Steven Ellison (aka Flying Lotus ) is a production renaissance man , and Thursday evening his many talents were on display at Cleveland's House of Blues. At the helm of the experimental Brainfeeder imprint, Ellison made the executive decision to bring labelmates Teebs and Thundercat with him on the road. Although each hail from the same label, the trio are by no means cut from the same mold. Beat-focused, each gentleman has developed their own means to proliferate his sound across an introspective dancefloor. Teebs, who also spends his days as a visual artist, [...]
[Stephen Bruner, a.k.a. Thundercat] Stephen Bruner's " Heartbreaks + Setbacks" is a single off of his forthcoming LP titled "Apocolypse" out via Brainfeeder on July 7th. The heart-felt single was co-produced by Brainfeeding cohorts Mono/Poly and Flying Lotus , and each artist can be heard distinctly within the track. Thundercat's fingers skittering all over the bass guitar, Flying Lotus's atmospheric chord progressions, and Mono/Poly's signature 'apreggiated' synth lines all come together to create an emotional piece of artwork.

Los Angeles slow-burner Azizi Gibson just dropped a new track fresh from the Brainfeed labs. "SSB (100MPH)" has all the percussive energy of ATL trap with Gibson's OFWGKTA-meets-Eddie-Murphy delivery and the retrofuturist sampladelia characteristic of Flying Lotus's Brainfeeder crew. A few hiccups in what is not an entirely natural combination, but Gibson knits it together: he's a charismatic rhymer with a confident cadence. Look forward to his new tape .
Flying Lotus fans rejoice! A new local Flying Lotus tour date has been added for the hometown favorite. Getting behind the turntables on Saturday, June 1, at House of Blues Sunset Strip, Flying Lotus will be performing live in support...

Bass Guitarist Thundercat releases a new track “Oh Sheit It's X,” off his forthcoming album Apocalypse executive produced by Flying Lotus. Apocalypse drops July 9th via Brainfeeder Records. www.brainfeedersite.com
Another Thundercat single dropped t'other day, this time featuring the Lotus man himself on the production side of things. To quote the man himself when he was teasing it he other day; "When I heard people trippin on the new daft punk song I said to myself. Wait till they hear this new Thundercat"
When news emerged of a collaboration project between Thundercat and Flying Lotus , my brain nearly exploded from the utter awesomeness of this news. And to show us what they have been working on, the duo released a funky groove called "Oh Sheit It's X." Literally, within a few seconds of the song starting I knew this was going to be the jam of the day, and I'm bumping this a lot. This will certainly improve your day and get you dancing around. Their joint project, Apocalypse, is out in early June . [...]

Disco funk is in the air and we aren't complaining. Here's a delicious release from Thundercat , a seasoned veteran off Brainfeeder . With help from none other than label-mate Flying Lotus , "Oh Sheit It's X" is definitely a massive tune. Turn it up and enjoy your car ride home. Thundercat - Oh Sheit It's X The post Stream: Thundercat - Oh Sheit It's X appeared first on Vibe To This .
I'm late on Brainfeeder's growing phenomenon that goes by the name of Thundercat , so i thought i would awake from my slumber and peep " Oh Sheit It's X" , mostly because Flying Lotus lent some of his wizardly magic on the production side. It's funk driven, with an addictive 802s groove, topped off with fun, infectious lyrics. Makes me want to call someone a jive turkey while doing the twist. A winner i must say, this excites me for Thundercat' s forthcoming Apocalypse album executive produced by Flying Lo. It'll be born sometime during the first week [...]
Brainfeeder's Thundercat shares a delirious and perfect little single called "Oh Sheit It's X." The track was co-produced by label head and virtuoso beatsmith Flying Lotus and will be on Thundercat's Apocalypse – which was also co-produced by Flying Lotus – due out June 4.

All Thundercat wants to do is party, sliding along the dancefloor in ecstasy. That's all the guy wants to do and he'll be damned if some buzzkilling chick's going to stand in his way. Sure, he mentions on his Flying Lotus- and Mono/Poly-produced track "Oh Sheit It's X," he'd love if this woman, with the nice leather purse, joined him to revel in this ecstasy. But over a beat ripped straight from the '80s, which is so infectiously funky it probably should've been the background music to one of the later "Beverly Hills Cop" movies, [...]
Thundercat. Thundercat es el nuevo protegido de Flying Lotus , quien asumió el rol de productor en su álbum debut Apocalypse . Este lanzamiento ocurrirá el 4 de junio (en formato digital) y el 9 de julio (en formato físico). La música de este productor originario de Los Angeles, California, se puede definir como funk espacial bastante pegajoso y lo pueden comprobar a continuación con su nueva canción "Oh Sheit It's X".

The second thing you might do when hearing Thundercat's new single is notice how it's the perfect high-energy counterpoint to first single " Heartbreaks + Setbacks "'s yearning beauty. The first thing you'll probably do when hearing "Oh Sheit It's X" though is say something along the lines of "Oh shit! That bass!" Don't worry, it's normal, Thundercat has that effect on people.

by Andrew Sacher Mac Miller and Ab-Soul (via Macklemore's Instagram ) It's not too out of the ordinary when rappers I don't like collaborate or tour with rappers we do like, but Mac Miller has been up to it a lot lately. First, he did a track, "S.D.S," which was produced by Flying Lotus (and FlyLo fans shared a collective sigh of relief when the instrumental version came out). Then [...]
Bass master Thundercat has dropped yet another track from his sophomore full-length, which is on the way soon via Brainfeeder records. The track's title is "Oh Sheit It's X," and it's led to yet another moment where I'm left wondering how good this album is actually going to be. Thundercat's first album took on many of the same funk and jazz fusion influences the song above does, but translated them into something futuristic, intergalactic thanks to production help from longtime collaborator Flying Lotus. This new cut takes a lot of the same funk tropes, [...]
