Simon Green, also known as Bonobo, returns with a new full-length LP through Ninja Tune on March 29, entitled Black Sands. Before that there's a single out on Monday, March 8 - 'Eyesdown'. Even before that, however, we have an exclusive 11-minute mix of the very best bits of the album, also available for download. A preview. A taster, if you will. Aperitif.
Listen and/or download it below:
Black Sands represents Bonobo's first full-length since 2006's Days To Come, so it's well overdue. As we told you earlier in the year, there's a free mp3 preview of the 'Eyesdown' available to anyone with a computer and internet connection. Click here to get all two-minutes thirty-four of it.
