At the start of the set, the Banana Shack was only halfway filled. By the time he finished, there was a crowd cheering outside of the tent. Flying Lotus was by far the most surprising performance of the weekend. Producer Steve Ellison smiled the entire set as he was breaking down experimental, downtempo beats heightening the crowd’s energy. Flying Lotus laid down the law by playing tracks off his albums Los Angeles and Cosmogramma, but got everyone dancing and singing when he playing Tyler, The Creator’s smash hit “Goblin” and Prodigy’s “Return of the Mack”. What I liked most about Fly Lo’s set was that it was not predictable and every song was transitioned perfectly. Flying Lotus’ sixty minute masterpiece exceeded my expectations and turned out to be one of if not the best set at Sasquatch.
