Track of the Week - Bonobo featuring Bajka, Nightlite
Featuring Bajka, it appears, is the way to my heart, and Bonobo’s done a bang-up job of framing that gorgeous paradox of a voice - weathered, almost wizened, yet indescribably rich.

The trick here is that, for all the relaxed self-assurance of the bass and percussion, the momentum derives entirely from keyboard and strings. Rolling forward, soaring up, circling back: a hypnotic setting for Bajka’s cracked purr.
