“Born in rural Hampshire, Simon Green (Bonobo), escaped to Brighton at age eighteen, where he fell into the jazz/hip hop/funk/soul scene centred around Rob Luis and nights like phonic:hoop. His first release,”Terrapin” was included on the compilation “When Shapes Join Together,” in 1999, and his debut album, “Animal Magic” followed the next year, completely self-produced and largely self-played. Hailed as one of the “new downtempo pioneers,” Green found himself attracting the attention of other labels and eventually signed to Ninja Tune.
In 2003 he released his first album for the label, “Dial ‘M’ For Monkey,” and “Days To Come” followed in 2006, offering a lusher, more live sound than on his earlier records.
Over the last couple of years, Bonobo has become one of the premier artists on the Ninja Tune imprint, and certainly one of the most listened to with over 16 million plays recorded on LastFM. His combination of superb live shows and studio wizardry means that he is now perfectly placed to push on into an even bigger league. With “Black Sands,” Bonobo has made the record to achieve it.”
