MP3: Thundercat: "Daylight"

The bass-playing Los Angeles native Stephen Bruner, who records as Thundercat, has had a truly varied career. He's done session and tour work for people like Snoop Dogg and Eric Benet, he's been a member of a boy band that scored a hit in Germany, and he's played with mookish hardcore legends Suicidal Tendencies. (Actually, he's still a member of Suicidal Tendencies.) Last year, Thundercat contributed to Cosmogramma, the spaced-out bass music masterwork from Flying Lotus. And on August 30, FlyLo's Brainfeeder label will release Thundercat's solo album The Golden Age of Apocalypse-- produced entirely by FlyLo.

Erykah Badu contributes to the album, as do members of SA-RA Creative Partners and J*Davey, pianist Austin Peralta, and Thundercat's drummer brother Ronald Bruner, Jr. One of the album's tracks, a cover of George Duke's "For Love I Come", recently ended up in our Best New Tracks section. Another, "Daylight", is above. We've got the album's tracklist below. And Thundercat also has a few shows coming up with FlyLo, so we've got those listed out as well.
