FLYING LOTUS TO RELEASE NEW MUSIC AS CAPTAIN MURPHY NEXT YEAR

The Brainfeeder producer confirms new material coming in 2016

Flying Lotus is planning to release new music as Captain Murphy in 2016.

The producer revealed the news in response to a question posed by a follower on Twitter. 

Capitan Murphy is FlyLo’s madcap rap alter-ego, the identify of which the producer originally kept a secret. In an XXL interview in 2012, FlyLo admitted he was behind the project, telling the magazine, “I never wanted it to be this whole thing about my identity. I never wanted it that to be the case. The only think that I wanted out of it, I just didn’t want people to like try and hype it up.”

‘You’re Dead!’, the LA producer’s last album released in 2014, featured two tracks with appearances from Captain Murphy — ‘Dead Man’s Tetris’ and ‘The Boys Who Died In Their Sleep’.
