[Tailzzzsama]

@Floydian311

Man Fuck You

[Taurus602]

Damn, he killed this!!!

[pimpymcjj]

Cant believe the crowd are so still. Its impossible not to move this...

[odnamrabackwards]

FlyLo till the ears bleed!!!!

[ForeverLightz]

HO-LY SHIT

[graywackeknifebdr]

Free energy has been here for a while ,But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Get the blueprints for a real Magnet motor free enegy machine at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Be a part of the energy revolution!

[blackmoon3306]

The fat dude is exile he's a dope producer he did shit with blu and fashawn check out their music

[whatsauce]

that's some pretty solid trolling nhr, though the illusion was broken when you compared hom directly to the glitch mob

[NoToTheYayo]

@whatsauce yes boss 

[nhr215]

flying lotus sucks. I've seen him live. Its just him smiling and pimping and the beats are shitty. He's like a bad glitch mob. Not original actually at all because the whole glitchy electronic thing has been done to death and done better by others...

Wow, the song is slightly off-beat and off-key! Are we supposed to applause for that?

[thedlhexp]

DIRTYYYYYYYYY

[ArtMusicSoul]

Breakcore!!!!!!!

[WeAreUSR]

it's either not my style or just not good. not danceable at all. thanks a lot rolling stone. ROLLING STONE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT UNDERGROUND MUSIC. WE CAUSE EARTH QUAKES. WE PUT BITCHES INTO LABOR.

[say12thebear]

[GraffWriter11]

[doodovf]

[Rezkai]

This dude's beastly. He raped the controller xD

[MChapmatic]

O_O.... LOVE......

[williambreaks]

how do you do the effect at 0:45 ?

[SinOfANBU]

It sounds like a low-pass filter.

[troyboyinnit]

yeah mate sounds like an LP filter or just some weird reverb :)

[shadow77890]

makes me think of a futuristic action/fighting/racing game lol love it!

[alternatethursday]

think i heard some "cold fresh air" and definitely head a sample or two from "dread bass"

he's almost too sick for his own good...

[Kinshasa9200]

1:58 is just like what hell!

[creativephoto14]

it kind of sounds like he sampled Venetian Snares a bit.

[jdtisme80]

*MJ Thriller Laugh* Too sick. FlyLo is pushing electronic music to it's limits.

[oscaru3]

Exile O_O

[bobbygnosis]

This is one THE dopest things I've ever heard from a live show.

[prikolovs]

audience

audience

they are dead

[Appleye]

haha they're all stunned haha

[prikolovs]

:D  õ jeee

[AaronConnorM]

@prikolovs they are in awe.

[mattVISTAsounds]

@prikolovs no they're just in a zombie-like trance. FlyLo is killin lol

[repents]

tight

[ketamoid]

for anyone interested in hearing this in full quality (as i was), it's on the L.A. EP 2X3, as "Secrets (Soundmurderer Refix)". i just found out and got extremely excited.

[ketamoid]

plus, it's extended, and improved

[kem1kal]

well i would have danced...

check exile and daedelus, their looks of awe. everyone knows how big flylo really is

[LukeMutz]

sick

[dyanskeez]

soooooooooooooooooooo sick!!!

[MauraKincaidMedia]

1:59.... sick

[Te4RHyP3]

best part

big up

[crayZneZZ]

fuckin SICK.

[Quaaid]

"live drums"

I love Flying Lotus, but this is high on douche baggery.

[stoogemaster7000]

wtf how so? have you seen him live?

[ElPabloho]

I think what the guy's tryin' to say is he's playing the beat live rather than it just being played off the laptop...

[onlybuilt4cubanlinks]

Fly Lo is the 1

[wingl3ss]

man that shit is rareee, fucking mental!

[bilboy32]

that crowd couldn't look more dead though... give the man some respect!

[sixthsense3]

ha ha i know man maybe they werent ready for him?? i remember one of the first gigs he did in manchester, the crowd went going nuts al night... i got him to sign my copy of reset with an ultraviolet pen aswel. He was like, wtf? lol cool guy.

[domoarigato3000]

you watching him on Monday, mint lounge?

[sixthsense3]

man id love to but i got some other shit planned that cant wait. let us know how it goes! take it easy

[nhr215]

@bilboy32 thats because his broken beats shit is boring.... not original at all and not enjoyable to listen to...

