YASUKE OST by Flying Lotus LP (colour vinyl)
Limited edition red colour vinyl.
OBI strip.
Flying Lotus uses japanese folk inspirations for this anime soundtrack.
A reverent but not doctrinaire take on all the formative anime and cartoon soundtracks that Lotus grew up on (and soundtracks of all stripes, Ghost Dog and Tarantino being obvious touchstones, we're sure that "Fighting Without Honor"'s title is an intentional callsign to the most memorable piece from the Kill Bill v1 soundtrack), a nice corrective for all those let down by the last 'real' Flying Lotus album, arguably the most straightforward hip hop release Lotus has put out since Los Angeles, and basically the alternate universe good version of those RZA Afro Samurai soundtracks.
