Deeply unhinged, potent revisions of the Shangaan sound from the inimitable Actress.
Let’s not beat around the bush here; these are two of the most out-there productions in his catalogue, venturing further between worlds than any of his peers dare, and at once resetting the consensual allowance for noise and psychoactive madness in what could still be called a “dance” track.
A-side sounds like a stray radio transmission picked up by alien receivers, buffering the groove with malleable white noise and psychedelic filter flux. B-side, the manic intensity of Shangaan Electro is funnelled tighter into the pocket, draining away any excess colour to leave a low bitrate marimba rhythm compressed within an inch of its life but still twitching and flickering with hypnotic electricity.
