Actress

"Metamorphosis"

BY Josiah HughesPublished Jun 26, 2012

Darren Cunningham recently released R.I.P., his third album under the Actress moniker. To follow that up, he's now revealed a label partnership between his own Werk Discs imprint and Ninja Tune, with the latter helping Werk with UK press and distribution. Their first project together is the release of a new and free Actress song called "Metamorphosis."

The six-and-a-half-minute track is all pounding, blown-out bass drum, eerie synths and distant strings that slowly unfold with a creepy buildup. It's not exactly easy listening, but it definitely suggests more fascinating things to come from Actress.

"Metamorphosis" is available here in exchange for your email address.

Thanks to the Quietus for the tip.
