The producer known as ACTRESS and his r&b concrète

I love this record. Keep coming back to it.

new 12" "silver cloud" is some beautiful sinister fuzzed out fucked-up mutant techno

is it as good as the la dusseldorf track of the same name

Yeah this is great - nice to have some longer tracks from him.

"voodoo posse chronic illusion" is so so good

yep

a new afx album would be nice but actress is kinda supplanting the old 90s greats imo

still unsure how I've listened to and enjoyed this dude's music for over two years but only found out a few weeks ago that he played professionally for West Brom

absolutely addicted to this at the moment

Even more intriguingly, it’s known that Cunningham was previously a footballer due to embark on a career with West Bromwich Albion, before injury forced him to retire from the sport at the age of 19 (a “crushing decision to make,” he says). What business, our inner snob demands to know, could a one-time professional hoofer of balls have making music as obtuse, as formally brilliant as this?

had no idea about this, rmde at the pleb who wrote that anyway

also found this charming review by some pensioner

Remixes of Legowelt: https://soundcloud.com/clone-nl/legowelt-elementz-of-houz

his boiler room mix is still my all time favorite dj mix

whenever I listen to this it feels like a watered down version of madlib beat tapes, I wish I could get into it because in theory this is like my favorite shit

rip clicked w/ me and its completely stunning, I was looking at it in the wrong light entirely

what light are you looking at it in now?

I actually haven't smoked in a long time!

I can't really answer that intelligently, I guess I'm letting it be its own thing and not trying to compare it to anything else, and that has allowed my perception to the music to open itself up a little more

I don't expect to be as spazzy as I wanted it to be originally maybe? idk

my perception of the music, obv

Still think it's a lot less than the sum of the ideas that people use to describe it.

missing no just needs to chill a lil, i don't wanna scare off ppl who know more about techno than me

excellent news

yesssssssss

Ghettoville is the bleached out and black tinted conclusion of the Actress image.

Where the demands of writing caught the artist slumped and reclined, devoid of any soul, acutely aware of the simulated prism that required breakout.

Four albums in and the notes and compositions no longer contain decipherable language.

The scripts now carry tears, the world has returned to a flattened state, and out through that window, the birds look back into the cage they once inhabited.

Spitting flames behind a white wall of silence.

The machines have turned to stone, data reads like an obituary to its user.

A fix is no longer a release, it's a brittle curse. Zero satisfaction, no teeth, pseudo artists running rampant, but the path continues.

LOL

No comment on that up there, but just came here to say:

if you like Actress, check out that Gardland "Syndrome Syndrome" album on Rvng Intl, it's dope

it's got it's own thing, but the effect sometimes reminded me of the more upfront Actress jams

sorry actress :(

it sucks to be young and sad, but there's a whole lot of liberating history before you.

LOL

Still excited for the new album doe

sad news

new saido berahino 12 on force tracks is my shit right now anyway tho

i'm still excited too but it made me LOL
