Harry Kappen didn’t just cross an ocean—he detonated his old life and stitched together a new one somewhere between memory, love, and whatever fragile truth still survives the noise.

Thundercat, known for his unique and instantly recognizable bass lines and infectious rhythms, is set to release his sixth studio album (If you include Drank as an album). This will be the first time in 6 years that he would have released an album.

Gary Pratt’s “Buzzin’” unfolds like a late summer evening you didn’t plan but somehow needed. It doesn’t announce itself with grandeur or strain for significance. Instead, it settles in, easy as a porch light flickering on, and lets the details do the talking.
