Album Description

Having graduated from the Tru Thoughts label to Ninja Tune, Bonobo (real name Simon Green) has left behind a pretty healthy legacy. 'One Offs...Remixes & B-Sides' is a pretty self-explanatory title & the album sets out a whole heap of Bonobo's beats & bre

Album Details

Inbetween Bonobo's Critically-acclaimed Debut, "Animal Magic", and his First Album for Ninja Tune, "Dial M for Monkey", Tru Thoughts Decided to Release this Compilation of Hard-to-find Tracks from his Early 12"s, 7"s and Remixes (Especially after They Found Bootlegs of the Music Appearing). The Songs on this Album Capture Many Different Moods and Scenes, Evoking Wide Swathes of Differing Emotions and Musical Styles (For Example, Check the Italian Feel of `the Sicilian', Originally Released on Fly Casual, Or the Arabian Edge to the Monkey Man's Reworking of Amon Tobin's `4 Ton Mantis'). All the While Though, the Album Retains a Recognisable Musical Signature of Its Own: This Balance Between Broad-minded Eclecticism and a Well-defined Style Gives Some Indication as to Why Bonobo's Music, as Well as Being Critically Lauded, Has Been Licensed to Over 50 Compilation Albums Across the World, Covering a Variety of Music Scenes!

its bonobo.......2007-06-18

its bonobo it has to be good nuff said

Doesn't sound like B-Sides at all...........2004-03-04

I was surprised that only one man has reviewed this, 'cause it should get much more attention. And then by seeing 4 stars as a rating, I was even more surprised. My ratings for the songs:

1: (5/5) Sounds like there's a very happy man, whistling while walking through the fields, with the sun on his head. This is the song that really stays in your mind the first time you get to hear the album.
2: (5/5) Great chorus in this song, sounds a bit '50, but that's a good thing. The song stays in your head for a long time, at least in my head. Sounds like there are two people lying in the grass just enjoying the moment. Once you hear it, you understand what I mean.
3: (5/5) Nice song, vocals remind me of Moby. Very well build up, at the end everything fits together. This song gets me in the happy mood all the time.
4: (5/5) Can't describe it. I've tried, but I can't. But believe me, it's worth 5/5.
5: (4/5) A bit boring, but at the end the song gets better. Makes me think about a snake coming out of it's basket by hearing a flute.
6: (4/5) Good song, but it's nog a standout.
7: (4/5) When I close my eyes, I see a guy on a banjo walking through the streets, and while playing he gets the attention of the other people and bladibladibla everyone was happy. The song can get boring after a while.
8: (5/5) Heavy piano, gets you banging your head. Well done
9: (5/5) Tell me how you feel!!!! Hypnotising!
10: (5/5) Great combination of slow hitted chords on a harp with nice drum programming on the background and a trumpet-like (???) thing making the melody.
11: (5/5) Sounds like some man from the Middle East is pinging on his gitar with very nice beats on the background.

Conclusion: I think it's a CD you will listen to 'till it's broke. If you like Röyksopp or the latest CD's by Moby, you will certainly like this one. And not that this band is a copy of one of the named above, it really has it's own style. I can't get enough of it and I think it can get the same effect on many other people. Try it, buy it and, most importantly, like it! I think you will! The title doesn't sound very promising (referring to B-Sides), but when you have listened to it, you will hear what I mean! It's the besto Bonobo album available at the moment.

effortlessly captivating; Bonobo is on the short list.......2002-10-21

If Simon Green (Bonobo) made indie British rock he'd have been on a half dozen magazine covers by now. But, he dance music, downtempo fare at that; hardly the stuff of mass recognition. As for Remixes and B-sides, whether critical clamoring or a rumored label jump prompted it, fans who wisely snapped up his debut Animal Magic are given material far better than what that title may imply.

Led by a slow Dixie whistle and cello, shimmering electronics in the background, his spin on Pilote's "Turtle" may be the freshest chillout tune this year. A simple melody yet effortlessly catchy, it's an example to the hundreds of tunes flooding the market that, while politely programmed, fail to leave a discernable impression. Mechanical Me's "Beachy Head" nearly tops that, a melancholy ballad with captivating vocals processed like a 50s era record - the stuff of comps for sure (think Royksopp "Sparks") - but with an extra dusting of magic.

Other efforts prove similarly amicable; the keyboard pips of "Dismantling Frank," heavy drums anchoring "The Sicilian," and the crackling vinyl pops, horns, and castanets of sterling closer "Scuba," a foray into breakbeat. Soulful, sweeping soundscapes are explored throughout, a style some artists (cough, Moby, cough) merely attempt to emulate.

To be fair, remixes of "The Plug" and "Dinosaurs" offer a new spin but nothing startling, while a rework of Amon Tobin's over-indulgent "Fout Ton Mantis" provides the lone stumbling block. Still, there's an ocean of jazzbo/instrumental/downtempo ... bands playing similar material, with very few with musical ideas worth sharing. Bonobo is on the short list.

Quantic is the man behind the Latin slam.......2007-01-21

Great 27 songs over 2 hours for 20 bucks way better deal than the 5th exotic

in my opinion that was a weak album considering where he is today and he was only 20 or so when that dropped

Great album cant stop listening to it

if your familiar with songs like "prelude to happenings" from mishaps or "Tell it like you mean it" off of An Announcment, then you know what the latin slam is and most of the songs on this album are in that same energized latin jazz feel

buy this you will thank me I went out on the limb just because it was quantic

its got songs he didnt release on any previous albums*
remixes of his songs by him*
Other people remixing his songs*

if you listened to it you would think it was all quantic
