Flying Lotus took to Twitter to detail further upcoming forays into film, after debuting his short film Royal at Sundance Festival this weekend. He revealed that Royal is "just one piece" of a larger feature film called Kuso, conceptually centering on "pretty much everything (he's) afraid of."
Having "steady filming low key this year with some talented folks", the film will also feature music from Aphex Twin, regular collaborator and Brainfeeder label-mate Thundercat and a notable appearance from Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka, ensuring the soundtrack will be decidedly creepy.
More details can be found below.
I lied .. "Royal" is just one piece of first my feature film called "Kuso" been steady filming low key this year with some talented folks.
Decided to follow my heart and make a film. Don't have financial support and spending a lot of time begging for favors but it feels right
That's the plan https://t.co/4UK2zkCIba

So far Kuso is about 65% finished. The music is 'getting there' as well. A lot to do but the most fun I've had since I made @xCaptainMurphyx

Really happy to have some new Aphex @Thundercat and @AkiraYamaoka music in the film too

The idea behind "Kuso" is a simple one. It's pretty much everything I'm afraid of.
