I have been a fan since 2013. but with the whole migration album I have a personal warm memories. it was October, 2021. early hours of a rainy Saturday, my brother and I were lucky to find a cafe opened in this hour and sat down by a large window overseeing the pouring rain with hot coffees. we were about to bid farewells, I had a plain ticket in my bag's pocket. we hadn't seen each other for a year, separated by the covid outbreak, and then were to say goodbye again. as we sat down, the bonobo's migration started playing in the café, we sat through the whole album, from top to bottom and I was about to cry several times. I didn't know then that the war would start and we wouldn't see each other for a foreseeable future again. when I play migration in my headphones I always think about that early cold morning that now feels as another life.

[@captainilomilo]

Fuck. I just closed my eyes and listened to this entire album from beginning to end. I was in ecstasy for the entirety of it. Some people in the comments wrote that it was lacking in emotion, I don't understand it. I think this is the most emotional thing he has done yet. I am literally mesmerised. Wow. Thank you Bonobo for giving me the chance to experience this.

[@RCmies]

People are close minded, and they can't pick up the new emotions that this music evokes. They're in it for the emotion they felt when they first heard Bonobo's music, be it the Black Sands album, North Borders or whatever. People want to feel some sort of nostalgia, and when they can't hear that it loses meaning to them. I discovered Bonobo through the North Borders album. I was listening the whole album at a holiday resort, laying on a beach and just listening to the music. Migration, this one I listened to during the winter. In my opinion the two albums have completely different atmosphere, but there's definitely no less emotion in one or the other, at least not in my opinion.

[@barbarakucharova144]

Don't think that close minded people would listen Bonobo :P

[@chadfranklin47]

I cried the first time I listened to it.

[@It-b-Blair]

This is absolutely emotional. Everything this man produces is gold. I’m so grateful he can associate with so many other talented musicians to produce with. Dinosaurs, live sessions, black sands, everything....

[@w.smialy934]

Dear god it's perfect

One of the best song on planet earth for sure! This song is an emotional journey

It's like you captured and bottled childhood amazement. As always, Bonobo delivers some of the most beautiful music I've ever had the pleasure of listening to...

[@ShaneStapler]

its a bottle of beauty

[@maxgregorycompositions6216]

Totally accurate

[@biancadallaire379]

thank you to let beautiful images

[@kid.dynamite4918]

Right on

[@anastasiiaveremiichyk7232]

true story man

[@nellachar]

The sustained Fs that ring through at 3:00 & 4:00 hit me in the feels big time. Every time. How is it that a certain sequence or combination of notes can do that to humans? No words spoken, just sounds. It's fucked and it's beautiful.

[@victoriagaither]

Shaolin I feel that also!

[@ilariamaruccia2573]

Same way as any object resonates to certain frequencies, I'm sure the human body does not escape the physics of sound :) Love it too.

[@lifecamerakaran]

Will never forget hearing this at Groove on the Grass in Dubai, 2018. I was at the back of the crowd when Bonobo and his band opened the concert with this. My friends were in the front but I didn't want to walk all the way over, I just stood where I was taking it all in.

[@Lauther85]

PERFECTION, it's like a soft blanket envolving my ears

[@lapirk]

Goosebumps every single time I listen to Simon's masterpieces. Thank you for your talent sir

[@TransportivMusic]

Agree, bought the double lp of migration. So worth it!

[@donniedarkorequiem22]

This still brings me to tears and fills me hope for me to survive this world and find a little peace.

[@yuvaanchhabra]

You actually don't listen to Bonobo. You give your all-in to that feeling!! It's different!!

[@boomboomlacarotte]

Such a peaceful state of mind listenning to this, Bonobo is one of a kind

[@ArthurBaum]

I was flying over the Andes a couple of months ago and our plane started to get into really nerve wrecking turbulences. So much in fact that the hull of the plane started to bend, the girl next to me grabbed my hand and an old lady in front of me started to pray. I never ever felt so terrified. Terrible screaming through the whole plane. And we, the passengers, thought: Well, that's it. My first reaction was to reach for my headphones, open Spotify and play this exact song because it seemed right to give MIGRATION the chance be the last song I'll ever hear. Obviously I'm still alive, turbulences over the Andes are perfectly normal and modern plane hulls are built to withstand heavy turbulences. In fact, there wasn't a single casualty because of turbulences in the last 40 years. Nevermind, what was I going to say? Oh yeah, the song literally pushed my shit back into me when I was in agony. Thanks, Bonobo!

