Evan Voytas is living in a dreamworld, his soft voice emanating like sunlight through cirrous clouds, his guitar gleaming light and sweet through the slightly off stuttering of his beats. His solo jams are the chilled out compatriots to his day job, playing in Flying Lotus' live band, the result of a quasi-Into the Wild freakout that inspired him to move from Harlem (where he was "immersed in various religious texts and 70's new age paperbacks") to the deepest corners of desert. He also grew a beard. That shit probably alters your outlook, which comes through in "I Took a Trip on a Plane"—hopes and aspirations manifested in a bright, gentle lullaby, delicate but alive.
