“The album isn’t about the end,” Flying Lotus says of his new record You’re Dead (Warp, October 7th). “It’s really the beginning. It’s a celebration of the next experience. It’s the transition and the confusion. It’s not ‘hey you’re dead.’ It’s ‘hey you’re dead!’”
Assisting the producer with his astral projections this time around is a stacked guest list, including Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Thundercat, Angel Deradoorian, Herbie Hancock, Niki Randa and FlyLo’s mic-checking alter ego Captain Murphy.
