Cosmogramma is an album by Flying Lotus, released on May 3, 2010, on Warp Records. The title comes from an incident when he was listening to an Ashram lecture from his great-aunt Alice Coltrane and he misheard the words "cosmic drama" as cosmogramma.
The album was awarded the top spot in Exclaim! Magazine's annual ranking of Electronic albums. Dimitri Nasrallah writes of Flying Lotus, "In the five years since he first appeared on the scene, the Los Angeles native's talents have grown in such leaps and bounds that he now finds himself pioneering a full-blown West-Coast beats renaissance." More recently, it was ranked the 14th best album of 2010 by Pitchfork Media and #1 album of the year at the Gilles Peterson World Wide Awards 2011. The song "...And the World Laughs with You" was featured in the HBO TV series True Blood (season 4, episode 2). Read more on Last.fm.
