Product Details

Joshua Abrams has spent years building Natural Information Society into one of Chicago's most quietly essential experimental ensembles, anchoring their long-form improvisations around the guimbri, the Moroccan lute central to Gnawa healing ceremonies. Pairing them with Bitchin Bajas, the kosmische-leaning drone collective, makes a particular kind of sense; both groups treat repetition and patience as creative forces rather than constraints.

Totality! Automaginary! The in-studio convergence of Natural Information Society & Bitchin Bajas: two albums made over a decade of time, brought ye now together on CD. Congenial and organic, individual and ensemble inclinations incline in crafting new rhythm 'n gravity pieces. Invisible force meets ancient object: unique passages in time by two ensembles in shared & separate forever arcs.
