As ingenious as his albums are, it’s often on his remixes that we see the really, really weird side of Actress.
On his ‘Brown Weed’ remix of Redlight‘s ‘Cure Me’ – once a filtered chart-houser, ripe for the end of the night – Actress slows things down to the pace of a tired worker dragging concrete blocks on loop. If it’s ripe for anything, it’s a good night’s sleep, but you get the impression that this track’s leaves turned brown long ago – it’s gloomy as hell, and it sounds superb.
‘Cure Me’ is available for pre-order now.
