Flamingosis - “Autobahn” (with Bliss Station and Ehiorobo)

SXSW 2023 - OEB Score: 7; Popularity Index: 9

Pairs Well With…Flume, Chromeo, Mark Ronson

Whether he’s accompanying soul, hip hop, or funk settings, producer and beat maker Flamingosis finds warmth and nostalgia that heighten his collaborators’ contributions. Flamingosis is a purveyor of groove, succeeding best when he can mix dance beats and cooled synth-pop stylings all at once. Recent single “Autobahn” is a great example, a sunny funk track covered in R&B melodies and synth-trance vibes alongside Bliss Station and Ehiorobo. His last full-length was 2021’s Daymaker, record that combines dreamy throughways and Miami-night grooves, the kind of album that wears sunglasses at night. Flamingosis closes out C3 Management’s party at Antone’s on Wednesday night, a DJ set following sets from Michigander, Brian Sella from The Front Bottoms, and Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness.
