I didn’t get to listen to this yet. It apparently samples all Imogen Heap tracks though. Not sure the why’s and how’s of that concept?? Pack/Young L fans: how is it?
[Mixtape] Thundercat – Shenanigans Pt. 1 (Mixed by Flying Lotus)
Since I’ve been down in the US the past couple weeks, I’ve had multiple… er, cats on both coasts getting in my ear about this dude Thundercat telling me I need to get at his music.
If you’re not knowing, he’s the bassist for Erykah Badu’s band and also worked with Flying Lotus on his Cosmogramma project. Thundercat makes left-of-center music that can I guess, can be loosely termed as progressive urban music that touches on electronic influences but is also deeply soulful and jazzy in feel. But instead of listening to me try to describe it (‘dancing about architecture….’??), listen to Shenanigans Pt. 1, mixed by Flying Lotus, his first (?) mixtape project highlighting some of his past work and acting as a prelude to his debut album The Golden Age of Apocalypse which drops Aug. 30th.
Check it out and let me know what you think.
Then hit the jump for more music from Thundercat.

Listen to MaG – RefinedHype.com + Different Kitchen Present: MaG & the B-Sides in FULL
I posted the lead track last week but finally here’s the full album, RefinedHype.com + Different Kitchen Present: MaG & the B-Sides by Kitchen favorite, MaG. Here’s the background plug:
“I’ve been toying with the idea of putting out an unreleased project. It finally felt like the right time. Plus, having Refined Hype and Different Kitchen behind the project felt like a good fit. This is a collection of some of my older, unreleased (some unfinished) songs. Some didn’t fit certain projects; some were recorded just because I thought they sounded good. But, I”ll let you make that decision for yourself. For those of you who have never heard of MaG and want to get an idea of how I got to be where I’m at now as an artist, this may be a good starting point. For those who are somewhat familiar, this music should be new to all of you. Some of these joints are a little rough around the edges, but the message has always been the same: dope beats, dope rhymes, and a message to suit.”
Tell us (MaG and the Kitchen) what you think then check him and some of his previous music out online…
