For fans of: mesmerizing pieces that hint at eternity

What they say: Natural Information Society’s latest album, Since Time Is Gravity, is a suite of vivid snapshots of eternity, a concept that should be oxymoronic but which feels completely natural in Abrams’ hands. - Pitchfork

What we say: Joshua Abrams returns with his large ensemble comprising pivotal members of the Chicago new jazz scene. Here again, he's working in a kind of new modal jazz, equally inspired by Charles Mingus' Ah Um as it is Steve Reich's Music for 18 Musicians. Shifting, shimmering repetitive structures give way to firey saxophone, percussion and keys workouts. - Jefferson
