other · 2026-05-05

On November 2, 2017, Warp Records released 'Post Requisite', a new single by Flying Lotus (Steven Ellison, b. 1983, Los Angeles), ahead of his upcoming album. The music video, directed by Canadian artist Winston Hacking, is a two-minute splatter-horror reinterpretation of Dadaist collages by Hannah Höch and Raoul Hausmann, featuring centipedes and sexual references. It contrasts with the track's soft beats and bass lines. Flying Lotus, a producer signed to Warp Records and founder of Brainfeeder, had recently completed his directorial debut, the feature film 'Kuso', in January 2017. This is his first release since the 2014 album 'You're Dead!'.
