Flying Lotus calls Cosmogramma a 'space opera'. In addition to the expected spacey sounds, elements from 8-bit video games, Eastern temples and unconventional hip-hop also fly by on this sound carrier. Of course, only a producer like FlyLo can act as the travel guide, by whom we are guided through samples from antique video games and seventies funk that remind us of old brawl movies. We can recover
… from all the musical daredevilism during a, for Flying Lotus', traditional hip-hop beat and that is kind of the break with which we have to do it. The twisted producer cannot wait to show his trademark: his spherical landscapes, which at the moment seem to be 'accidentally' disturbed by attacking spaceships, which are equipped with the necessary beeps and laser swords. In that sense, Cosmogramma is a true space opera and not just for hip-hop fans. Fans of electro, dance and dubstep, among others, can also enjoy this radio play. (GL)more
