"The North Borders" is the fifth studio album by British electronic musician Bonobo (Simon Green), released on April 1, 2013, via Ninja Tune. The album follows his critically acclaimed Black Sands (2010) and continues his signature blend of downtempo, trip-hop, and electronic jazz-infused production.

The album refines Bonobo’s organic-meets-electronic aesthetic, weaving together intricate rhythms, lush instrumentation, and atmospheric textures. It introduces a more subdued, refined sound compared to Black Sands, with a focus on subtle percussion and deep grooves.
