Any Dutch people going to his concert in Tivoli on the 30th of May? I'll be there.

"Ninja Tune has pressed 250 white label records featuring a brand new track from the album. These 12"s will be hidden in some of the best indie record shops all over the world over the next few weeks.
Each 12" has a unique code within it, which can be entered below for a chance to win a top secret grand prize"

I would love to know what the grand prize is. Actually I'd love to have some Bonobo vinyl in general. *hits repeat on Sleepy Seven for the fourth time*

That is probably due to it leaking.

Well, I just got done listening to it.

Such a progression. He moves even more into the electronic realm with this album. But it's beautiful. I need a few more listens to accurately judge it, but first run through was great. Last two songs really stand out.

Lovely and worth the wait.

Good stuff, Bonobo going back to his electronic roots with a heavy Black Sands influence.

Very interesting hearing him use Side-chain. I always thought his natural style of production would not allow for such trickery. At the same time, it does work to make some parts more beautiful.

Track number 1 has had relentless play since I've copped the album. So awesome.

I saw him in Denver last night. It's hard to say, but I think it might have been the tightest and most gripping live show I've ever seen. The musicianship is just unparalleled. He had a very talented live band, including a drummer, saxophonist/flautist, guitarist, bassist, and vocalist.

His live show is INCREDIBLE, anyone planning to see him is guaranteed to have a great experience.

:D

So freaking envious.... Wanted to see him in DC but the show actually sold out weeks in advance! Damn. Had no idea he was that popular over here too.

Now he probably won't be back for another year at least, and who knows if he'll even bring the full live band next time around (which is how I really wanna see him, not just a DJ set).

I saw him three times when he was touring after Black Sands (*three fantastic shows), but I'm really curious to hear how his new stuff sounds live.

Doubt he'll come around these parts for a while though.

Just wanted to pop in to say I saw his live show in Madison, WI on 4/21. Great show, very talented, would see again! I've seen some of his DJ sets on Youtube and it is my humble opinion that his full-band live shows are better!

Started listening to this of late - really loving it - ultra chilled & mellow.

I think it's his best so far

"The North Borders" that is
