BITCHIN BAJAS - Inland See

The successor to 2022's Bajascillators
glides easily into frame, but once there,
Inland See is deceptively immediate. It's
so dialed in, you hardly even feel how
present the music (and you the listener)

is. Time wharping's always been a resi-
dent magic for Bitchin Bajas, as is flow,

which is translucent like water here. That's
the Inland See vibe, unique unto itself.
In turn, each of the four songs here are
entirely within themselves, all together

forming an essential whole. The coinci-
sion'll cause yer breath to shorten, like

an exciting and non-fatal kind of exercise!

New freedoms, yet more molecular structure in each one.

With every successive Bitchin Bajas release, we see that the real key for them

is a sense of discovery, that tingle that comes when you feel something break-
ing through. The sky opening up. The stuff that fills this Inland See holds you

up powerfully, as if you're floating, saltwater or helium-wise-effervescent,
effortless, elemental.

An increasing sense of the Bajas' physicality-what's ephemeral, what's mer-
curial, and what sits inside us after it's all over. This music was mostly written

on the road. It's an unusual happening for Bitchin Bajas! They were open for
it, though-the landmarked Bajascillators kept them out there for a while,
and when inspiration struck, there they rolling. When it was time to render it
to tape and find the record there, they did the whole thing at Electrical Audio.
Recording all together in the room there lent a sense of space, which they
dug and captured as natural as possible. No reverb at all added after the fact.
Everything that's there was in system, directed through the interconnects with
cool hands. And once Inland See is flowing toward you, through the hi-fi, you
feel it all in the air.
