The North Borders

Bonobo

Electronic - Released March 22, 2013 | Ninja Tune

Distinctions The Qobuz Ideal Discography
On his 2013 release The North Borders, British producer Simon Green (aka Bonobo) continues along the organic-meets-electronic path that his 2010 release Black Sands followed, but this walk takes place as it's turning to dusk, and there are varying degrees of mist and chilliness along the way. Opener "First Fires" with Grey Reverend (singer/songwriter L.D. Brown) sounds like it could be quite warm, but it's entirely autumn-minded sweater music that wistfully wonders what to do with "faded dreams" as Green allows bits of glitchy sunlight to shine through his cloudy synth construction. "Emkay" is the clangs and echoes of a seaside port at night that wonderfully shuffles its way up to a lighthouse tune, then there's majestic songstress Erykah Badu wonderfully vibing ("We don't need no truth/Got plenty/Now it grows on trees") on "Heaven for the Sinner" over Bonobo's deep version of the broken beat. "Towers" suggests sleepy urban buildings in twilight with a vibraphone representing the little bits of life and light that will sparkle through the night, while "Don't Wait" is just before the dawn, as innocent chimes chase away the eerie things that lurk in the darkness. Still, it's not all drifting as the great "Know You" drops a jazzy breakbeat while the high stepper "Ten Tigers" struts to something sounding like an inverted handclap, although there's little here that will make sleeping cats jump off the couch. Fine song structure and an overall album flow that's nearly perfect are things Bonobo regulars might expect at this point, but his discography hasn’t offered up a rainy day soundtrack so fitting until this one, so hope the weatherman has bad news and plan on staying in. © David Jeffries /TiVo

North Of The Border

John Reischman

Country - Released January 1, 1993 | Rounder

The mandolin is so completely identified with folk music that North of the Border is often classified as a bluegrass or even a country album. That it is not is obvious from the first listen -- sometimes this is jazz that is informed by progressive bluegrass, sometimes bluegrass with jazzy overtones. This brilliant instrumental album swings wonderfully and sounds more akin to Django Reinhardt than anything in the typical bluegrass collection. In fact, on the opening cut, violinist David Balakrishnan's solo sounds distinctly like Stephane Grappelli, so much that you might wonder if you accidentally put in the wrong CD. True, "Big Bug" is recognizably bluegrass, though played at breathtaking speed and with a certain jazzy freedom. Other cuts draw from Mexican and Cuban music without ever losing the sonic signature of John Reischman's deft picking. The credit doesn't all go to him, though, as the ensemble that Reischman formed to make this music meshes flawlessly. If North of the Border convinces one jazz fan to listen to progressive bluegrass and one bluegrass fan to start listening to jazz, it has done something worth doing. © Richard Foss /TiVo
