If I hadn’t already put together the Best Downloads of the Week post, I would have absolutely placed Tiger Tsunami’s Re:Antarctica EP on there. The London producer’s style is reminiscent of Teebs and Flying Lotus’ work but with some guitars thrown into the mix to make it his own. Tiger Tsunami also enlisted three choice collaborators to deliver remixes of each track on here. I’m personally drawn to “Waves” the most, especially that outro, but the other two originals are just as lovely. Also, Koloto’s remix of “Waves” is bonkers. And glitchy.

I didn’t think RE:ANTARCTICA sounds like flying lotus at all. Tiger Tsunami uses vocal samples to structure most of his songs. Flying lotus just kind of uses them as flourishes to the waviness.
This is so derivative, you could almost describe it as biting (plagiarism, if you don’t speak the lingo.)