[kenrben]

@nhr215 your boring unoriginal and not enjoyable to listen to...lol Flylo is one of the most innovative musicians out there, hes the hendrix of our time. His new shit is just way left field and forward thinking so its alien to your ears. Stick to Timbaland

[Floydian311]

@kenrben the hendrix of our time?!??!?! seriously?! pfffft please give Hendrix the respect he deserves. Innovative?! he's doing shit that has been done over and over since the mid-90's (and doing it worse imo).

Nothing he has come out with is new sounds. He's essentially a wanna be aphex twin/squarepusher/J Dilla combo. He's got some solid tracks but ultimately his live show has always been a snore fest.

Flylo is for LA fan boys who believe the undeserved hype he gets.

[kenrben]

@Floydian311 Ha stop dude just stop, your embarrassing yourself...you obviously haven't REALLY listened to his shit...He's a shepherd to be sure. He has one of the most special and signature sounds since Boards Of Canada..I bet you god himself Richard D. James approves.

[Dissexional]

shit

[Te4RHyP3]

wow you gotta be fucking kidding me

That was Devastating.

[DDRpwnerer]

That was fucking win.

[pranagy]

Did soundmurderer ever release the original track?

[jreign]

Dope shit! I can't remember if I was there or not. If Exile did some thing with fake blood(got stains on me), and R.A.W.(6blocc) won... then i was there and I had a fukin blast!!!!!!

[silverstag67]

Dude. if this happened and you were there - You'd fuckin remember.

[Mun0z387]

Such a stiff crowd...

[radioheadinside]

haha.. thats what i was thinking...

[JunglyGirl]

fucking bananaz!

If I were there I would have exploded.

[dangermouse22]

okay i hate to pose the question again....but how does he get these effects...thats some ill compression....

[blueskiesjazz]

Dude, for his kinda compression, grab Rough Rider from Audio Damage (its a very nice plug and its free), and check out the preset Nuclear something-another. Then go from there. I really don't like that preset too much, but it gets the kinda breathing effect.

[dangermouse22]

thanks for the enlightenment fam

[fooballmaster71]

I live in Ohio and I'm taking a trip mainly to see this a Flying Lotus show

damn I hope it's like this

[SweepxThexLeg]

My nigga exile in the back!

hahhha

[adotwhite]

i'll be seeing this shit in person sat fa sho!

[mthrnd1]

I love Flying Lotus, but this track was done years ago by Squarepusher.

[Darkjetzer123]

whats the name of the Squarepusher track?

[FlappyDraws]

this track is by soundmurderer

[sja0925]

whats he using for the drum sounds? is it a drum machine or a trigger for his laptop?

[mypunken]

trigger

[thesampler999]

no its the roland SP-404 sampler

[Mun0z387]

nah its the M-Audio Trigger Finger (not sarcastic) for live shows. he uses that and his "secret software"

[kingspam1]

lotus use's ableton

[Mun0z387]

yeah he uses that live but does he use that in the studio? never decided

[Jinkins439]

and Reason

[AmericanEric]

A variation of this beat can be heard on the recently-released "L.A. EP 2 X 3."

It's "Secrets (Soundmurderer Refix)"

[SULLYEEE475]

"live drums, live drums ya'll" - what a chode

[adotwhite]

lol. he had to say it just in case stupid ppl in the crowd thought it was some pre recorded sample shit!

[abelizable]

that's dj exile .. one of the best beat makes out there

[figsmavs]

haha

[verbalmasturbator]

be some cool shit to smoke a blunt with him and just chill, do some beats and shit right there..

[Tableturn]

shit where? in the toilet i hope, and not in your pants.....

[Suck6on9this]

DefiantKinetics, you say what Im thinking son, they just don;t feel it like we do! Fuckin BooYah!

[williamlbro]

nice holmes. flylo is sweet! AHHH!

[badnoozbear]

Hmm I think FLY LO is fucking dope... Straight up, but I do understand what you are saying . It all boils down to taste, Fly LO Blends neo soul, psychedelic, hip hop dub step. But forget, names of genres, his sound is uniquely his own. You can tell this sound is flying Lotus, he is not a DIlla copycat, although he is like a space age dilla. Yes, sure everyone has a right to opinion. But answer me, what have you fucking done for music? to validate your criticism.

[00YURIN00]

" most of fly's shit is boring and over hyped. "

u just plain dumb.

