“When I signed to Warp I saw it as a chance to end a lot of speculation about my sound, I didn't want cats to think I just did one thing, or one style. The EP was a chance to start over with a new perspective and vision…. That's why I called it Reset...”

Los Angeles is a sunny land with a shadowy side. Sunshine soul music and hazy psychedelia are the more well-known musical exports, but if you peer into the city’s darker corners it’s not hard to find their skewed musical cousins. This is the place Flying Lotus inhabits, turning out his electric brand of shadowy funk. Signed a few short months ago, his Warp debut, Reset is the perfect opportunity for Lotus to stretch out and give a small taste of his wide-ranging talent. From the skeletal electro of ‘Dance Floor Stalker’, which brings to mind a more sinister Egyptian Lover, to the subterranean soul knocker ‘Tea Leaf Dancers’ and the bass workout of ‘Spicy Sammich’ no stone is left unturned.
