Do The Astral Plane by Flying Lotus
I’ll start off with a suitably mundane story, combined with a pretty great song.
This was the song I would generally listen to on my phone whilst walking home at night after a shift at work last summer. Like the rebellious teenager I was (right?) I would play it through the speaker, doing the incredible production absolutely no favours at all. Despite it seeming a bit of a chore, I only have good memories of that time in the kitchen; it was my first real job, and despite not being amazing at it, it was pretty fun. I liked walking home at night, and getting in and feeling justified about being lazy, pouring myself a Jack and Coke, and sitting down with my parents watching rubbish TV.
