On June 10, Flying Lotus will release Los Angeles, his second album and highly anticipated debut for Warp Records. "Los Angeles is a special place to me for obvious reasons, but for the majority of my life, I hated living here," he says in a press release. "I only realized that by leaving and being able to check out new places, new vibes, and to chill with different folks." Flying Lotus doesn't feature many guests on Los Angeles -- the best known vocalist, relatively speaking, is Daedelus' longtime collaborator and wife Laura Darlington. "With my projects, I try to have a visual narrative happening. I like the idea of my albums being movies," he says. Since debuting in 2006 with 1983, Flying Lotus has suffered from rampant bootlegging. He recently posted an item on his MySpace blog titled "A humble request": Today, I was shocked an amazed to get a comment from a ''friend'' saying... So, in honor of Flying Lotus' humble request, I'm not going to post Los Angeles on this site. I will, however, post its track listing below.
