The Golden Age of Apocalypse (Ten Year Anniversary Edition) by Thundercat


"The Golden Age of Apocalypse" was a record that introduced Stephen Bruner, also known as Thundercat, as a talented musician and creative force. The album was executive produced by Flying Lotus and featured a group of talented young musicians from Los Angeles, including Young Jazz Giants Kamasi Washington, Cameron Graves and Ronald Bruner Jr, as well as Austin Peralta, Brandon Coleman, Taylor Graves, Hadrien Féraud and Oliver Johnson. The release of this album inspired and motivated many of these musicians to release their own albums, which gained recognition and attention for the wealth of jazz talent in LA, specifically Kamasi Washington's "The Epic" in 2015.
