Actress—the moniker of British electronic producer Darren Cunningham—will release a new album via Smalltown Supersound.

Statik is “imbued with a sense of freedom and stillness,” we’re told, because Cunningham wrote the majority of it in an extensive flow state. It follows last year’s LXXXVIII, released via Ninja Tune, and marks his first full length for Smalltown Supersound.

Once “inside” the Statik experience, listeners may well find themselves “newly calm and meditative.” While it’s unmistakably an Actress albums, it’s also “distinctly aquatic and subtly primordial, and so offers his audience novel elemental atmospheres to flow through,” we’re told.

Alongside the album, the Norwegian label has shared “Static,” a shadowy and buzzy ambient track, and “Dolphin Spray.”

The collaboration between Cunningham and the Smalltown Supersound evolved organically following his remix of a Carmen Villain cut for the 12″ of her Only Love From Now On LP.
