Christian Kleine / Touch & Fuse - Neon Orange 2LP version now available

Arguably Christian Kleine’s most comprehensive and colorful release to capture his enigmatic IDM style, Touch & Fuse was originally released on CD in 2020 and is now available as a Neon Orange 2LP edition.

Featuring a new vinyl master and lacquer cut by Andreas Lupo Lubich, with revised and expanded artwork by Noah M / Keep Adding, copies are available through our Bandcamp store, our distributors Juno (UK) , One Eye Witness (EU) and additional stores soon.

Ameeva / Die Wellen (9128-4)

Out today on our sub-label 9128.live, an incredible live performance by Ameeva, which we had the pleasure of hosting last year during the 9128 anniversary takeover. Now available on digital and a limited edition cassette box with UV printed foil.

Born in Girona, Spain and based in Berlin since 2019, Alex Bussé Santacruz's Ameeva project previously came to life on the Lowless music label in 2020 and the album 'Fractura del Sueño'. His live set for the 9128 Birthday event took these experimental electronics to a deeper, more personal level, weaving friends' samples and conversations into a rich tapestry of drone and field recordings, creating an immersive and enveloping 40-minute narrative.

Available on Bandcamp, and Juno.

The 9128 label aims to document significant live performances by artists that previously performed on the 9128.live platform. With recordings initially created for a singular collective listening moment, and often as part of a festival or takeover weekend, label recordings will re-present this music for further listening across various formats that best suit each release.

Gadi Sassoon / Chaos & Order (ASIPV037)

I’m very excited to welcome Gadi Sassoon back to the label with his second release and the Chaos & Order EP. Following his well-received debut album, Multiverse, Gadi has continued in experimental world-building by creating an immersive record that comes to life in various different ways.

Based on three tracks original created for an immersive Quadraphonic system, the release not only features stunning remixes by Olga Wojciechowska, Max Würden and FRKTL, but is accompanied by separate Binaural versions, Atmos versions, and a super-limited 2LP lathe cut featuring the Quadraphonic splits, enabling a custom playback experience for those lucky to snap one up. Not to mention a beautiful print of the artwork by Noah M / Keep Adding.

Head over to the release page for all the details.

Illuvia / Iridescence of Clouds (Sea of Vapor) now shipping

Copies of Illuvia’s Iridescence of Clouds (Sea of Vapor) have arrived with us at ASIP HQ looking and sounding amazing. The double CD digipak features extended artwork by Noah M / Keep Adding, and a full suite of reworks by Ludvig - versions that didn’t fit the original album or feature additional reworks, alongside completely new tracks, to bring it all together as one complete ambient dnb odyssey.

You can buy the CD direct with ASIP on Bandcamp, with Juno in the UK/EU, or even with Ludvig’s 8Merch store (also good for EU).

More info is available on the album release page.

Merrin Karras / Silent Planet 12" now available

Merrin Karras’ 2020 foray into extended compositions combining his Berlin School tendencies and expansive ambient is finally pressed-up on cloudy transparent 12”. Remastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri and featuring revisited art by Noah M / Keep Adding.

~

Conceived and composed in two days, Silent Planet is Brendan's first attempt at a fully continuous piece of music. Normally, albums under his Merrin Karras guise take many months, if not years, to put together:

"I wanted to challenge myself to create a mini-album in a short amount of time, not to think too much about it, but just to let it flow and see what happened. Everything was created in one project, but it's comprised of six distinct sections. Several motifs and elements are re-used at various points throughout the work. It's also the first time that I've used percussion elements in a Merrin Karras work".

The mood spans from brooding to almost Balearic at points, with strong elements of Berlin School and Space Music, classic Trance, and Ambient all intertwined.

Silent Planet is available in digital formats and transparent smoke 12”.
