Bonobo's 2003 album Dial 'M' for Money is a reissue featuring nine impeccably crafted tracks. Simon Green (Bonobo) delivers a concise, melodic record with a subtle, creeping undertone. Tracks like "Noctuary," "Flutter," and "D Song" blend sitar-funk, Rhodes, and Gamelan influences, while "Change Down" mixes double bass folk with cut-up drums, and "Pick Up" offers funk and flute. The album explores varied moods, from the pastoral "Nothing Owed" to the dubby "Something For Windy." With all instruments played and sampled by Green, the album showcases his consistent, skillful craftsmanship.
