Tune in to hear the stories behind recent singles 'Sun, I Rise' and 'Tyler Forever', the influence of Kamasi Washington and Kendrick Lamar on his work, and how grief has shaped his latest output.

Also on the show, we look for your all-time favourite B-sides for Flipside Thursday, you get the choice of two tunes in 'Either/Or', and the mighty Trunk of Punk returns. To get involved, email us at craig@bbc.co.uk
