Bonobo aka Simon Green returns with ‘Distance In Static’, his new album out September 11th on Ninja Tune.
Across ‘Distance In Static’ Green collaborates with a typically striking cast of artists including Arooj Aftab, Joy Crookes, Nilüfer Yanya, Ichiko Aoba, Nicole Miglis (Hundred Waters) and Aanya Martin. Lyrics appear in English, Urdu and Japanese, while historic Iranian samples and guzheng recordings sit alongside Green's own meticulously processed instrumentation, woven together across recording sessions spanning LA, Tokyo, London and beyond. It’s a record that represents the culmination of over 25 years as a recording artist, and one of the leading voices in electronic music. It’s a career that has seen him release two Top-10 Albums (2017’s ‘Migration’ and 2022’s ‘Fragments, which both landed at #5 on the UK chart), plus numerous Gold and Silver certified singles, sell over 900,000 records, rack up billions of streams, collaborate with the likes of Erykah Badu and Damon Albarn, and be both BRIT and GRAMMY-nominated.
