This was wayyyy better the second time I listened to it.

3.0 goodErwann S. STAFF | July 4th 19

Very soothing, and it feels organic as always with him. Not his most transcendent work however.

3.5 greatXenorazr | February 26th 17

Pleasant, easygoing and relaxed music that somehow struggles to captivate my interest as much as I feel it should. It seems like Bonobo are treading a line of discord between nature and electronica, which works in some ways from an atmospheric standpoint, and even shines with how it builds rhythm. But there's something distracting about how Migration attempts to bridge the gap between two opposing forces. It's admirable, but only arguably successful.

3.5 greatAlabaster Jones | January 16th 17

And Bonobo releases another winner, what a surprise. Simon Green has been at this type of thing for ages now, and while Migration doesn't have much in the way of originality or inventiveness, it does have some tantalizingly well done songwriting and a decent emotional range. The downtempo/nu jazz/future garage/trip-hop sound Green operates with sounds as smooth and crisp as ever, with an array of beautiful textures permeating the album. The songs with vocals on them are especially well done, and the album does contain a bit of a surprise in "Second Sun", a song both melancholy and gorgeous that comes dangerously close to bringing tears. It bears repeating that you're not going to hear much originality here, but what the album does, it does right, offering some of the most soothing and some of the most saddening downtempo electronic in the infancy of the new year.
