Sun & Smoke is originally a 2-hour self-produced mix uploaded to Youtube and Soundcloud (https://asip.me/3wvukf4) in 2018 by Greek artist, https://soundcloud.com/dj_theef. Consisting of unreleased productions, the set was uploaded as a safe space, with zero expectations of it ever gaining attention or release.

After many late-night listening sessions, ASIP contacted Theef to discuss how a release might come to life. Originally consisting of 21 tracks in total –with two subsequently released on Morevi Records in 2022– ASIP had the honor of curating and sequencing an album from the remaining 19 unreleased productions, finally landing on those that best represented the intention of the original mix and the feelings it evoked upon those first moments of discovery. 

The appeal of Sun & Smoke can be found in its purity. Built with no intention or audience in mind, the album traverses core elements of deep techno, trance and downtempo. Progressive atmosphere building, addictive underlying grooves, and expansive moments of euphoria; as a mixtape, Sun & Smoke is a zero-visibility haze of eyes-closed, body-moving, forward momentum. As an album, each track is now allowed the space to deliver on its own defining atmosphere. 

From the ambient leaning beginnings of Sky Textures and the title track, Sun & Smoke, to the electro tinges of Primal Age, and the metallic swirls and glistening synths in Approaching Stars, the parts now have the chance to become greater than the sum of its original whole. 

Mastered by Giuseppe Tillieci (Neel / Voices From The Lake) with artwork photography by Juan Fernandez (edited by ASIP), Sun & Smoke will be available on Transparent Red/Orange Smoke gatefold 2LP + digital.

Amplify Series 101 - Toki Fuko

Here are the final 2hrs of my opening set at Staub in August 2024. Its been a while since I had a proper opening techno moment so this one was a fun little challenge for me. Live recordings are also super tricky to post online because a bit of context in missing - you just "had" to be there right? Anyways...

We journey through some deep and dreamy rhythms, dubby stabs, jacking grooves, and theres a cunty moment thrown in there somewhere too. It all rolls at a body friendly tempo because I know your knees are tired dancing to 145bpm techno all night long. 

A friend said I opened up the dancefloor perfectly - what do you think? ;)

Inspired by music and art at a very young age, Mill H, the tattoo artist-turned-DJ, has been exploring his art of sound since 2009.
Mill’s selection is beyond the boundary of genres and styles. The music he chooses to play often embraces a rich texture and reflects the atmosphere of the crowd and venue. For Mill, a great DJ set is a journey of balancing and merging the mind and music aurally feeling the space; physically expressing the emotion.
Beside being a regular selector on the local circuit and underground parties, he has also been invited to play for the first ever Hong Kong Boiler Room together with the members of Utopia.
