Drop Dead Beats

By Jovany Leon

The man whose music appears in commercial bumps for Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim is releasing his fifth studio album.

You’re Dead! by electronic producer Flying Lotus is scheduled for release Oct. 6.

The jazz-influenced album, inspired by his great-uncle John Coltrane separates itself by focusing on the theme of death. Siren Song is one example that focuses on its irresistibility.

Fast-paced track Never Catch Me featuring Kendrick Lamar reflects on his career so far, his views on avoiding death and living a life with few worries.
