Flying Lotus has announced a new EP, Big Mama. The seven-song effort arrives on March 6, marking his first release on his own label, Brainfeeder. It’ll be accompanied by a short film. Check out a teaser for it below.
Flying Lotus made Big Mama in New Zealand while working on his debut film, Ash, which premieres March 21. “I wanted it to feel like being shot out of a cannon, just explosive, unpredictable energy,” he explained. “Like a fuckin’ computer gone awry. Like a machine that had just lost its mind…”
“I wanted it to be free and feel alive,” he continued. “I think that was a big intention of mine with this record, just to think about it more like sound design and make something that felt unpredictable and maximal. As we get into a place where tracks are becoming more “perfect” and things are becoming more sterile, I want to try to keep it interesting and try to keep bringing in things that are uniquely human to electronic music, which is, you know, becoming harder I guess.”
