Bonobo, AKA Simon Green is a British musician, producer and DJ.
Bonobo uses a wide variety of samples in his music combined with heavy, often complex basslines.
In 2004 he decided to follow the growing trend amongst electronic acts of playing with a full band.
The band plays live renditions of studio material, with a singer, keyboardist, guitarist, saxophonist, string section, electronics, and drummer. Simon mainly plays bass guitar, leads the band and writes.
The most current Album, The North Borders is the fifth studio album by Bonobo.
It was due for release on 1 April 2013, but was released early on the 21st March in digital format after a promotional copy was leaked.
The album charted at number 29 on the UK Album Charts.
