The bonobo ( /bəˈnoʊboʊ/ or /ˈbɒnəboʊ/), Pan paniscus, previously called the pygmy chimpanzee and less often, the dwarf or gracile chimpanzee, is a great ape and one of the two species making up the genus Pan; the other is Pan troglodytes, or the common chimpanzee. Although the name "chimpanzee" is sometimes used to refer to both species together, it is usually understood as referring to the common chimpanzee, while Pan paniscus is usually referred to as the bonobo. It is distinguished by relatively long legs, pink lips, dark face and tail-tuft through adulthood, and parted long hair on its head. The bonobo is found in a 500,000 km2 (190,000 sq mi) area of the Congo Basin in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central Africa. The species is omnivorous and inhabits primary and secondary forests, including seasonally inundated swamp forests.
The bonobo is popularly known for its high levels of sexual behavior. Sex functions in conflict appeasement, affection, social status, excitement, and stress reduction. It occurs in virtually all partner combinations and in a variety of positions. This is a factor in the lower levels of aggression seen in the bonobo when compared to the common chimpanzee and other apes. Bonobos are perceived to be matriarchal; females tend to collectively dominate males by forming alliances and use sexuality to control males. A male's rank in the social hierarchy is often determined by his mother's rank.
Nicolas Jaar is an American-Chilean musician. He is currently studying comparative literature at Brown University, Rhode Island. Jaar is also the owner and founder of his own record label and art house Clown & Sunset.
Jaar was born in New York on January 10, 1990 to Alfredo Jaar and Evelyne Maynard and moved to his father’s native Chile when he was two. He and his family lived there for six years before moving back to New York. Jaar met Soul Keita and Nikita Quasim on a school trip through the Sonora desert in Mexico. The three bonded over music and began swapping beats and projects online. In 2009, Jaar started Clown & Sunset as a way to legitimize their music.
Jaar’s music is ruminative and emotional (he calls it “blue-wave”), drawing inspiration from fellow-Chilean Ricardo Villalobos and minimal techno. Most of Jaar’s compositions reside at 100 BPM or lower, far lower than the techno/house standards of 120-130 BPM. “I’m going to keep taking the beats even slower,” he says in an interview with Resident Advisor, “More unintentional things happen between the beats.” He released his debut album, Space Is Only Noise in January 2011 to critical acclaim, receiving a score of 8.4 “Best New Music” from Pitchfork and four stars from The Guardian. It was ranked #1 album of the year by Resident Advisor, Mixmag, Crack Mag, #2 by DJ Mag and #20 by Pitchfork. His track "Don't Break My Love" also received Best New Music by Pitchfork in late 2011. Jaar toured the album with a full band, combining sounds from his laptop with a guitarist, drummer, and saxophonist.
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
Es gibt Leute, die schwärmen für Bonobos,
die wollten wir wären wie sie.
Also entweder sind die nymphoman
oder die haben keine Phantasie.
Falls Sie nicht wissen, was Bonobos sind:
Das sind diese friedlichen Affen.
Denen gelingt es ihre Probleme
mit Sex aus der Welt zu schaffen.
Also mir wäre das zu langweilig
immer nur rumzuficken.
Ich find's interessanter, wenn Schalke und Dortmund
gegeneinander kicken.
Und ich fände es auch geschmacklos,
jetzt mal rein ästhetisch geseh'n:
Angela Merkel und Franz Müntefering
oder fänden Sie das schön?
ohoo...
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
Oder angenommen ein Unfall:
Nichts Ernstes, sie woll'n sich beschwer'n.
Und der andere macht die Autotür auf
und fragt: Wie hätten sie's gern?
Oder bei Steuerproblemen:
Mal kurz zum Finanzamt rüber.
Und die Beamten fragen: Gleich im steh'n?
oder liegen Sie dabei lieber?
ohoo...
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
Und dann weltpolitisch. Auaka!
Da die Bonobos nachzuäffen.
Ich mal' mir das so aus,
wenn die Kulturen aufeinander treffen:
Da sagt die Frau von Bush:
Schorsch, hör' auf zu nuscheln.
