Flying Lotus
Biography
Great nephew of Alice Coltrane, Flying Lotus (who was born Steven Ellison) made beats for Adult Swim before releasing his debut full-length, 1983, which resembled the work of fellow avant-garde producers Madlib, J Dilla, and Ammoncontact, on Plug Research in 2006. Following the six-song Reset EP, his second full-length, Los Angeles, was released in 2008. ~ Marisa Brown, All Music Guide
Selected Discography
I'm not sure why he was compared to Madlib. They're nothing alike. I've heard that he's releasing a new album next year (possibly a dubstep album??), and I can't help but wait for it.

I heard about Flying Lotus in an article about the Meltdown shows that Massive Attack arranged and later found out that some of the Adult Swim Background songs I had been liking were made by him. He is now in my Top Ten of artists and I can't wait for more from him.

Flying Lotus is on the rise! Have seen him on a few occassions and he always delivers with his neck-breakin g beats!

his work is amazing...na y s a y e r s are usually the people who don't have the ability to make music themselves, or have spent their lives hiding away in small holes wondering why their music never took off.

probably shouldn't mention that he's related to trane.. makes it seem like it might not suck, which is misleading.