Fly Lo has the most innovating sound in his tracks! Shit ive never heard and never was thinking of hearing. I must agree with u for this one, that is: i like his own tracks a lot more. But still.. u just plain dumb.

[buckybuxfoo]

any1 who thinks he did this live is dumb. he mostly layering samples on top of a programmed beat, and at times stutters the beat itself.

if it wasnt for warp, none of you would give a shit. most of fly's shit is boring and over hyped. + most of yall are too scared to hear some hyped shit, you just wanna bob ur head and think you in the know. waaay too much hype dog. yall aint in the know.. please vote -7 thumbs on this .. dick riders do dat type of shit

[damnelderly]

well you jus know fuckin everything dont you captain cool?

[focuzzfocuzz]

it is wack...even a monkey can do this

[medin107]

that'd be the most talented monkey ever. this beat's ill!!

[Suck6on9this]

I don't think so. You don't make music do you lad! Ha ha!

[DefiantKinetics]

It appears the crowd are super-gluded to the floor. Whats the matter, not the "Hip Hop" set you were expecting from Mr Lotus? What a shit crowd of boring losers. Get some fecking rhythm and GO MENTAL!

[figsmavs]

i would love to have this on mp3 or cd or somethin

[MYSTIK562]

download realplayer and they shuld give u this thing thats allows u to download this in mp3 format

[CHIHUAHUAconda]

low end beat invitational 9 is tonight in los angeles!! i'm so jealous of anyone who goes.

flylo won't be there but ras g, nobody, and gaslampkiller should tear it up.

[Trevorweaver]

Wow, That was great. Why the hell was nobody dancing?

[MBArkestra]

What does he use to make music? This electronic stuff is a mystery to me. Is he just hitting a sampler and running the sounds through effects racks I guess?

[Timmytoga]

is that daedelus rockin out to this in the background

[TheInfinityGhost]

i think not one of us could replicate the offbeat drumming (or even if it was linear drumming) that he produced. And besides.....he's signed to WARP...so the leftfield drum'n'bass was kind of expected....but yet cool

[zoopy333]

this guy really isn't that good

[TheInfinityGhost]

nikka............"Los Angeles"???

[imsothemanXD]

I bet a handfull of those people didnt know what they were in for when they went to his show... they thought everythign was gonna be like robertaflack and ended up listening to drum and bass... haha gotta love it!!! teach the masses, biggup, rah rah!!

[shortydotnet]

i didnt know flying lotus could kick it drum n bass style! i guess its another reason to love him lol

[Asphalthabitat]

fucking genious.

[ProzAndConzMovement]

This shit is wack different dosent always mean good!!!

[mtehbob]

Stick to Soulja Boy then.

[Crimson1st]

Its pretty badass That DJ Exile is there. 2 amazing artist

[blipp]

Saw him at dour last weekend, the guy's amazing!

[MyDiamondStarCar]

this is sick, reminds me of apparat's live performances

[pinky11]

FLYLO IS THE SHIT!

[AmericanEric]

Five months later and I still occasionally get this stuck in my head.

[TANSD]

For some reason people in America seem almost shy or too uptight to get loose to music like this. I'm up in Canada, when we get shit like this playing we'll tear it up equally as hard as people in the U.K.

[pinky11]

yeah the hip hop community is too uptight now, theyre scared to show some hype, and instead they stand with hands in their pockets. L.A. needs to step theyre game up and stop trying to be superstars!

[ijaxi]

no shit ! I hear ya !!!

[garoad]

The only reasonable explanation to why the crowd is just SITTING THERE and not moving.. has to be that Fly Lo put them all to shock with that shit

[janalyn629]

was Thavius Beck not doing this in 2004??

copy cats will get you no where.

[ohmydayzy]

There were people being cunts way before you but you still insist on being one.

[slliMDan]

All you up tight American dudes in the crowd. Flying Lotus gets the respect of people at least moving their feet in the U.K, True Genius on the new Warp release!

[Th3R3dFly]

anyone have ideas on software?

[medusiform]

he uses ableton live. it's pretty easy to set up midi triggers to do live drum tricks like he's doing in the intro.

[BEATADDICT12]

easy to recreate...not easy to create

[archdukezeb]

Yeah but he is by far not the first people to do the style he is doing in this video at least. Not to say he doesn't have original stuff but seriously you can go look up videos of 16 year olds chopping dnb shit like this with a wiimote.
