Listen: Strobo Trip - Flaming Lips 6 hour single





The Flaming Lips known for their trippy interactive stage shows now allow you to have one of your own in your own bedroom whilst zoning out to a 6 hour song entitled "I Found a Star on the Ground".   Released as a charity aid for the Central Oklahoma Humane Society and the Academy of Contemporary Music at the University of Central Oklahoma, Strobo Trip Light Phase Illusion Animation was released as a limited, collectors edition 3-song EP (collab with Sean Lennon) accompanied with a strobe light and multiple trippy discs.  The goal is to spin the discs and shine the strobe on them creating some looped animations you can stare at presumably and hopefully for a number of hours.

This interesting release comes in a line of new "object releases" Wayne Coyne and the Lips have been doing and have planned for the future. Others include glow-in-the-dark 12' vinyls and gummy skulls, frogs & fetuses.

"I Found a Star on the Ground" (6 hours, broken up into 3 parts)....

Part 1



Part 2


Part 3




To check out the other 2 tracks pick up the collectors edition of Strobe Trip for $45.  You'll be lucky to track one down but if you do wont be disappointed... and its for charity, ya ass.
