Now in its seventh year of existence, the Hard Summer festival once again grabbed Los Angeles’ State Historic Park by its cojones over the weekend. Featuring a roster of artists from across the electronic spectrum, the music was spread across four stages and two days, and performed for some 70,000 people. Somewhere between a high school rave and a state fair that you really wouldn’t want to bring your parents to, there were many things in abundance. Among them: syncopated hi-hats, undergarments disguised as clothing, and young people absolutely on one. Or two.
Flying Lotus Gets His Own Radio Station in Grand Theft Auto V With New Music from Tyler, The Creator and More
Rockstar Games' blockbuster Grand Theft Auto games always come packed with an impressive soundtrack. The music is spread across several radio stations, featuring notable hosts.
(Past GTA radio DJs have been voiced by Iggy Pop, Axl Rose, Chuck D, DJ Premier, Femi Kuti, and others.) Grand Theft Auto V, out September 17, will feature 17 different radio stations.
One of those stations will be FlyLo FM, hosted and mixed by Flying Lotus. It features the new track "Garbage" by Tyler, the Creator, as well as new music from FlyLo himself and his rapping alter-ego Captain Murphy, plus music from Clams Casino, Hudson Mohawke, Aphex Twin, Outkast, and more. Check out the tracklist for the station below, plus a montage of what to expect from the station, above, along with the station logo. We also have photos of FlyLo and Tyler recording for the station, below. In a press release, soundtrack supervisor Ivan Pavlovich said, "Soundtracks have been an essential part of all our games and for Grand Theft Auto V, we wanted to cover the full breadth of the modern L.A. scene. From Flying Lotus breaking exclusives on his own radio station FlyLo FM, to new tracks from Wavves and Twin Shadow to some incredible classic hip-hop hosted by DJ Pooh, through to the Narco Corridos of East LOS FM, Grand Theft Auto V’s radio stations paint a definitive and eclectic picture of Los Santos through the sounds you’ll hear driving down the freeway."
