Flying Lotus

It took me a while to get why everyone is so excited about Flying Lotus. But with every man and his dog listing his Los Angeles album in their top 10 for 2008, I decided to check it out. It is, it must be said, the dog's bollocks. His set at Days Like This festival was an absolute highlight, and he was kind enough to let people take photos with him afterwards (sorry dude, I was pretty drunk by that stage). Also of note is his astoundingly good essential mix done for BBC Radio.
