Silent Member Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Not a huge fan of these/this track, but still looking forward to hearing the EP in full.

thumbass Posted October 12, 2022 Author Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Very nice track. I revisit Actress' clubby tracks more frequently than his others in general so this is right up my alley Edited November 14, 2022 by thumbass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDobalina Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Yeah totally digging this, stoked for some proper Actress But srsly fuck is the point of having an track and also track (edit) on a fucking digital release tho? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty normal with more pop oriented singles. Its like a radio edit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayyy, comment made fully aware of this. Unless there's a critical mass of fanbois running shit-hot IDM pirate radio from their mom's basements (and pressed for time at that, lol), I don't get the point for (edit)s on an Actress EP. Bro is just padding the runtime with 53% new footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro is just padding the runtime with 53% new footage. I dont necessarily agree. I also don't really understand why he felt the need to add the edits since no one is going to play them on actual radio, but it's not really padding imo. Its an EP with four very long tracks. The first one is around 20 mins if I'm not mistaken. That makes the ep 40 mins long. It's just a nice extra for people with worse attention spans. Also sometimes it's nice to put on a short banger and then move on with your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirm Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I agree the edits are pointless but don't care as like you say nice long e.p anyway & really enjoying dream. Excited to hear the full thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxien Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) edit is tighter, it's deece. the full version meanders a bit too much on first listen at least it is a bit odd releasing both the edit and the long version at once tho...more interesting is that the 19 minute title track doesn't have an edit tho. curious what the whole EP is gonna sound like. also, please change the spelling of the title it's killing me every time i see it thnx Edited October 14, 2022 by auxien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnarlybog Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I like the first track, it reminds me of early Vladislav Delay at times. 'Fragments of a Butterfly's Face' is also nice. The repeating sample in Dream is pretty annoying so that one is a skip from me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thumbass Posted November 12, 2022 Author Share Posted November 12, 2022 Hazy techno has always been my favorite form of actress. This EP is long form hazy techno and I'm here for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taupe Beats Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Like this a lot. Futur Spher Techno Version is beautiful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Key Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Im enjoying it. Not that he's had a bad run or anything but this def feels like its back to basics, getting the essentials right. Loving the haze. Wonder if there is any plans for a physical release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlisuite Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 anymore haze it would be a hotbox. i was hoping the edit version would lose the annoying voice sample but whadyagonnado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirm Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Was a little underwhelmed on 1st listen..though think that was partly because I was expecting it to all be banging techno like Dream. Listening again now & enjoying it a lot more, its very much suiting the vibe on this misty grey afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnwarAutokino Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I really like the title track, gives me Sasu Ripatti vibes. Darren really has a knack for these playful synth lines, like the one that features in part 2 of the title track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbass Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 Actress never fails to impress. His sound is truly singular. This EP is amazing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDobalina Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (Edit)s are in... and... they're compact! And my mans, still eschewing stereophonics! Now Darren (pls) summon lopez with the haterade and the cycle will be complete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirm Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Really grown on me with more listens proper nice e.p. especially loving the title track. I don't even mind the edits at the end, nice little reprisals to finish it off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
