Thundercat ft. BADBADNOTGOOD, Flying Lotus – King of the Hill
Thundercat, BADBADNOTGOOD, and Flying Lotus on one track — a collaboration for the ages!
This new track was released ahead of Brainfeeder’s upcoming 36-track compilation celebrating their 10-year anniversary.
The track features Thundercat’s unmistakable falsetto, backed up with remarkably spacey BBNG keyboards. A somber collection of thoughts facing a back-and-forth relationship are broken up with funky interlaid keys and soothing Thundercat background vocals. I can’t explain why, but this track feels almost medieval, almost like I should be reading Beowulf while listening.
This upcoming compilation promises new tracks from scores of Brainfeeder artists, it’s out November 16th and will feature artists like TOKiMONSTA and FlyLo.
