Joshua Abrams made his name playing the double bass on the same exploratory
Chicago scene that has spawned the likes of Tortoise, Hamid Drake and Matana
Roberts. Here, however, he switches to the guimbri (a three-string lute
associated with the Gnawa musicians of Saharan Africa) in a project that mixes
spiritual jazz, spiky post-rock and Terry Riley-inspired systems music. Maroon
Dune is a hypnotic groove in a 10/4 rhythm; Sideways Fall sounds like Can’s
Jaki Liebezeit jamming with Philip Glass; while the closing track, 2128½, is a
pulsating jazz waltz that recalls Alice Coltrane, with tenorist Ari Brown in
the Pharoah Sanders role. What holds everything together, however, is the
spectral presence of Africa – with Abrams’ goatskin-covered guimbri bouncing
around the mix, sharing sonic space with resonator bells, bow harps and thumb
pianos. A compelling Afro-futurist voyage.
