After BLACK SANDS, it'd be difficult for Bonobo to maintain his reputation, but THE NORTH BORDERS manages to do it. Sure, it's not as stunning as his previous album, but that's a pretty high bar. Instead, Bonobo branches out in other directions, like the mellow, folk-esque "First Fires" or the garage of "Emkay," or the more straight-up house of "Cirrus." His multi-instrumentation stays wholly intact, despite these new ventures, helping to fill out the sound, as with the plucked strings of "Saphhire" or the . He tries out a heavier bass with "Jets" or the typewriter rhythm on "Ten Tigers." Sure, a few of the tracks aren't as compelling-- "Know You," for instance sounds like a reprise of "Emkay" -- but it's still a pleasant listen, especially once the chopped-up chorus starts in. Even though Andreya Triana doesn't appear here, she's ably replaced by Erykah Badu, who makes "Heaven For The Sinner" appropriately angelic. Szjerdene, as well, adds some soul to "Towers," The darkly sad "Pieces" closes the album on a good note. For its faults, it holds up.
