FIS presents From Patterns To Details, his second full length release. Natural patterns of organic life make the most efficient use of space and surface area and in permaculture design one observes natural patterns in a landscape and plans details accordingly. Taking a self-occurring pattern like the veins of a leaf, contour lines, or the spirals of water and letting that guide interactions with the surface of the earth. The ethos is to work with natural flow and processes rather than to impose. Mirroring this idea, From Patterns To Details draws from the sense of a deeper underlying order. It sees continuity between environment and individual, continuity between external bodies and the internal emotional landscapes that music can communicate beyond the affordances of language. The album embraces technology as something that is not in conflict with the organic processes of nature. Technology is treated as life in a different state. Human beings are gardens in a different state; all temporary forms of the same thing. From Patterns To Details imagines states of alignment with all and harmonious design, a complete integration between personal and external systems whether organic or technological. FIS composes physical, spirited, exploratory electronic music inspired in part by his work as a permaculture designer. Initially developing his craft on the sound systems of his birth country New Zealand, he went on to a string of critically acclaimed releases on Tri Angle Records and Loopy.

Following a series of EPs on the likes of Samurai Horo and Tri Angle, Olly Peryman wrote The Blue Quicksand Is Going Now during stints living in Europe and his hometown of Wellington, New Zealand. The album strikes a spectacular balance between the meditative and disruptive, and marks a continued move away from the high-octane experimental D&B productions that initially marked Peryman out (notably 2012's Duckdive EP), toward something that both viciously rips away and cascades with calm. Ultimately, despite its alien sounds, it is a move toward something more human; sonic explorations made in glorious isolation. Hand-drawn artwork by Brian DeGraw.

"Loopy opens its account with a double dose of disorientating, hypnotic botheration from Oliver Peryman: 'Speech Spirits' is darting and hyper; 'Knecht' more haunted, percussive. Some elastic, bubbling funk from Kassem Mosse on the flip; and twelve minutes of the frighteners from Oren Ambarchi."
