About

A TAV Curator’s Pick.

Apocalypse is the second studio album by American musician Thundercat. It was originally released in 2013 under the label Brainfeeder. The 7th track on the album, "Oh Sheit It's X", was featured on the FlyLo FM station in Grand Theft Auto V.

In February 2014 Thundercat released a double video on the "MySpace" website for the 10th and 11th tracks from the album, respectively titled "Evangelion" and "We'll Die", which were both directed by the photographer B+ (Brian Cross), who also shot the album art. - Wiki

“The Flying Lotus-co-produced second solo album by virtuoso bassist Stephen Bruner is an endearing blend of plainspoken nonchalance and almost limitless musical eccentricity. Bruner channels rich, often complex music through an engagingly human voice.” - Pitchfork

“Produced by Ellison himself, Apocalypse is a bitches brew of space voyager electronica, bedroom night soul and subtly fused jazz. It’s a superficially lighthearted record with a somewhat ambiguous dark heart, a revival of a time-honoured tradition of the soul and jazz records which Bruner grew up on. From the solemn and proud front cover through to the final orchestral triptych – dedicated Austin Peralta, a collaborator, close friend and labelmate who passed away earlier this year – Apocalypse is an album that is reflective and often melancholy, especially when compared to its playful, bright predecessor.” - Drowned in Sound
