Actress’ tenth studio album, the celestial and meditative ‘Statik’ - for our money his best work in years - is released this spring via Smalltown Supersound and available here as an exclusive white vinyl edition.
"The ‘Statik’ project, from conception through creation and release, has been blessed with an almost unnatural ease. For Actress, who wrote the majority of his subtly majestic new record in an extensive deep flow state, the project serves as a cohesive testament to artistic liberation. Resultantly, the contemplative new album is imbued with a sense of freedom, while belying its creator’s expertise through forensic attention to textural detail and signature Actress resonances.
Listening closely, influential visions of aquatic realms, such as the mythic Atlantis, and evocations of flying birds (and, perhaps, humans) may reveal themselves. No matter if Statik inspires you to soar above or below the horizon, Actress and Smalltown Supersound promise you a safe and transcendent journey."

After recent mixtape “88”, Actress reveals new album "Karma & Desire". ‘Walking Flames’ featuring Sampha is out now.“Karma & Desire” includes guest collaborations from Sampha, Zsela and Aura T-09 and more. It’s “a romantic tragedy set between the heavens and the underworld” says Actress (Darren J. Cunningham) “the same sort of things that I like to talk about – love, death, technology, the questioning of one's being”. The presence of human voices take the questing artist into new territory.
‘Walking Flames’: “These are like graphics that I’ve never seen / My face on another human being / The highest resolution / Don't breathe the birth of a new day.”
Flute-like melodies contributed by Canadian organist and instrument builder Kara-Lis Coverdale.

Yves(이브)의 첫 EP 엘범 [LOOP] 은 Yves가 솔로 아티스트로써 자신만의 세계를 만들어가는 첫걸음이다. 이브는 오랜 시간 동안 팀 안에서, 그리고 일정한 규율과 시스템에 자신을 맞춰왔다. 그런 그에게 이번 앨범은 미리 정해진 규칙의 고리(loop)에서 벗어나, 스스로를 탐구하고 음악으로 표현하는 첫 시도이다. 그렇기에 이번 EP는 서툴지만 과감하고, 투박하지만 솔직하다. 자신을 믿고 기다려 준 팬들에 대한 고마움도 담겨 있다.
포크부터 얼터너티브 R&B까지, [LOOP]에 수록된 네 곡의 음악은 Yves가 자신을 탐구하며 발견한 모습을 다양하게 표현한 결과물이다. 그동안 꺼내기 어려웠던 Yves의 마음과 생각을 만날 수 있을 것이다. 불완전하지만, 그렇기에 앞으로가 더 기대되는 Yves의 항해에 여러분을 초대한다.
