Bonobo - The Plug

[beyondartistic11]

WOW , I can just lay down on my bed and let this track just play while thinking of how beautiful life is! Bonobo for president !

[simal12345]

this is.....amazing.

[TheMrZarakai]

Franchement géniale cette musique ! Un grand bravo !

[JaMalleMail]

This song is super chillax. I'm digging it. Thanks.

[DubstepOverdose]

fucking hell i never had those annoying advertisements before the video started playing. suddenly they pop up at a lot of clips.. bye bye playing lists. wtf how hiddeous

[manuelo3]

This entire album can describe any emotion perfectly.

[heart4musicality]

This song makes me want to go on a road trip, across the country.

[rlpho]

Who knows the exact lyrics at 4:10.. "stolen away from me....." is what I make of it.. or....?

[BillC8mysoul]

I love bonobo.

[DnBnl]

man, this might just be my personal favorite song of all time... So beautiful and emotional, exactly like other people said in their comments. Amazing <33

[smdanish2010]

I have been searching for this since 2006. So glad finally found it!

[dolphinoela]

@smdanish2010 I'm glad it made you happy : ) Enjoy!

[shahmoro]

is it sad that sometimes i wish i could keep bonobo all to myself and not share him with the world?? i know someone out there has to agree... :P

[prettylightdrum540]

@shahmoro i do that with all my favorites... such as ....pinback..

[29once]

@shahmoro Yes, it is sad.

[funkdab]

"Didn't mean to tell you... But I guess you got to know..." Dial M for... MAGIC :)

[tsubodzuka]

The voice, it reminds me of...I don't know, the voice in the back of my head. I can't put my finger on it. It just feels like the voice that gives us hope, the spirit within us all. You can barely make out what it's saying, but you just know it's telling you that after tomorrow, no matter what happens, everything will be okay. I absolutely love sitting down getting lost and utterly mesmerized by it.

[YouthOobe]

music is a better place since he showed up. respect.

[MrSimpleFuc]

every song i find by bonobo i add to favorites before i even listen to it

[dolphinoela]

@MrSimpleFuc  : )

[misterdeadhead]

@MrSimpleFuc right? me too.

[cundionfire]

[dolphinoela]

@AgnostosStratioths Ελληνίδα κιόλας : ) Thanks, aderfe!

[AgnostosStratioths]

@dolphinoela hahahahaha! me zalises..se tipota den epesa mesa :P

[multivanul]

I've named my parrot Bonobo about three years ago, out of respect for this man and what he does with sounds. I like to ride my bycicle while listening to his creations and when i do a smile comes to my face without my knoledge.

Thank you Bonobo!

[otnomnoraa]

Horrible, HORRIBLE audio quality... How anyone can bear to listen to this beautiful song at such shoddy fidelity I'll never know...

[whitenelly667]

@otnomnoraa the quality is overwhelmed by the awesomeness, methinks the lady doth protest too much

[petnemarci]

10 years old music, but best today, best forever

[dryalways]

5 people are not at peace.

[sheepmanA]

SO PEACEFULL

[spliffice1989]

nice.

[mellowmusiclover27]

this is what a genius listens to while working BEAUTIFUL. PERFECT.

[vahagnzakaryan]

Going through the hardest part of my life, this is keeping me alive...... thank you Bonobo...

[1993blueberry]

@vahagnzakaryan ur not alone on that... Keep ur head up n tha music playin... lifes a bitch but atleast bonobo makes it bearable. Love.

[disnbeatz42]

Bonobo is a real artist !

[freedom0is0free]

@RAHdub1 So many people feel the exact same way... That's what happens when you do not follow the flock.. Bonobo is pure magic; if you are in Seattle on the 30th of Nov 2010, you should be at the Showbox.

[misterhulk]

@freedom0is0free was right in front of the drummer for that show, words cannot begin to describe! cheers

[thereaper2110]

this is emotionally exquisite

[zochovsky]

So excited to see Bonobo playing in London in December!!

[CheekyTaa]

@RAHdub1 this isnt party music man. listen to this in a relaxed envrioment.

[Ambinight]

Didn't mean to tell you

But i guess you got to know.

Stormed me away (?) from my backyard

And brought me down to shame.

