JOSHUA ABRAMS NATURAL INFORMATION SOCIETY - Mandatory Reality 2 CD Eremite JAZZ

Description: Natural Information Society is an improvisational, spiritual ensemble assembled by avant-garde jazz bassist/composer Joshua Abrams, a veteran of Chicago's experimental music scene. The group's hypnotic sound fuses elements of minimalist classical, Krautrock, drone, free jazz, and numerous other genres, and their intimate performances are intense and exciting. Guided by Abrams' playing of the guimbri (a three-stringed bass lute originating in North Africa), the group's performances usually feature a revolving lineup. Natural Information was the title of Abrams' 2010 release on Eremite, and followed by the widely acclaimed Represencing in 2012, with cast, that included flutist Nicole Mitchell, guitarist Jeff Parker, and drummer Chad Taylor. Veteran avant jazz drummer/percussionist Hamid Drake began performing with the Society in 2015, joining them for performances and contributing to the double length Magnetoception. All three of the releases were credited to Joshua Abrams, with the group billed as Natural Information Society for live performances; the first recording properly credited to Natural Information Society was Automaginary, a collaboration with Chicago-based psych-drone group Bitchin Bajas, released by Drag City in 2015. The Society's Simultonality was released by Eremite Records in 2017. That same year between touring dates, Abrams released the solo Excavations 1 entitled on Feeding Tube Records. The following year, Abrams, drummer John Herndon, and guitarist Jeff Parker accompanied visiting Norwegian saxophonist Kjetil Moster on the fully improvised Ran Do issued by Clean Feed.
