Flying Lotus fans rejoice, today the famed electronic
auteur announces BIG MAMA, a brand new EP
coming out on 6th of March. It marks the longoverdue debut release from the producer –
otherwise known as Steve Ellison – on his own
Brainfeeder imprint: the Los Angeles based record
label he founded almost two decades ago, which has
gone on to release records from acclaimed artists
like Thundercat, Hiatus Kaiyote, Kamasi Washington,
and many more.
BIG MAMA captures Ellison in a moment of
spontaneous, unbridled momentum. Densely packed
with disparate sounds, rhythms, and effects, the EP
delivers what he describes as “experimental,
maximalist, hyperfast, electronic burst of energy”,
packing seven dynamic tracks into a single
continuous composition in which every bar is unique,
containing no loops throughout.