[@Alfados85]

What happened to you and the girl?

[@ArthurBaum]

@@Alfados85 We lived happily ever after.

[@ale9507]

Very well documented. Glad it ended happily. Love anecdotes like these!

[@meris8486]

A similar thing happened to me, but I reached for chicken nuggets instead of my headphones.

[@AlexandrosFilms]

Nice story! Can imagine the girl trying to talk to you in the heat of the moment and you where like headbanging to the beat.

[@sharki256]

It has made me think about when I have made difficult but necessary decisions and I think about how complicated those moments were.

[@wolffie3579]

This song reminds me of April showers and nights spent reading my favorite books it's so calming.

[@marciet6478]

They opened with this song when I saw them in concert last month. Couldn't have been more perfect. Absolutely divine.

[@sophrolutiongabrielaleuter8914]

His vibes just make me feel connectet with ALL of you listening ! He's got it all right !

[@lori786]

I was looking for my "favorite" track of the album but now I know that that's impossible. All the tracks are perfect, all of them are beautiful. I couldn't choose one. What an album!

[@saxoldun]

either way, this is the perfec intro

[@rhythm9474]

Good taste

[@alexanderivory-brown118]

I definitely have favorites but this album is still amazing. Migration, Figures, Outlier, Bambro Koyo Ganda, and Kerala are my favorites from the Migration album.

[@captain_the_puggy8486]

This track has been set as the alarm on my phone in the morning for the past 9 months. I still love it

[@blackmane1999]

How can you wake to something so soothing lol!

[@mcyrenne14]

Maybe I should change from Terrapin to this one then :)

[@dejanbaric3606]

the sound of love! the sound of freedom! beautiful!

[@scarslikereminders]

Bonobo delivers yet another stunning composition for the masses. And I must say, this is truly a delight to the senses.

[@winsome-phool]

I think this is how it would feel to swim in the sea

[@andersonm5889]

you've never been to the sea?

[@winsome-phool]

The Chief Of The Kief I thought the more obvious assumption people would make from this comment was that I don't know how to swim

[@andersonm5889]

Ha, sorry. You should learn. A really easy way to do it is to just straighten your body when you're in the water, facing downwards, and it should float by itself. You take a deep breath and your air-filled lungs should make it easier to float. Then you just relax. After you master that you can start moving your limbs like a dog would, in order to learn the basic dog paddle. The main thing is to know that as long as you've got air in your lungs and you're body is still and relaxed, you will always float without effort. Don't wait too long. My grandmother is almost 90 years old and she regrets every chance she got to learn how to swim, or to ride a bike, and other tiny things that she never learned. Simple things like that which you and I would take for granted are the things she regrets not learning the most.

[@winsome-phool]

The Chief Of The Kief You're too kind. I will keep that in mind. Thanks :)

[@mqsism]

Swimming is awesome, I would really get into it if I was you. You know it feels exactly like this song :)

[@chelsiepheenix5036]

after listening to this I remember the beauty in humanity

[@nozomu8686]

Just don't forget the bad part

[@raglansleeves1965]

This album is amazing, I feel like hiking through a forest and just listening to this album for hours.

[@anastasiiaveremiichyk7232]

yes a forest indeed

[@deeztacos6336]

Angel Casarez for me this song invokes an idea of some sort of travel. Going on an adventure to a place one has never been to.

[@condimentking414]

I love this track and this album! One of the truly greats of 2017. Regarding the self-titled track ("Migration"), I always listen to it along with "Midnight" by Coldplay 'cos... you know... Jon Hopkins' magic is right there.

[@Jellybeantiger]

I just bought this on vinyl,lovely,saw the cover in a big book/record store here in Melbourne,Australia and was intrigued,even told the bloke behind the counter to play a track from you tube so the whole store was listening to it. Sold and now subscribed.
