Warp records has a man from LA known to them as Steven Ellison, and to us as Flying Lotus. His sound is electronic hip hop with elements of Prefuse 73 mixed in, altogether he's a genius, so luckily for us English folk he's set to tour the UK until the end of June.

He’ll be kicking off his tour right here in London, at the ‘LightBox’ club in Vauxhall, he’ll then be off to sunny Glasgow for a battered mars bar and a bottle of buckfast.

Fly Lo will also visit Leeds University at Mine Bar, Sheffield's Tuesday Club and London again for the Brainfeeder event. Last years Brainfeeder event in Shoreditch featured Flying Lotus, Digital Mystikz, Kode9, Hudson Mohawke and Rustie. I’m sure 2009 will present equally talented artists.
