goldenHymn posted the new flying lotus (here). i think i'm in love with this album. just in case you aren't caught up with things that are cool, flying lotus is bad frickin ass. i can't wait till this comes out for real.
if you're wondering why i'm on mister lotus' weenis, here you go:

soooouuuullllmates

the title is supposed to read like sooouuultrain. so you should read it like how the guy says it in the beginning of soultrain.

anyway...this was one of those albums i bought because of the 30 second samples you can listen to at a big bookstore. it has mood, nice drums, and some nice spacey jazz and psychedelic samples blended to make an album for any fan of what the kids from the 90's would call trip hop.
from what i read, 'soulmates' was not intended to be an album. elvin estrela, nobody, used this collection of beats to sell to MCs in LA to make some money.... but it sounds like an album to me.
one warning: the tracks with rappers are not the best of the bunch.



nobody - soulmates
