Los Angeles producer, singer, bassist and all-round legend Stephen Bruner – aka Thundercat – shared a brand new song on Arvos with Chris Twite.

In the country for St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival and sideshows, Thundercat shared advice he’s learned from working with Flying Lotus and Erykah Badu, and programmed songs that have influenced him: David Bowie’s ‘Aladdin Sane’ and Wings’ ‘Arrow Through Me’.

He then threw in one of his own: an as-yet untitled collaboration with Mono/Poly, who has worked with Bruner previously on ‘Heartbreaks & Setbacks’ and ‘Oh Shiet, it’s X’. More recently, the pair teamed up on an instrumental tribute to those who lost their lives in the Paris terror attacks.
