New Zealander Fis is an electronic producer whose musical practice is rooted in the physical experience of sound. He’s experimented with meditative, sound-system sculpting for EPs with Samurai Horo, Exit and Tri Angle, and albums for Loopy and Subtext. In 2017, he collaborated with fellow New Zealander Rob Thorne on the album Clear Stones, which blends live improvisational recordings of Thorne playing traditional Maori instruments with Fis’s seemingly borderless sound worlds. Most recently, Fis has started his own label, Saplings, which uses music sales to fund the planting of trees (alongside Eden Reforestation Projects) – it’s a label concept that Fis hopes will be “a conduit for musical energy to return to the planet”. His debut sample pack ‘Textured Sounds and Loops’ embodies his unique take on the natural world and is perfect for adding vast oceans of depth to your beats.
