"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez

"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

Throughout his career Simon Green (bka Bonobo) has managed to stay close to his roots in downtempo. With Black Sands he continued to increase his use of live instrumentation. Nylon stringed guitars, Fender Rhodes, and electric bass pop up on many of the tracks. It's almost as if his production tools slowly change into a live jazz combo over the course of the album. This culminates in the album closing title track, an awesome multi-instrumental jam that floats by at a waltz's pace. There's a lot more to go through before you get there though. Tracks like "Kiara" and "Eyes Down" feature dubstep inspired production while "Kong" seems to take a look back at Bonobo's previous material. Its chopped breaks and sample based inspirations harking back to the golden age of Ninja Tune. He teams up with Andreya Triana for vocals on a few tracks as well for some HGSOB moments. More quality downtempo from one of the genre's best.
- ReVINYL edition pressed on 100% recycled vinyl material
- eco colored vinyl (please note: eco-mix vinyl is a more environmentally friendly mix of vinyl colors that reduces waste, each copy will look different)
- printed inner sleeves
- limited edition
- original release year: 2010
- music label: Ninja Tune 2026
