The EP was recorded over a period of three months and mainly recorded and produced by band member Allister Christie, with the predominant inspiration being life and its experiences.
The first single from the EP, Brother, Sister, has been submitted to radio stations nationwide. They have also released their first music video for this single which is currently on rotation on MK.
The music video was partly shot in Ballito, and partly in Umhlanga and features Allister as the moon and Irina as the sun, walking in a forest at different times.
"Irina is the sun and Allister is the moon, and although they are always around, they don't meet, because of both of them being in the same place at different times."

Their set ranges from mellow and tranquil, to lively and full of energy. Sets appear like dialogues between a boy and a girl, combining to create contrasts and rich melodies enriched by synth, bass guitar and percussion.
Asleep In Transit are currently working on their second EP, which they will record at Red Bull Studios in Cape Town in July, 2012.
