In-demand white label spawns the offical pic-sleeve single from the joint collaboration of Werk Discs and Ninja Tune. Love this new approach from Actress: it’s super-textural, chill out music that brings Aphex Twin to mind. The 11 minute plus “Voodoo Posse Chronic Illusion” initially starts jaggedly, but Actress is able to transform the zigs and pops into a hypnotic calm. “Floating In Ecstasy” pops off immediately, sounding like a build-up to a medieval battle. Does anything else sound like this? The final cut, “Dream Come True”, is my favorite here: super-sluggish like wearing a extra-heavy mink coat. Look out for the Ghettoville album coming later this year. Recommended.
