Blue Note Residency 2026 · Social Recap

Flying Lotus · Blue Note 2026

Short-form social recap · cut from the late sets, New York + Los Angeles

Round 2 — three versions to compare. All regraded: shadows lifted so people are actually readable, and heavier grain. Audio on every version is a single unbroken take, never a stitched-together bed. Music is still placeholder until the multitrack mix is done.

LA early sets (7/11, 7/12) were not pulled, since the brief specified late sets only. Available on request. Note the LA “Output 1” files are a locked-off house camera on an empty room, not a program mix; the three ISO cams are the usable 4K angles.
