Actress’ Ghettoville due for January release Posted: 06 Nov 2013 05:01 AM PST The sequel to his acclaimed debut album Hazyville that came through his own Werkdiscs label in 2008, Actress’ Ghettoville marks the completion of an artistic journey for the idiosyncratic producer from Wolverhampton. Mr Cunningham describes the process rather poetically in the press release which reads as follows: ‘Ghettoville is the bleached out and black tinted conclusion of the Actress image. Where the demands of writing caught the artist slumped and reclined, devoid of any soul, acutely aware of the simulated prism that required breakout. Four albums in and the notes and compositions no longer contain decipherable language. The scripts now carry tears, the world has returned to a flattened state, and out through that window, the birds look back into the cage they once inhabited. Spitting flames behind a white wall of silence. The machines have turned to stone, data reads like an obituary to its user. A fix is no longer a release, it’s a brittle curse. Zero satisfaction, no teeth, pseudo artists running rampant, but the path continues. R.I.P Music 2014. Actress’ The album will be available in a boxset that comes with a 32-page artbook, Ghettoville 3LP + CD and an exclusive re-mastered Hazyville 2LP + CD that will also be released on vinyl for the first time.
