From Royksopp: “We have swum out of the mire to present you with a ‘farewell to summer’ tune.

Bonobo – Black Sands May 3, 2010

Simon Green goes by the stage name Bonobo.  He recently released his fourth album, Black Sands.  Every album is an impressive, well crafted work of art and Green’s development and growth as a musician and producer is on full display.  As I’ve gone through his catalog, each album seems better than the preceding one.  It’s especially fun [...] Read More…

Breakbot January 29, 2010
