Flying Lotus airs new video for ‘Never Catch Me’

In his own roundabout, completely nuts way, Steven Ellison aka Flying Lotus deals with the heavy topic of mortality on his ‘You’re Dead!’ LP.

For an accompanying video to match up with the ‘Never Catch Me’ track, this theme unravels in unexpected ways. It shows children, previously dead and near-on-buried, rising from their coffins and spinning in motion to perform an enlivened dance.

The track itself features Kendrick Lamar on vocals and Thundercat - of course - on bass.

Hiro Murai directs the video and you can watch it below.

‘You’re Dead!’ is out 6th October 2014. Catch up with ‘Coronus, The Terminator’ here.
