Actress – Radical Frame CD

Darren Cunningham has spent twenty years pushing electronic music somewhere less comfortable, folding musique concrete and avant-garde composition into records that still work at club volume. Radical Frame reads as a summation: his signature sound, plus a deliberate handing-off to the artists coming up behind him. CASISDEAD appears on Live By You and Rainy Miller turns up elsewhere, extending a run of collaborators that already takes in Sampha, The London Contemporary Orchestra, Zsela and Laura Groves. Anna Van der Velde and rybskie handled creative direction. Jewel case, design by rybskie.
