A classic repressed to coincide with the new album "Perseverance Flow" (2025)! NATURAL INFORMATION SOCIETY, led by composer, bassist and improviser JOSHUA ABRAMS, who has contributed to Chicago's experimental and improvised music scene through projects ranging from TORTOISE and the THRILL JOCKEY orbit to THE ROOTS. A masterful live album capturing a 75-minute performance at the essential London venue "Cafe OTO," recorded with plenty of room ambience in the mix. Rhythms that repeat while shifting intricately with clear intent, and veteran EVAN PARKER's unhurried soprano sax responding with total focus to those shifts. Each part reinforces the others as the music climbs ever higher. A stunning record that conveys every ounce of the tension in the room. Recommended! (Original Japanese text by Akie)
