  1. Pitchfork
    85
    With its accomplished fusion of debris and warmth in a place somewhere between b-boy head-nod and laptopper experimentalism, Los Angeles is a big step forward for a still-young career, an album well worth revisiting years from now--preferably on vinyl, where the pops and clicks can only multiply.
  2. Drowned In Sound
    80
    The record is almost as seamless as it is engaging, and it subtly commands your attention from start to finish.
  3. Uncut
    60
    It is, like LA itself, heavy on style. [Sep 2008, p.88]

    Simply brilliant. I'm actually appalled by this metacritic score.

    Brilliant. Flying Lotus is a very unheard of artist but is simply brilliant.

    FlyLo is the master of his scene. "Cosmogramma" is going to be huge.
