Car Culture/Physical Therapy

New Jersey born, Queens based artist Car Culture, the alias of Daniel Fisher (best known as Physical Therapy), releases his new album Rest Here via NAFF Recordings. Exemplifying Fisher’s wide ranging approach to production, Rest Here plays like a well-worn mixtape: ranging from fuzzy dream pop to hypnotic downtempo. Rest Here includes the single “Doesn’t Really Matter,” a hazy power ballad duet with vocals from Fisher and Chicago-based indie star Squirrel Flower.

As Car Culture, Fisher brings focus to his sentimental side. In the fan-favorite Remissions mix series, he collages fuzzy folktronica, found sounds and unexpected edits into foot-gazing narratives.

As Physical Therapy, Fisher has gained a cult following for his dynamic DJ sets and playful productions. From unassuming beginnings in New York City dive bars, Fisher carved a path through the Brooklyn warehouse scene before moving to Berlin in 2013 and starting his own label, Allergy Season. In Germany, Fisher absorbed the sounds of the scene and developed his own, singular interpretation of dance music — closer to the jocular energy of the 90s than the heads-down thumpers Berlin is known for. Regular slots at Berghain and Panorama Bar soon followed. Meanwhile Fisher kept a presence on the New York scene with Allergy Season parties at warehouses and venues like Bossa Nova Civic Club.

Over the course of the last 15 years, Fisher has had a prolific, zig-zagging career, releasing genre-agnostic music under a number of aliases, often on his own Allergy Season label. From his first EP on the ground breaking label Hippos In Tanks, Fisher has continually created surprising, playful electronic music. Through his DJ sets around the globe and his long running NTS Radio show, Fisher manages to weave these many threads together.
