SIMON GREEN, aka BONOBO, returns with the highly anticipated and most accomplished fourth album to date, the magnificent Black Sands. Once again, GREEN proves himself to be an ambitious artist and producer, capable of mastering any style. SIMON GREEN discovered the jazz/hip-hop/funk/soul scene with ROB LUIS. An accomplished musician, he produces his own songs. Animal Magic, his very first self-produced album from start to finish, was released the following year. Hailed as one of the "new pioneers of downtempo," GREEN then signed with Ninja Tune. Dial M For Monkey was released in 2003. Days To Come followed in 2006 and was voted Album of the Year by GILLES PETERSON. This was the turning point, and thanks to this award, he met ADREYA TRIANA, whose first recordings he would produce, and who makes an essential contribution to Black Sands. This is the dual vocal he has always sought. For several years, BONOBO has been one of the flagships of the Ninja Tune label. The combination of his superb live performances and his studio genius makes him a unique artist, and Black Sands is proof of that. This album, composed and arranged as usual by SIMON GREEN himself (he plays most of the instruments), is a masterpiece of technical mastery and musical inspiration. "The Key" – a superb first single from Black Sands – is now taking over the airwaves. BONOBO and ADREYA TRIANA are now journeying together on the golden path to success.
