Actress – Hell
Actress and Smalltown Supersound promise you a safe and transcendent journey…
LXXXVIII is the ninth Actress album, and is presented as “the very first presentation of [his] voyage into ‘luxury sonics’ – the culmination of 25 years’ honing mind-shorting, soul-igniting audio infusions for dance floors, rave dens, festivals, and concert halls”. I’m not even going to attempt to top that, other than to say that this is as meditative and immersive as Darren Cunningham’s music has ever been.
Kaleida’s original version of Think wasn’t exactly an overly expansive affair, and yet Actress manages to make it seem positively luxurious, so stripped back and minimalistic is his remix. Released last week to celebrate Lex Records’ 20th anniversary, its glacial electronics and muted tones create an eerie, detached atmosphere that quickly gets under your skin.
