Eats The Light

MacGuffin

A warm, somewhat instrumental journey through time, memory, and movement. This 12-track project blends jazz, soul, and boom-bap.

From the immediacy of Now to the hazy reflections of Rearview, each track sketches a moment in motion. Jungle Dreams, Downtown and The Antagonist pulse with life, while Echoes and Cracked Bell linger like distant thoughts.

It’s a soundtrack for quiet streets, open windows, and everything in between.

Tracklist:
1 - Intro Skit
2 - Now
3 - Later
4 - Skit
5 - Jungle Dreams
6 - Downtown
7 - The Antagonist
8 - Side B
9 - Echoes
10 - Cracked Bell
11 - Rearview
12 - Outro

Echoes

Tune in and experience select hand-picked improvised “Flips,” culled from our 2016 journeys from Episodic Festival stops, and shows from our West and California runs.

Derek on “Flips”…

“We ended up devising something we call ‘flips.” We’ll start with a produced song, and everyone has a philosophy for playing on top of the produced songs. Alvin has acoustic drums that he’ll play on top of it, and we also have drum triggers for electronic drum sounds so we can get a produced sound from the live kit. When I call a ‘flip’ everyone knows that I’m about to filter out the produced track. When the produced music disappears, the live musicians completely switch their sound to something that’s more electronic. Borahm will drop into a synth bass, Alvin will switch to an electronic kick and an electronic snare. It’s like a quick crossfade. It allows us to go from the produced track, with the band accentuating it, to a fully live band without losing something…It’s completely improvised but we’ve put a lot of time into making sure they know, stylistically, where the bounds are.”

04 Checkmate

Lotus has crafted a unique musical style outside of simple genre limitations. On a given weekend the band could be the only group with guitars at an all electronic music festival and then the next night crash a traditional rock festival with their dance heavy beats, synths and samples. Equal parts instrumental post-rock and electronic dance, the band's distinguishing feature is the ability to maintain a decidedly unique musical voice and remain current while bucking passing trends.

No matter what the venue, the energetic joy and catharsis of a Lotus show is infectious. The band slowly built a devoted fan base through steady touring and the crowds have grown at an increasing pace. This grassroots growth has made the band in high demand for festivals including Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Ultra, and Rothbury and earned the band sold out shows at the country's premier theatres and clubs.
