Music video for Flying Lotus - Camel, a song off his Los Angeles Album. Filmed in and around Santa Monica beach. filmed with Panasonic NV-GS400 edited with premiere
you ever hear a song so good that you feel it in the pit of your stomach and you get goosebumps?? all of flylo's music does that to me. i discovered his magical powers in ninth grade and have been an avid follower since.
I mean, it draws heavily on Dilla and Madlib style of beat production, though I think FlyLo went more software w/ it to an extent. I know he used Reason, and later Ableton. Dilla and Madlib used MPC, I think FlyLo's is a broader work flo style w/ re: to production tools. Yet, you can hear the influence of the MPC all over. 1983 was great, too. I dig the jazz/fusion stuff FlyLo does last few albums (Madlib did some of that, too), but LA was just fire, and helped explode the LA beat scene in the mid '00s.
C'mon bro, Amon Tobin, Hexstatic, Coldcut, years before this, if anything I'd say Los Angeles was just the logical evolution to the sound into the modern era, but definitely not its own category.
I remember listening to this way back when I was a kid! I would search up this exact video on my Nintendo Wii! Haha, crazy how long ago that was! Good ass song, good ass video 👍🏼🔥
This video is amazing considering you made it yourself, I actually thought it was the official music video until I read the description. Oh and this song generally makes me jizz so the together creates a wonderful chaos.
I would like to see someone put together a video of the Turkish belly dancer, Didem, shaking it up to this tune. I always think of a lush harem's den, laying on a Persian carpet, smoking hookah, and watching a belly dancer groove to this. Mmmm... Thank you Fly-Lo
The video is pretty cool. I think it reflects perfectly the eclectic rythm in the fast motion images. Plus it has a perfect balance between hyper developed urban space and lyrical landscapes, same as the song. Great Job.
As if the song wasn't enough, now the video's got me mesmerized too!

I dont really know why, but I enjoy very much listening to this music in your video. That part (0:44) with the slow shutter like effect with the sunset really grabs the mood of the music. Sometimes with not so good tools very nice things are done. Congrats
i dont understand why so many people say idm genre have no artist, i mean compare to other POP genres its true, but for a man that listens to IDM for years, and digging to find new promising artist, i can tell you that idm is growing, all you need to do is to search, there a new great artists like Lights of Aeon for example that are doing things that never been done, and there are others under them that are also good. imo the genre needs a little bit more time to become the future of music.
I listen and forget sometimes that this was created through human trial and error. It feels fluid and content, like it was produced out of thin air...
I HEAR YA BUDDY

It's like treacle that's been warmed over a campfire thats just dribbling down my scalp, and into my head thropugh my ears.
Blake James i wish u were saying this during the song in a old man voice
you're effin stupid.

Los Angeles was pretty much a game changer. Flying lotus is a true pioneer.
Do you know similar approach to beats before this album?
None. I truly think Los Angeles is in its own category.

Agreed! Easily one of my favorite albums of all time.

I'm a beginner but If the universe permits it, I too one day will accomplish the immortality of what is to put your soul into your music.
Amen. Or fuck yes. You pick. I'm in. :D
How’s it going man?
Did you make it bro?
Godspeed, friend!
I listened to this song when I drove up to Malibu, it was the dopest shit ever.
I was really lost in the dopeness of this sound. WHY ISN'T THIS LONGER!
Xavier Gomez right i just keep on pressing the replay button
+el diablo go to infinite looper
that's better than switching out of a 5 minute long track
I love that clip at 1:38, the rush of cars moving in order, appearing and disappearing whilst the sky dips and changes colour.. deep
This beat is pretty hypnotic I'm not gonna lie 🤦🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾
Mayne, i thought i was in Los Santos for that good 4.5 seconds.
Amazing how simple video editting can make music vids like this aesthetically pleasing.
this song though.... so magical
Truly a masterful production
I remember listening to this way back when I was a kid! I would search up this exact video on my Nintendo Wii! Haha, crazy how long ago that was! Good ass song, good ass video 👍🏼🔥
YES

First time am listening to this.
I'm fucking blown away.
Amazing song. Best music video ever.
mannnn....a classic
this video editing is awesome, went with the music very nicely
still one of my favorite videos on youtube
Hell YEA!!
@Joel-xm6tb yes
In these days, if it isn't on the radio its a good song.
Los Angeles is beautiful... I need to move there
This video is amazing considering you made it yourself, I actually thought it was the official music video until I read the description.