[RetroSpecsify]

The category this music deprives from is "Music that southes the soul", you can feel the emotion that he is trying to portray. Only one word can express this ............ Beutiful .......

[dolphinoela]

@RetroSpecsify true : )

[Salvadorsalais]

@RetroSpecsify yup, if you could only spell BEAUTIFUL, the we would be in agreement.

[aniolku25]

@RetroSpecsify Ach, we are all international now anyways so we got your message :)

[superbsupper]

@RetroSpecsify

?"deprives from"?

[MalachiteR]

@RetroSpecsify lol, beautiful, yes.

[oaknairb]

@RetroSpecsify that makes no sense. music deprives from? wat

maybe you mean is derived from?

[OnatopaU]

I've really gotten into this artist a lot as of late...I catch them on the Buzzoutroom every now and then, on Groove Salad too. This is one song that moves me much like it does others here commenting. BTW - Simon' new album "Black Sands" is a great find too! Check it out. ~Thank You Senor for the wonderful music!

[RUDIE110]

Bonobo you have not only summed up my soul but refreshed my inner self as well as hundreds of beautiful human beings out there that have felt the emotions through your art. Thank you- you beautiful, intelligent person.

[dolphinoela]

@RUDIE110 You've expressed the essence of Bonobo's art so beautifully... I greet your intelligence...

[RUDIE110]

@dolphinoela Thank you, I also greet yours- it's definately all about tuning in.

Once you do tune in, it brings out beauty in any situation.

[dolphinoela]

@RUDIE110 ~~~~ thank you, Rudie : ) ~~~~~~~

[lollipops172]

@RUDIE110 you are the light of my life Rudie i love your mind and soul

[RUDIE110]

@lollipops172 lollipops, keep planting your radishes

[GruzdiX]

2;20 the best part.

[dan69girls420]

I wish more people could appreciate this kind of stuff. This is what I want to jam to at parties.

[KY42O]

I'm hooked already. I only found out about Bonobo the other night. Such ambient, yet powerful music. Peace and love from England.

[TheRabidMoths]

boss

[danceboi112]

Bonobo do us a favor. NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC. your stuff is one of the best

[elbocho19]

so great! painting late at night while blasting this .... it makes me be more creative for some reason. i envy bonobo, why couldn't i come up with this ?? guess we cant have it all in this life time huh? - el bocho

[boliviamericano]

the quantic mix of this song is really good too.

[abu3333]

@boliviamericano thanks mate..... i have an artist to recommend as well. Jon Hopkins. his music is very downtempo with a little electro

[skakadlo]

haaaaaaaah

[JessAtlas]

Where can I get more music like this?

[mikesfilminchonger]

what a stunning sound to chillout to. so ambient and mellow!!

[5FlyHigh05]

[huibart]

zo'n mooi melangolisch liedje.. nog een keer draaien maar!

[Nvelopmusic]

Incredible.

[sodaenserio]

[ChrisDorgan]

[MrTachouu]

[xBLOODBAFx]

[salvadorjcdias]

magically majestic track... the most beauty one

[Tla48k]

....... I really enjoy smokin' cannabis, to these tunes..

[cubozoaire]

without excess it's good for you...

[neoskosmos01]

hypnotizing

[deadmau5ARGURU]

ugh so smooth... hits the spot and fills it at the same time. superb.

[tritempest]

its such a smooth sensual song imma have a kid to this song

[jdburns87]

hahaha fuck yes!!!!

[mandokamine]

the lyrics are..

'i didnt mean to tell you, but i guess youve got to know'

the know comes out like noo, thats all. enjoi

[Geezee172]

floating to this one

[MrDrunknbass]

reminds me (for some reason) of a setting sun on a island.

[cskidz420]

lovely

[Princeofwindz]

whats that at the end. "i didn't mean to tell you but i guess you got to loss"

[QuantumSoul9999]

%-D

[813mrgoodwine206]

actually its how it makes you feel now what your doing to feel that way :))

[SuckeroftheYear]

love this album...

