Following collaborations with Bonnie Prince Billy, Natural Information Society, and filmmaker Olivia Wyatt, as well as a short album titled Transporteur, Bajas Fresh is the second Drag City-issued double album from Chicago's cosmic drone unit Bitchin Bajas, after 2014's self-titled effort. This format seems to work best for the Bajas, as they're able to stretch out and create their most unencumbered material. Bajas Fresh melds electronic and organic instruments more thoroughly than their past works, with percussion making a greater presence this time around. While earlier releases such as Krausened occasionally featured motorik rhythms courtesy of a drum machine, this one features live drums providing a calm but insistent heartbeat on a few pieces. "Jammu" begins with blinking arpeggios and harmonium-like drone, eventually developing a fast, shimmering bass pulse and fluttering woodwinds, with snare drums providing a soft but exciting rush closer to the track's end. "Yonaguni" is much more fluid, warped, and free, with crashing, tumbling jazz drums and tape-manipulated bells and shakers providing a heady aura for the smoldering guitars and billowing flutes. Significantly more direct is "Circles on Circles," an aural laser light show filled with prismatic arpeggios, vast synth sweeps, and an overwhelming sense of joy and optimism. Much more subdued, but no less enlightened, is the Bajas' cavernous cover of Sun Ra's "Angels and Demons at Play," which features dripping, echoing percussion and an ethereal flute melody gradually underscored by a slowly rising drone. The group reaches a supreme state of Zen on "2303," a solemn meditation that lasts as long as its title. Bajas Fresh is a masterful union of the group's jazz, Krautrock, and new age inspirations, and another rewarding chapter in their saga. ~ Paul Simpson

商品の紹介

Magnet - "Bitchin Bajas' plush, but not too polished layers of keyboards and woodwinds bridge the gap between analog-age ambient music, backcountry krautrock and meditative cosmic jazz." Paste (magazine) - "[A] dynamic set of patterned tones, docile drones and burbling dervishes that prove there is real momentum to be found in meditative music." Pitchfork (Website) - "BAJAS FRESH is the group's most diverse and ambitious record so far....Part of that diversity comes from wider instrumentation..."
