We gave Bonobo's new single, "Me and You," its first spin on KRKQ during the Lunch Lounge today.

The track is the first preview of *Distance In Static*, a new Bonobo album arriving this September.

Bonobo has been one of the defining voices in downtempo and electronic music for more than two decades, and his music has influenced countless artists we've featured on Mountain Chill over the years.

If you've heard the new track, what do you think? Does it feel like classic Bonobo, or are you hearing something new in this chapter?

We'd love to hear your thoughts.
