Flying Lotus Interview

Check this out and more @: http://www.moovmnt.com

Steven Ellison, our favorite sculptor of hazy, spacy laptop beats, is no stranger to the comforting bleeps and bloops of the Nintendo generation. He name-checks Mortal Kombat 2 as an influence and credits the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim with giving him his first big break. Here, 'FlyLo' shows off his fluid style as he switches with ease between discussing musical legends in the family (great-aunt Alice Coltrane, cousin Ravi Coltrane) and kicking ass on Street Fighter and Galaxian.

@KillSeattleLewis

I suppose because FlyLo and Dilla are probably the two best known "leftfield hip-hop" producers out there, alongside maybe Madlib. Dilla was a big influence on FlyLo as well.
