Critiques CD: Flying Lotus | Cosmogramma

If possible, even more mind melting and soul bending than FlyLo’s previous releases, Cosmogramma is indeed a message from outer space… deep space, in the neighbourhood of Sun Ra. This is transcendental music – free jazz, classical music and blips and bleeps weave in and out of each other, informing, deforming and reforming to spin out into pure bliss. Everything is fodder for Flying Lotus, who seems to effortlessly synthesize music, snatched from time and space, into something sublime. Glitchy, romantic, weird and geeky, this album is pure genius, blending the most human elements and sounds with the most technological to make sweet, sweet music.
