Difficult to put Flying Lotus in just one box, since he pulls from so many influences, but FL makes some great electronic music.

🌠While perhaps not my favorite, it's the one I find myself most often returning to this year (this and Burial's 'Raver,' and perhaps Mk.gee's 'Dream Police'). It encapsulates the sublime sense of life Flying Lotus' production breathes through its musicality. The most interesting part about Fly Lo is the fact that his tracks always have a sense of autonomy- they assemble themselves. You feel them shudder with life and move through a wide range of natural-futurist landscapes dominated by other worldly signs of life and transcendental expressions of thought. Cosmagramma as a whole best encapsulates this, but considering the context of the question, I have to go with Galaxy.

Calm and chaotic; serene electronic. this made me quite emotional and I can explain why. If you want to kick back and leave your body.

👦I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little.
It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot.
People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative.
A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk.
This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