Sag es laut! Und Bush sagt: Ja,
ich will mit einem Moslem kuscheln.
oh, no, no...
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
Ja, besser als Mord und Totschlag,
werden viele dagegenhalten.
Doch wäre es nicht reizvoll,
Alternativen zu entfalten?
Es gibt soviel zwischen Liebe und Hass,
zwischen Zärtlichsein und Meucheln
und die wenigsten haben die Absicht,
die Nachbarn überall zu streicheln.
Also ich will kein Bonobo werden,
das wär' mir zu monoton.
Wir sollten versuchen Menschen zu werden,
denn Affen sind wir ja schon.
ohoo...
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
nein, nein, nein...
No, no, no, ich will kein Bonobo...
Ich will kein Bonobo sein, nein, nein, nein.
They walk in the sky
So near and so high
They're stopping for none
And when the day's done
They agree that the sea
Is the best place to be
Wondrously free
They live happily
They know from the past
Life simply doesn't last
So they live for today
For tomorrow they may
Not be able to walk in the skies
Sun slips into horizon
Moon reaches for the stars
Music is the healer
No matter who you are
No matter who you are...

The Clock Struck Midnight
And Through My Sleeping
I Heard A Tapping At My Door
I Looked But Nothing Lay In The Darkness
And So I Turned Inside Once More
To My Amazement
There Stood A Raven
Whose Shadow Hung Above My Door
Then Through The Silence
It Spoke The One Word
That I Shall Hear For Evermore
Quoth The Raven, Nevermore
Thus Quoth The Raven
Nevermore
And Still The Raven
Remains In My Room
No Matter How Much I Implore
No Words Can Soothe Him
No Prayer Remove Him
And I Must Hear For Evermore
Quoth The Raven, Nevermore
Thus Quoth The Raven
Weather is in a style

There comes a time in somewhere new
A time when trueborns really show
Can you depend on things to help when your in need
Everybody got problems of they own
Look all the silver seasonin shown

If You Stayed Over
by Bonobo
(Feat. Fink)
And if it's on,
It's on for good, yeah...
'Cause when it's gone,
It's gone for good...
Let me tell you...
And if you stayed over,
You know we would,
If we could
Put it back together,
We could be... fine...
If I breathe in the future,
Breathe out the past, yeah...
Savour this moment
As long as it lasts...
Let me tell you...
Put it back...
If you stayed over
I'd make it so sweet,
I'll make you remember, baby,
From your head to your feet...
And if you go now, then
You'll never know
How it could...
Make it good...
Journey set sail was to leave
Cause I'm only birds & bees
Lose and news and all things be
Sunlight garden low red blossoms
Moon tides of the sea
When struggling for a magic grain
We throw our life to the winds like rain
For goodness sake
Spare your failings and take the ability
To strengthen
No spirit can stimulate all minds
Blossoms of days to come
Blossoms of days to come
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Spirit finds fresh morning and the dew
Of precious things
Hope is a phoenix building wings to fly
And what we wish shall be
Like a breathe of fresh air
Safe and secret powers
That no love can spare
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul
Move away from your western guns
Travel towards eastern suns
Far above all earthly goals
A pledge for creation's soul 2x
Far above all earthly goals
well we can’t change the world
we sure can change the way we live
we can’t only take
also have to learn to give
people corrupt
’cause they don’t understand
there’s a book of truths
and a book of lies
think with your heart
read between the lines
things aren’t always how they seem
we got to make the best of it
eye for an eye
tooth for a tooth
sometimes we’re blind
we can still see the truth
sometimes we’re lost
sometimes we’re blind
think with your heart
How do you see it? The dreams gone
Faded fires, moving on
Why do you need it? the waves come
Over you, to undertow
Honestly I canât believe itâs burning again
Like the first fire
Run from the fences, you donât have to pretend
In the first fire
And if you can find it, donât let go
Hold it tight, keep it close
Donât even fight it, the leaves fall
Over me, for every blow
Honestly, I canât believe itâs burning again
Like the first fires
Run from fences, you donât have to pretend
