“Sign Spinners”

From Natural Information Society and Bitchin Bajas’ Autoimaginary

DRAG CITY

Liner notes: Spectral keyboards, hypnotic bass lines, and lighter-than-air percussion make for a spooky-fun instrumental.

Behind the music: Joshua Abrams launched Natural Information Society to showcase the guimbri, an African lute. Cooper Crain started Bitchin Bajas as a low-key alternative to his techno band Cave.

Check it out if you like: The Doors’ “Riders on the Storm” (minus Jim Morrison).
