ASIP Label Showcase @ Public Records, New York: OKRAA + Salvatore Mercantante + Aspetuck

A Strangely Isolated Place presents an evening of room-filled atmospherics, taking over the Public Records Sound Room.

Colombian-born, OKRAA, presents his intense analog walls of sound and complex IDM, as heard throughout his new album on A Strangely Isolated Place, ‘La Gran Corriente’, as well as his previous outings, ‘1994’ and his more beat-driven alias ‘Laudrup’.

Debuting on the label earlier this year, New York-based artist Salvatore Mercatante is quickly defining a sharp and soaring IDM style, with complex drum patterns and clinical progressions, that cry out for a big system, and now finally unleashed in his hometown.

With a release set to arrive on the label next year, local producer, and Hudson NY native, Aspetuck will be opening the evening with a DJ set, highlighting his unique ear for a blend of electronic styles, and a taste of what’s to come on the label in 2025.

Markus Guentner presents a long-form mix of all tracks from his trilogy of albums on ASIP, Theia, Empire and Extropy. 

Over eight years and three LPs, Markus Guentner weaved a conceptual narrative that spanned millions of years. The German musician’s first album for the label, Theia explored the legend of the planet believed to have collided with Earth to form the Moon. This was followed by Empire (2018), narrating the creation of life on Earth, and the trilogy concluded with Extropy (2020), centered on the concept of limitless growth and what potentially lies ahead of us all. 

Together, the mix embodies Markus’ most defining chapter in style and sound, available as one complete high-quality and immersive long-form listening experience.

Theia (2015)
