The British-born LA-based musician embarks on a European tour next month, after dropping surprise track 'ATK' earlier this year.

British musician, producer, and DJ, Bonobo, has released the captivating new single 'Defender'.

The latest drop follows on from the musician’s recent single ‘ATK’, arriving by surprise last month. According to Bonobo, real name Simon Green, the previous single was “aimed more at the dancefloor."

'Defender' has a more lighthearted feel to it - bouncy and uptempo beats front the piece. Strong but minimal vocals add to the track, with synth playing the most important part throughout.

Released via the artist’s label OUTLIER (in partnership with Ninja Tune), both of the artist's new released are set to be released as physical copies, on hand-stamped and numbered white label vinyl (limited to 1500 units). They will release later this month - you can pre-order your copy here.

Green will perform his final UK show for the year at Printworks in London on November 19. The musician will then kick off his European tour through to mid-December.
