Video: Flying Lotus, “Putty Boy Strut”

September 19, 2012


After unveiling a short film he conceived as a companion piece to his Until The Quiet Comes LP, LA beatsmith Flying Lotus is back with a video for lead single "Pretty Boy Strut," which weaves pitched-up vocal sounds through a patchwork of jagged rhythms and syncopated bass bounce. This one's a trippy animation from Brighton-based artist Cyriak, who's dreamed up a disturbing, survival-of-the-fittest narrative involving robots that gobble up other robots, only to be chomped down by bigger robots in turn. Watch as the whole situation spirals completely out of control, and grab a copy of the record when it drops from Warp on October 2nd.