And all the memories are calling my name
For the first fire
Honestly, I canât believe itâs burning again
Like the first fires
Like the first fires
Honestly, I canât believe itâs burning again
Honestly, I canât believe itâs burning again
Verse 1
You'll never know
Only my soul
Bares the truth
Cares for you
Only my soul
And you'll never see
Stays here with me
Overload, nothing more
Only my soul
Knew you were ready
Because you had no answers for me
Take me back to where love grows
We don't need no truth, got planted now
It grows on trees
I don't let it... or 8 side loose
There's no saint and there's no sinner
Done more dirt than these
I know that we can do more right that these
I need to find a paradise for me
We just ask about
God is ready, but you don't wanna
No one tell me, heaven's waiting
For the sinner,
It's steady waiting
World keeps turning
Shine on light
Shine all time
Heaven's waiting, for the sinners
We just ask about
God is ready, but you don't wanna
No one tell me, heaven's waiting
For the sinner,
It's steady waiting
We just ask about
God is ready, but you don't wanna
No one tell me, heaven's waiting
For the sinner,
Hands up
I got my eyes facing down
I'll show you where my tears come down
Slowly down
Hands up
I got my eyes facing down
I shudder when my tears come down
So slow down
So slow down
Suddenly my tears come down
Slowly down
Slowly down
So slowly down
Hands up I got my eyes facing down
I'll show you where my tears come down
Slowly down
Hands up I got my eyes facing down
I shudder when my tears come down
So slowly down
A night train.
Midnight.
Bags gathered round my feet.
Possessions,
some lessened,
to carry with me.
Heavy
and soothing.
Like a gentle symphony.
I rest my
head right
back upon my seat.
It's hard and
cold, though,
the best thing for me.
This train is
movin'
but my heart is stationary.
Seasons change,
it will never be the same.
I'm hopin' I won't stay the same.
Reasons strange.
Why we all must play these games?
I left it
with you,
a note that was discreet.
I made sure
I put it
upon the cellar door.
It's hanging,
hoping,
will you read it while I weep?
Last time,
the last time,
it flickers through me.
So vivid
it rushes
from my head down to my feet.
We're laughing,
joking,
through a dance to my defeat.
Seasons change,
it will never be the same.
I'm hopin' I won't stay the same.
Reasons strange.
You were here for a while
You come to me docile
Tried to make sense of this
By the time that I expressed
That I had felt helpless
You had turned away from me
And in this silence
You're raising towers
I'm walking over
And in this burning
The kindness searching
I'm walking over
And in this silence
You're raising towers
I'm walking over
You were gone days and nights
Empty space, there's no light
Tried to find peace in this
Looking at those times
Through all the years you lied
So you hide away from me
And in this silence
You're raising towers
I'm walking over
And in this burning
The kindness searching
I'm walking over
And in this silence
You're raising towers
I know she said,
That I don't need her,
cause everytime I call,
she's sitting sweeter,
I know she said,
to get near her,
but I'm feeling cold,
and I must leave her.
Sat down here with my head hung down
and I just seem to find
a bit of peace,
a bit of love,
a bit of something left behind.
Sat down here best intentions,
nothing said, nothing lied,
a bit of peace,
a bit of love,
a bit of something left inside.
And my heart's content,
I say that to please her,
happiness is on her face,
it's the mind that greets her,
only my disgrace,
to admit I need her,
but we all fall from grace,
dust me down and keep her.
Sat down here with my head hung down
and I just seem to find
a bit of peace,
a bit love,
a bit of something left behind.
Sat down here best intentions,
nothing said, nothing lied,
a bit of peace,
a bit of love,
a bit of something left inside.
We shant go on, in this way.
Cause we can't go on living this way.
Cause we can't go on living this way.
(We can't go on...)

Love is a song that never ends
Life may be swift and fleeting
Hope may die yet love's beautiful music
Comes each day like the dawn
Love is a song that never ends
Like the voice of a heavenly choir