[k03ntje]

LOL. mrgoodwine. xD

[813mrgoodwine206]

it's like i took a pull on a glass vapors of fine green entered circulated thru my lungs and distributed elements to my blood stream pumped thru my heart and out to my body traveling to distal arms legs and head to release it's pleasure again and again.....your turn lol

[BigAlMendes]

same experience here ;)

[lumukanda]

Sir , judging from the way you just told that I assume you did.

[UJ96LFA]

What an incredible song. There´s a whole lot of human emotions in it. My favourite of the last summer in St Andrews, Scotland - it sums up all my feelings from that time. Great recollections.

[dolphinoela]

That's wonderful! It's a matter of frequencies...

Tune in and let yourself being shifted to other dimensions...

Jsem rada, ze se ozval nekdo z Cech! Byl to kdysi muj domov. I kdyz jsem Rekyne, urcite mam i neco ceskeho v DNA.

Mej se krasne!

☺

[energit771]

@dolphinoela jasně,že máš...:))))

[Nufalak]

@UJ96LFA Bonobo's song Kiara sums up my last summer :)

[switch1986]

tune!

listen & love...

[pursoup]

exelent shake of sounds .

just found out this artist and i would say he is prometting...

WHen i say unknown artist are a lot more inventiv than other famous one ,what a shame :s

( sry for my english )

keep up your great work ,from france.

[dolphinoela]

Imagine how many unknown gems are out there...

Merci beaucoup for the comment!

Cheers from Greece!

[dude123321321]

I agree, but it saddens me that there is so much music out there (the great stuff anyway) that we have'nt heard of yet or may never hear.

Efharisto for the sharing dude

From England

PEACE

[dolphinoela]

:-)) !

[PennStylez]

@dude123321321 Saddens you!? Thats the part I love about the search most. You can spend an entire life time experiencing new intriguing music even years after it's been released.

[anibal2sorto]

@dude123321321 That is so true :'(

[darkxinos]

How boring it would be if there was nothing left to discover..

[LordNu8]

I heard his song Transmission 94 part 1 and 2 on a Public broadcasting station, and had to buy his album alst year. This guy is extremely talented, I lvoe everything he makes. He should be a bigger name, seeing as though a lot of his music is played on television shows as background music.

[markdavies111]

choon. FACT.

[Snarftastickle]

This song will never. Never get old to me..

NEVER I TELL YOU!!

[chrgreg]

best chill out song. genial

[eliotness4]

the quantic mix of this is better in my opinion, still a quality tune tho.

[fraaaazzle]

Aaaaa, lovely.

[mehtz]

classic spliff tune

[Surfking9000]

I've to this so many times and its never failed to move me once. What an amazing work of art. :)

[dolphinoela]

Indeed!

[boneyelbow]

Simon Green is a legend.... perfect lazy dayz

[SirVetje]

this is song is just fantastic! thx for uploading :)

[dolphinoela]

you're very welcome! : ) I'm glad you enjoy it...

[gago444]

the beat man...the beat inside my head next to the ganja

[danderegil]

this tune from bonobo is fucking amazing.

[newyorkers11]

this song is amazing !

[desseo78]

merveilleux nuages..^^

[VoxAcies]

This is my favourite Bonobo song.

[kacha123abc]

extra !!!

[mericanpsycho]

i live at a punk house in oakland and i play this vinyl in between bands sometimes. so sick.

[Iamalockirl]

werd.

[BAneAtWatching]

What should is say. ,,

often thougt about writing a comment ,

Bonobo made the soundtrack for my live.

this is my al time favourite song

It sounds like you heard it before in a former live

love it

[BrysonCa]

"Bonobo made the soundtrack for my life."

This is exactly how I describe it to people. I drive around feeling like I'm in a movie. That could also be the drugs.

[GGDanJereL]

..ya on drugs, bonobo soungs are awesome :d

[vlod958]

I cant decide which I like better, this or the quantic mix...

[jimmyjay0]

The original!!

[vlod958]

But the drums in the Quantic mix.. so good

[zoharsis]

artists liek bonobo, nujabes, fat jon, , tsutchie...man all wonderful vibes that elevate people..just that feelign u get when u listen to their stuff!

[maniex91]

"Noon -Gry studyjne "

look !

[bansheeq]

noon is the best :)

[milan82ca]

speaks to the soul, this one does...

