Thundercat: Midnight Chats Podcast – Episode 24

Stephen Bruner is the guy seemingly born with a supernatural talent for playing bass guitar, used to perform with Snoop Dogg/Erykah Badu/Suicidal Tendencies,  got signed up by Flying Lotus to his Brainfeeder label, produced Kendrick Lamar’s most critically lauded album ‘To Pimp A Butterfly’ and generally is a bloke everyone wants on their album.

It was recorded a couple of weeks back in London as Thundercat was in the UK playing shows supporting his latest album ‘Drunk’. Enjoy…
