Flying Lotus has always been restless. The Los Angeles-based producer and instrumentalist has made a career pushing the envelopes of hip-hop and beat music, the patron saint of local haunts like Low End Theory and a fixture at global institutions like BBC Radio 1. Last year, he dropped the jazz-infused LP You're Dead!, just as his pseudonymous rap career as Captain Murphy was starting to gain traction.

It was on the subject of the latter that FlyLo let slip a bit of compelling information. When a fan on Twitter asked about the schedule for future Captain Murphy releases, the producer mentioned that much of his time had been consumed "writing this stupid movie." While there is no new information on the project at this time, Lotus has made brief forays into the medium before.
