Luke Titus steps into full bloom on From What Was Will Grow A Flower, a sprawling and soulful second LP that’s equal parts jazz mysticism and experimental pop alchemy. Out April 25 via Sooper Records, the album distills Titus’ wide-ranging influences—from Chicago’s jazz undercurrent to L.A.’s beat scene—into a richly layered, deeply personal sonic journey.
The latest single “Sideline” is a dazzling preview: a fluid mix of intricate drumming, airy textures, and shape-shifting production that feels both intimate and celestial. Paired with a stunning Patrick Linehan-directed video, the track solidifies Titus’ role as a genre-bending visionary.
Rooted in jazz but unbound by it, Titus draws from the polyrhythmic genius of J Dilla, the hazy warmth of Toro y Moi, and the restless innovation of Floating Points. The album plays like a spiritual thesis—meditating on connection, loss, and transformation, all anchored by Titus’ immaculate drumming and immersive production.
Already a trusted collaborator (Noname, Ravyn Lenae, Steve Lacy), Titus now plants his own flag with a bold, visionary statement. From What Was Will Grow A Flower isn’t just a record—it’s a world unto itself.
