LP Version. 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 it's alien sounds, it is a move toward something more human; sonic explorations made in glorious isolation. Hand-drawn artwork by Brian DeGraw.
