OFFICIAL BIO
Regarded upon his 2006 arrival as a promising beatmaker looming in the shadows of J Dilla, Madlib, waterfalls and Dabrye, Steven Ellison -- known as Flying Lotus -- nullified all comparisons only two years later with Los Angeles. On that album, his first of five for the Warp label, Ellison distilled a uniquely crisp, spasmodic, and heady sound with elements of hip-hop, avant-garde jazz, IDM, and dubstep. While the abovementioned producers fueled Ellison, he had also been excited as a youngster by the '90s West Coast rap classics that combined programming and live instrumentation. His sound continued to develop as he put his own twist on the approach, recording with a crop of jazz musicians including the indispensable likes of bassist Thundercat and strings master Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. This process began with the turbulent 2010 set Cosmogramma and peaked in terms of acclaim in 2014 with You're Dead!, which crashed the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and spawned the Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Never Catch Me," a Grammy nominee for Best Dance Recording. Ellison devoted a few years to various forms of film work and the operation of his revered Brainfeeder label, and returned in 2019 with Flamagra, his second consecutive album to top Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart.

Beholding Phil David DJ in a club is so much more enjoyable of an experience than watching your average, dozy, button pusher. Whether he's jumping off DJ booths which have really no business supporting more than two CDJs and a mixer, or screaming along to "Love At First Sight" by Kylie Minogue so much that he nearly forgets to put on the next song, Vancouver's favourite versatile DJ puts away any doubt that you came to the wrong party. His energy and his penetrating love of music new and old has got him residencies at places like the Fox Cabaret and the now-defunct Ginger62, and has him constantly a first pick for support when artists like Com Truise or Breakbot come through town. If you like your parties to be much more than standing around, plucking out which version of which song is playing, but still learn a few new tracks, find Phil David and you'll find a little more than you expect.
