In
2004, Philadelphia's PATTERN IS MOVEMENT released their debut full-length
record The (Im)possibility of Longing.
Self-recorded and meticulously arranged it introduced PATTERN IS MOVEMENT's
knack for blending complex rhythms with classic melodies. This was
most notably recognized by Pitchfork Media:"Pattern
is Movement more than transcend the math-rock tag, and their senses
of song craft and pop accessibility greatly outpace those of just
about any of their peers."
However, not content to rest on their laurels, PIM traded in the bedroom
for a plane trip to San Francisco. There they set up shop for two
weeks to record at John Vanderslice's all analog studio - Tiny Telephone.
There, PIM crafted a record that included a vast amount of orchestration
- from cellos and violins to tape speed edits. In comparison to their
debut, Stowaway was a creation
devoid of digital interference. And for this commitment to fidelity
to work, PATTERN IS MOVEMENT requested the engineering skills of one
of the best engineers: Scott Solter. Scott has engineered and produced
records for such indie rock heavyweights as Spoon, The Mountain Goats,
John Vanderslice and Two Gallants. His talent as well as his careful
'ear' for detail shaped what was to become a record of pristine quality
and immense focus.
Yet, PATTERN IS MOVEMENT is not a studio band. Though their attention
to detail may appear to pin them as such - this is not the case. Since
their inception, they have toured vigorously - spanning not only the
eastern seaboard but also the whole U.S. It is from that vigor that
they have also received the honor to grace the stage with such bands
as American Analog Set, John Vanderslice, Chin Up Chin Up, Minus the
Bear, Rahim and The Gossip.
PATTERN IS MOVEMENT will be entering the studio in early 2007 with
Scott Solter to record their follow-up to Stowaway
for Hometapes.