This song was my SHIT in high school, recently remembered it and it's still as good as I remember
A GTAV drive to the army base yep yep
He sampled this later on Flylo FM if you listen close you’ll hear what I’m talking about
I would like to see someone put together a video of the Turkish belly dancer, Didem, shaking it up to this tune. I always think of a lush harem's den, laying on a Persian carpet, smoking hookah, and watching a belly dancer groove to this.
Mmmm... Thank you Fly-Lo
I first heard this song years ago in Jealov's Unable mixtape, but I never knew who it was by. Shazam didn't even help. GOD, I love this song.
The video is pretty cool. I think it reflects perfectly the eclectic rythm in the fast motion images. Plus it has a perfect balance between hyper developed urban space and lyrical landscapes, same as the song.
Great Job.
Great series of shots in this vid, deserves all the views it has for sure.
I think I heard a rendition of this song in the italian job
This is Life.
Seeing flying lotus in london friday. FUUUUUUUCCCCK my head is GOING TO EXPLODE!!!
As if the song wasn't enough, now the video's got me mesmerized too!

This is art at it's finest.
wow seriously, total chill for me.. good job!
good old santa monica bluffs and the pch at sunset, no better sight in the world
epic video, along with a fantastic song. Great great video!!!
It's a sample of a sample.
Flylo samples Saboteur and Saboteur samples Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation's "Watch n Chain". Sampling comes full circle.
His beats are so mesmerising and trippy, my kinda stuff! :D
this video is the representation of happiness
i dont understand why so many people say idm genre have no artist, i mean compare to other POP genres its true, but for a man that listens to IDM for years, and digging to find new promising artist, i can tell you that idm is growing, all you need to do is to search, there a new great artists like Lights of Aeon for example that are doing things that never been done, and there are others under them that are also good.

Old 4:3 footage is perfect for this track, nice work!
This is on another level!
Nosaj did an awesome job with this song.
I like this ALOT !!
"you could,if you could say something" *beat drops again*
Luxury for the ears to take to the mind

Just wen i think its over i start it over
How Nosaj Thing made this trippy bit better still amazes me, lmao.
I love that this is followed by Melt!
when i went to cali i smoked pot in my buds jeep top down all the way down that highway from beverly to ventura, all that was missing was this song.

I played this on mucore once, now everyone likes FlyLo.
I can listen to him forever
Nice video and editing.

the number of times ive driven on those roads.....
this song makes me wanna dance, smoke a ciggarrette, and get real high
all in that order :D
Very good video !
Appears that Amon Tobin himself sampled Aynsley Dunbar's retaliation's "Watch & chain"
Awesome
at around 1:20, you can hear the same tune that is hummed in his song off of Cosmogramma "..and the world laughs with you"
I was sitting in complete silence several minutes after this song ended because the residue it left behind had me frozen.
This tune is dope!
I cant help but to keep playin it
Dope!
Flylo's best song
i wish this was longer :(
reminds me of being out in Africa amongst a tribe!
aww i wanna see the official vid too, youtube cant handle flyLo!
j adore

Sick and so weird.
Had a similar idea for the video of this track.
beautiful beats vibrating my feet
Flying Lotus - Jay-Z
DAMN!
NICE VIDEO!

@LionsToTheChristians Im glad camels have a good taste in music.
Fall in love twice
Amon Tobin - Saboteur. Good sample, both great songs.
i can picture myself riding in a caravan smoking reefer out of a hookah on an elephants back when this song comes on

GREAT VIDEO! The job You did while making this video, hey, dude: Thank You! 5 stars for the time You invested in making this video! LIKE IT.
FlyLo is a black man. I hear the same vibes as a black in ATL. He got them 808’s in him too please believe. The black man is god.
let em know. the man put soul in experimental space beats.
