- The dub techno classic was previously only available on CD and digital.
Sasu Ripatti's Vladislav Delay LP Multila is being pressed to vinyl for the first time next month.
The album originally came back in 2000 on Chain Reaction, the legendary dub techno label run by Basic Channel. Multila has only ever been available on CD and digital formats, though it compiles tracks from two EPs that were released on vinyl separately. (Ripatti considers Multila as a proper album.) It contains some of Ripatti's most well-known early material, including the 22-minute epic "Huone."
"Both during and after its recording, Multila is a tool to learn about the unintentional states of us," Ripatti said of the album back in 2000. "It is a way to see our own emotional loops. Multila is a soundtrack for vision."
The new vinyl version, out in March, is remastered by Rashad Becker. It's part of a new series from Keplar called KeplarRev, focused on "vinyl reissues of essential electronic albums from the '90s and '00s, as well as new recordings by momentous electronic and ambient artists."
Ripatti is releasing his next album, Rakka, at the end of this month.
Listen to "Huone."
