Maribou State - Kingdoms In Colour - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Modern electronica masters Maribou State are back with their first new album since their game changing full-length sophomore LP 'Kingdoms In Colour' from 2018. The London based duo Chris Davids and Liam Ivory have been finessing the hugely anticipated new music over the past few years ahead of a highly ambitious campaign which will see their biggest ever live shows and with top charting aspirations across the globe. This album will cement Maribou State as one of the globe's most prominent electronic artists, a band in the vein of a Disclosure or Jamie xx who are renowned as being unmissable both as a live band and with every new music , and who also have an iconic visual identity. This album will become the definitive album within the more chilled-out orientated scene, a legacy record akin to the likes of Moby, Royksopp and AIR that still resonate years down the line. Album Tracks 1. Blackoak 2. Otherside 3. II Remember 4. All I Need 5. Dance on the World 6. Bloom 7. Peace Talk 8. Passing Clouds 9. Eko's 10. Rolling Stone

I want to reinforce this idea that you can be more than one thing, Green explains. It's that duality - of live artist and DJ, introspective composer and club-focussed selector - that sits at the heart of latest album 'Distance in Static', a record that is full of depth, detail and emotion; both beautiful and banging; quintessentially Bonobo, yet pushing beyond the contours of what a Bonobo album has traditionally been. A large portion of the record was created at Neil Young's legendary Broken Arrow Ranch studio in Woodside, California - an environment Green describes as deeply immersive and creatively transformative. A pivotal track to emerge from these Ranch sessions was the enchanting InchFire on the WaterInch, featuring Arooj Aftab, who travelled down from her NYC base to record what became a breakthrough moment during the album's creation. Evolving, almost accidentally, from a rough acoustic guitar loop recorded while Green was testing studio inputs one morning. Elsewhere, tracks like InchDriftInch and InchMe and YouInch perfectly encapsulate the album's club-focussed leanings, with both quickly emerging as firm fan favorites in Green's recent DJ sets. Buried within the 'Distance in Static' universe, there is also a sense that this record - and particularly the accompanying live tour - marks something quite monumental, too. It's a moment of transition, a celebration of Bonobo's 25 years, but also, perhaps his last record in the traditional sense complete with expansive guest features and a multi-year full live-band world tour.
