Actress Reveals New Album Radical Frame

His first solo LP in two years includes the new single “Overchord” and last month’s “Live by You”

British avant-techno producer Actress has returned with his first new solo album in two years. Radical Frame is out September 18 via Ninja Tune. He’s also sharing the new single “Overchord” with a trippy music video by Anna van der Velde featuring a series of white rooms with a puppeteering contraption, deconstructed sculptures, and hundreds of pieces of paper flying around.

Check it out below. Radical Frame is Darren Cunningham’s 10th solo studio album under his Actress moniker, excluding 2018’s Lageos with the London Contemporary Orchestra and his collaborative album with Suzanne Ciani, Concrète Waves, from earlier this year. The eight-song tracklist includes two guest features: CasIsDead on the previously released single “Live by You,” and Rainy Miller on the album closer “Sheets.”

In November, Actress will perform at Pitchfork Music Festival Paris. This year’s lineup boasts Iceage, Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul, Lido Pimienta, Robber Robber, Ear, Quiet Light, Worldpeace DMT, Bassvictim, the Femcels, and many more. Tickets are on sale now via Dice.