[scroadershow]

awesome tune

[bootybeats]

soooo relaxing (: so right

[Cheesy509]

It makes me feel at complete equilibrium to listen to Bonobo and any of his mixes. it also makes me happy to know so many people get as much joy from his music as i do.

[dolphinoela]

:-))

Makes me happy, too.

[jjsx88]

Didn't mean to tell you

But I guess you...... ?¿?¿

[MammothMole]

I didnt mean to tell you,

but I guess you haveto know..........

(K.B. I still love you so)

[CashewNinja]

I've been in love with this song ever since I bought it on the 2002 Ultimate Chill Out compilation, the one with a giant melting ice cube on the front.

Great tune for cruising down an empty stretch of highway late at night.

[dolphinoela]

CashewNinja, I've got goose bumps from your description...

I'm also addicted to this song...

[CashewNinja]

What, from the first paragraph or the second?

[dolphinoela]

I'd say both... but the latter evokes an extremely good feeling to me...

[trimm2]

This song rules.... bonobo's best song i think... too bad people these days listen to guys like lil' wayne who can't even talk normally

[MusicChannelStream]

i agree, lil wayne doesnt even make music, its trash.

[DominiCanaJC]

yess...lil wayne iis HORRIBLE...thiis iis reaaal musiic..

[ysius]

whats the fun of normal things?

[tomshoot]

Everything, cause they're just existing ...

[neb583]

That's why we go beyond and go with what's unusual to fit out of the typical crowds to belong in which we believe we think we belong ourselves.. But cannot define ourselves but let others answer the questions for us to earn.

Life~Nothing is truthfully normal.

[nmh2112]

@trimm2 i couldn't agree more

[felixartofmovement]

one epic song.

feel free without any weakness.

just live.

so dope.

[jjcatez]

Bonobo is the epitome of human capacity capability for GENIUS THROUGH DIVERSITY.

[85MEMZ]

perfect song to play as the sun goes down..

[MainStyla]

we ALWAYS do excactly the same! always this song when the joint is burning.

[Wallistism]

I hate to make you guys jealous, but this is what im doing:

Inhaling a joint

Perfect view of the beach

This song turned up all the way

Friends all around

Is there a better sunday?

[lictorain]

No there is not my friend.

[k2datrack]

Exactly...thats where i want to be man...this is the song right here

[x3y]

that's the way its meant to be x)

[jjcatez]

We are on the same page, My Brethren! The world is an illusion, and you can CHOOSE the view. AND a joint or Hooka is necessary for maximum comfort and FLOAT. BONOBO RULES ALL

[Ammy1101]

best music to smoke weed:D

[jonesjones12]

Man, exactly what I thought. This and nujabes.

[Adaviri]

Not really sure what the voice says, but I've always heard it like this:

Didn't mean to tell you,

But I guess you got to know,

Didn't mean to tell you,

But I guess you got to know,

Still no way from what I got to do,

Broke me down, what you did,

But you were never there,

But I guess you got to know.

[Panthera20tigris]

i love this song, it spaces me out!

turn it up loud and ur brain goes numb!

AWESOME! :D

[elmazote]

i respectfully disagree regarding one's brain going "numb".

perhaps ur (our) thoughts simply become less frantic...

best regards

[Panthera20tigris]

;) possibly yes that would be a better way of putting it. completely forgot i wrote that comment!

[ansaldo0180]

this goes to my FAVORITES :D

[funkdab]

didn't mean to tell you...

[briiiOche]

je voudrai savoir si cet artiste s'enregistre lui meme en train de jouer ou si c'est juste du mixage. merci de vos reponses. en tt cas c'est une musique ennivrante qui nous berce et qui nous emmenne loin , très loin d'ici ^^

[dolphinoela]

Simon Green alias Bonobo est un producteur, compositeur et DJ anglais, sur le label Ninja Tune.

À 18 ans, il partit pour Brighton où il fit ses débuts avec l'album Animal Magic en 2000. Avec cet album, non seulement autoproduit mais où il réalisa également la majeure partie de l'instrumental, il devint un des pionniers du new down tempo. Sa musique a vite su séduire les grands labels du genre, il signa un contrat chez Ninja Tune en 2001.
