- FlyLo interview on Thom's collaboration:

.... I sent him a folder, and two days later I had the song in my email, with all these parts to work with. It was really cool, super-chilled out, considering what a big star he is. I'm really thankful, because the universe he's created is a very special one, and he doesn't invite many people into it.
.....He used the title I gave him ['...And The World Laughs With You']-- that was another super-crazy thing. It meant a lot to me, the song title. That tune comes from a fucking tough time in my life. It's like, as the song says, laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry, and you cry alone. At the time I was really feeling that. People don't really care to be around when you're going through tough times. No--one really know what you're going through.
...That feeling you're kind of alien. He got that.

This feels like a perfect blend between Utopia’s soundtrack and Kid A

The description.... I’m not crying I swear

Cosmogramma is the last album I listened to I knew would always be part of my life. I was looking forward to it from the tracks he teased, Computer Face and Pseudo Nymph on Gilles Peterson, and it totally blew my mind. Made me have faith that music is never finished or... just going stale like jaded older people tend to say nostalgically. Never heard anything like this before or really after. A truly original and undeniably genius album that breathes fruitfully back into the universe. Pure love
