A short but sweet sampler for Bonobo’s third album, Days To Come, due out later this year. “Nightlite” is a delicate samba wrapped in morose chords that display Bajka’s singing perfectly. Subtle, bitter-sweet and full of summer memories. “Recurring” blends the familiar and unfamiliar in a some headnodding vibes, the forceful bass and drums combo making sure the head keeps-a-nodding, regardless. “If You Stayed Over” pairs Bonobo with fellow artist Fink for a mellow grown-up pop song that’s heart is firmly wrapped in nostalgia. The album’s got a lot to live upto based on what’s on display here.
