10 iconic Bonobo moments
An under-the-radar master
His collaboration with Cyriak
When the video for Bonobo’s track ‘Cirrus’ dropped, it was hailed as a trippy masterpiece. It’s kaleidoscopic and production line aesthetics perfectly tied in with the song’s clinking rhythms to create the audio-visual equivalent of one big, slick machine. In fact, that’s exactly what happens as unique archival footage is turned into literal animations of pistons and robots. British artist Cyriak was behind the animation, and gave the song a new identity. Now we can’t help but think of whirring machines when listening to this iconic track.
