For Rainard Jalen:

Flying Lotus - Los Angeles (2008)

Flying Lotus is a Laptop musician who has provided a lot of music for the programme adult:swim. His music draws on a many influences including Jazz but after 2 listens I have to say that I still don't like it. Nothing in particular stands out and repetition sets in early. The beats have a hazy quality to them but there is just not enough variation and the almost total absence of vocals means that there is nothing to latch onto when listening although I really like instrumental albums this isn't for me. 4/10
