Basis Of Unity

There are numerous near-inaudible layers that haunt every track on Jairus Sharif's forthcoming album Basis of Unity. His decision to embed this whispered patina of faint percussion, voices, and other sounds at the innermost core of his compositions is most certainly unconventional, but this secret world percolating well below the surface ties to various ideas that are foundational to this ecstatic new release—especially the energetic capacity of human beings both throughout life and after it.
