Introducing Invisible System is a promising release; previous albums by Invisible System received fantastic reviews and accolades by the media such as from The Financial Times, The New York Times, World Music Central, FRoots and Songlines. Fans are in for a treat; some of Invisible System's best tracks feature on Introducing Invisible System, alongside brand new material.

Some of the collaborators include Justin Adams, also known for his work with Juju, Mahmoud Ahmed, Samuel Yirga, Tsedenia Gebre Markos and SintayehuDan Harper'Mimi' Zenebe.
