    The trio were always capable of more than mere spaced-out jams, but these four tracks organize all the bliss, curiosity, darkness, and contemplation Bitchin Bajas have shown in the past into something deeply considered and perfectly designed.

    These four sidelong pieces, buttressed by a trio of percussive friends, are gentle journeys into the great beyond. [Nov 2022, p.87]

    They're not best known for melodicism, but in a funny way the slow-blooming compositions here are full of charming, playful melody, detailed in exotic colours. [Nov 2022, p.25]

    With Bajascillators the group have achieved master mood shift status, producing a work that is simultaneously dreamy and psychedelically transportive. [Oct 2022, p.38]

    Bitchin Bajas’ music is about keeping on, and Bajasicllators does that as well as anything in their discography.

    It’s a nice way to spend three-quarters of an hour, even if you don’t have much to say about it afterwards.
