C'mon, New Order is just made for Miss Thundercat. Cue up Age of Consent, and just tell me you won't be bouncing around the room before its over.

A few of them run the gamut, you are right.

I also left out some bands which made it big and which I assume she is already familiar with (e.g., Talking Heads).

Come to think of it, Tom Tom Club may be the most Miss T. band ever. "Watcha gonna do when you get outta jail?"
 
Just listen to Ellington wander through the keys and modes and tempos on this standard -- it's like a graduate seminar in Music Theory in one song.

America has culture.

It's just 75 years old.
