Ok so I go to Texas Tech University and it has always been my dream to have my own radio show. I am fortunate enough to have two for KTXT and this is the one that I do on Friday nights from 11 pm CST to 1 am CST. I record the shows, so you can enjoy this one. You can catch me on Thursdays at 3 pm CST and on Fridays at the time above on ktxtfm.org or on your mobile device through the app TuneIn and you can find the station 'The Raider 88.1'. Download it and listen to it as much as you want until Saturday. I'll be taking this down to upload the next one.

This is one of my favorite projects from the SaveMoney crew. Nico Segal aka Donnie Trumpet is a former member of the band Kids These Days and he has this amazing EP that features mostly Vic Mensa with an appearance from Chance the Rapper.

As you know, Flying Lotus had his own station on GTA. I present to you Flylo FM

This as you remember came from GTA V. Check it out. October 7th

If the beat sounds familiar to you, it is Lately from Hodgy Beats Untitled EP. Yes it was produced by Lotus. This was a nice little tune that I could get into on late nights. October 7th

In 2012, Flying Lotus released his album Until the Quiet Comes which was a huge step because with this release, it was an overall theme and feeling to it as if it were created as a soundtrack. October 7th

This is a collaboration that was done with Baths. It's kept short and simple but really is a standout track of his random releases. October 7th

This is the most significant Flying Lotus song to me. This was actually my introduction into listening to his music. It was the summer of 2012 and when I first heard this I checked it out for the Earl feature because I was anticipating hearing more from Earl after his return from Samoa. Not only was this my first Lotus listen, but we were introduced to the incognito rapper known as Captain Murphy. So much speculation came around who this person was and it turned out to be Lotus himself. If you like this check out the Murphy project Duality. October 7th

Just click the link and I shouldn't even have to explain why I love this song so much. It's one that was able to take me places. It was also my introduction into Thundercat who is also a favorite of mine. This is from the album Cosmogramma. October 7th
