  1. Yeah this is dissapointing me too tbh. The last two tracks suck. If it was an album it would have been fine but it's not, it's a 5 track ep. He should've released one of the drone tracks beforehand to let people know this wasn't gonna be an ep full of lanark bangers. The first track is cool but the rest has not grown on me.
  2. Statik | Actress (bandcamp.com) bandcamp pre-order up now
  3. Actress - Statik - new album out 7th June (smalltownsupersound.com) new album out June 7th. Actress — the moniker of British electronic producer Darren Cunningham — announces his new album, Statik, out July 7th via Smalltown Supersound, and shares singles “Dolphin Spray” & “Static.” Cunningham’s latest studio album is imbued with a sense of freedom and stillness. From conception through creation and release, Statik has been blessed with an almost unnatural ease. For Actress, who wrote the majority of this record in an extensive flow state, the celestial and expansive project serves as a testament to artistic liberation. “Static,” a shadowy and buzzy ambient track released quietly last week, sets the stage for the bouncy and twinkling “Dolphin Spray.” Once ‘inside’ the Statik experience, listeners may well find themselves newly calm and meditative. Of course, those well-versed in Actress’s works are well-traveled when it comes to fantastical flights of the mind. Transportive sonics that spark inner-voyages – whether through nocturnal cityscapes, or far above and beyond, through Saturn’s rings and past Pluto’s moons – are prime Cunningham terrain. Yet while Statik is unmistakably an Actress LP, it’s also distinctly aquatic and subtly primordial, and so offers his audience novel elemental atmospheres to flow through. Listening closely, influential visions of aqueous realms, such as the mythic Atlantis, and evocations of ancient ceremonies as well as 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.

  4. Liking the track but it's nothing revolutionary. Not that Mike has to make music that pushes the boudnaries though. Looking forward to this!
  5. Why does this bang though Ai could be fun to experiment with when you put it in the context of generative music like some richard devine or ae type stuff. I probably wouldn't like to listen to it as much as human produced abstract music but it could be fun to see what sounds the ai could cook up
  6. Truly one of the afx tracks
  7. Best track Morphology isn't my favorite act by any means but this has turned out to be a nice project.
  8. Nahh that Simpsons remix was funny and meant to be sarcastic. Love hudmo's sense of humor
  9. I think the people that want to keep listening to real and human produced music will know where to look tbh. That's why I don't think music is over yet. I do worry for the further saturation of the music landscape, genres getting flooded with this ai shit.

  11. Have a nice easter WATMM
  12. Bump because this album is amazing and has grown on me massively. Tracks like Cross The Gap, The Break-up, Uncoil and Lagrange Point are all insanely cool footwork/ dnb type crossovers. Especially the latter is such a satisfying listen after the astro darion interlude. Love the smooth way Uncoil ends too. Getting into footwork as a genre really gave me new appreciation for this album. You can see that Steve has a creative mind.
  13. I agree with Pizza, I don't really think Vault is the best solution to the problem that is modern streaming. Blake took a stance against Spotify and then announced his Vault venture only a few days later. Because of that it looked like he was just trying to stir up something/ promote Vault tbh. id'prefer it if people just put their music for purchase instead of these weird half assed subscription services. I feel like the quality of music released under the guise of a subsciption service would diminish because the artist feels obligated to release something for the people who pay for it.

    Dune

    Almost done reading Heretics, I liked the characters and I feel like the story was easier to understand than some of the prior books actually. what is everyone's opinion on the latter couple of Dune books?
  15. Speed Of Darkness, Iris, Open Canvas and Auset are incredible bangers. I feel like this genre doesn't lend itself that well to innovation so considering that I feel like she's making the best out of it. Amazing album
  16. Can't wait for this collab, love both artists and the tracks sound unique.
  17. Really liking the crunch of these beats. This is one I'll be returning to.
  18. New album from Speedy and Surgeon out on STOOR releasing may 17th. It's the first stoor album release ever! Two Hours Or Something | Multiples (Speedy J & Surgeon) | STOOR (bandcamp.com)
  19. Liking the vocal cuts ont thise one, nice to have him back for sure!
