Vladislav Delay is the pseudonym of Sasu Ripatti, a Finnish electronic musician. He has also performed as Luomo, Sistol, Uusitalo and Conoco. He been involved in ambient music, glitch and techno genres. His method of track production involves a mixture of looping, sample weaving, and live reprocessing. Many tracks have an organic feeling that pervades through rolling dubby basslines, hypersliced vocal snippets.

Anima, released in 2001 and is an hour long mixture of harmony, dissonance and layers of clicks and pops. Some have compared it to a creation of a work was in which Delay overdubbed himself fumbling around cleaning the studio.
