Actress appreciation thread

[Jizz]

I gotta say RIP's still my favourite but Ghettoville has some beautiful stuff. Street Corp is just

[Muncey]

I wish that Zomby x Actress album wasn't a load of hot air.

[xtcvsmistycold]

ghettoville
rip
hazyville
splazsh

in that order

also 33rpm is the only sensible speed to play wee bey really

sounds better plus you can mix it with other 128/130 bpm stuff and it blends quite nicely.

[skimpi]

Splaszh is my fave album lol

[cloaked_up]

wwweeeeeyyyy beeeeeee on 3333

[Jizz]

i sampled your video for that to make my wallpaper, big ups

Absolutely infatuated with the box set . The two etched vinyls are probably the nicest two discs I've seen in my short life . Also the sleeves have a waxed interior which I've never seen before , it's fancy mane ! Rap on loop 4ever.

[dubway]

RIP is the best tune ever

[Vodun]

Splaszh is my fave album lol

Splaszh is wicked.

I really can't decide which i like most tbh.

[Direflow]

Hazyville > Ghettoville = Splazsh > RIP imho

weirdly enough RIP was the album to actually get me into Actress. can't decide whether or not i like Splazsh or Ghettoville more, 2 really different albums that are good in their own respects.

Went to a festival to see Actress this saturday, missed him because the timetable had been changed on the day.

WOW

[addicted]

some of actress old stuff is great

[nousd]

finally Ghettoville appeared in the record store
reminds me of what Eno did with his soundbite albums
to seed sonic ideas
very interesting...
but leaving the sixth side unused seems a bit precious,
could've used it to record an impoverished producer imo.

[_TraX_]

was Ghettoville made for 33 or 45 speed...?

cause either speed works well really

[Soiree]

ACTRESS, SCUBA, AND SHXCXCHCXSHX should tour.

they could call it, THE NO TECH-NO FOR AN ANSWER TOUR.

special guests... the rolling kidney stones

XLR8R Mix is still Fire!!!

looking forward 2 vinyl for ghettoville, the packaging is just absolutely
gotta love the artsy touch, grim bass waits for no one,
I think ninja tune was a good move for him,
I'd like to see honest johns turn up the african-dub-techno vibes

the wire interview was a good look too, very "hedged" though.
I';; save the verdict on "ghettoville" for after a few bong tokes and a bottle of wine

everyone knows actress kills though, and R.I.P. will be looked back in 20 years as being the most significant influence in (actual) live hardware production... It makes a difference.
analog sound waves and tactile rhythmic patterns...

it just has a tone that all the other producers lack, that mystic vulnerable psychic production that falls into place magically, you can hear the experimentation, the brilliance in his work flow.
it's a subtle signature, but one that leaves a long lasting impression.

"bubble butt... bubble bubble bubble bubble butts and equations"

[_TraX_]

And it's also what he leaves out of his tunes. Lords Graffitti...not much low end, snare isn't over compressed, but those sounds...can't quite distinguish if it's a vocal sample or just a pixelated splash...it's like his most str8forward house track yet it still is weirdly Actress. So good

Xoul EP already out of stock on bleep
