Review

Getting lost in the world of "Fragments" is a wild ride, with Bonobo's genius blend of electronic and organic elements taking center stage. This album is all about the vibe, and Simon Green's got it down pat, bringing together an incredible lineup of collaborators like Jamila Woods, Joji, and Jordan Rakei to create something truly special. The music is a fusion of opposites, with modular synthesizers meeting violin strings in a beautiful clash of sound. "Fragments" is an album that's all about atmosphere and texture, drawing you in with its introspective energy. It's the kind of record that makes you want to move your body and explore your emotions at the same time.

The lead single "Rosewood" was just the beginning, setting the stage for a musical journey that's both expansive and intimate. Bonobo's experimentation with new sounds and themes pays off in a big way, resulting in an album that's uniquely cohesive and impactful. With "Fragments", Bonobo shows off his ability to craft music that's not only creative and innovative but also resonates on a deeper level. The album's emotional intensity is palpable throughout, making it a standout release in his discography. It's clear that Bonobo's creative evolution is still in full swing, and "Fragments" is the perfect example of what happens when he pushes the boundaries of his sound. - Cameron
