“Back in 2012, Glaswegian musician Auntie Flo quietly released a mini-album to much critical acclaim. Three years later, and after numerous releases for Huntleys & Palmers, Autonomous Africa, Highlife and Permanent Vacation, he returns with his first extended body of work.
Theory of Flo takes its lead from Hungarian psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s ‘Theory of Flow’, which preaches the art of living in the moment. In Auntie Flo’s case, this is done with one eye on the dancefloor, taking its cue from styles, rhythms, vocalists and musicians from around the world. In partnership with South African producer Esa, it was recorded over a two-year period in Havana, Glasgow and London and has numerous contributors from around the world. After premiering a track from the album last month, it seemed like the next logical step to invite him in for a Worldwide mixtape. We’re told this is made up of tracks that inspired the making of his album, as well as a couple new bits.”
