Electro-alchemist Bonobo pulls together such a potent mix of lush orchestration and ethereal vocals, you might forget that it's all hip-hop at the core. Case in point: his recent Ninja Tune release, Days to Come, balances his DJ roots with his talents as a composer and arranger. His sets mix jazz, funk, and soul (he was once on Tru Thoughts) with broken-beat and drum 'n bass — a novel combination that keeps his sound fresh and dance-friendly without relying on thumping house beats. Sonotheque's mood lighting provide the perfect backdrop for Bonobo's mood music.
