# Actress – R.I.P ***R.I.P*** will be the name of **Actress's** third album. Actress is the pseudonym of **Darren Cunningham** who's skitzoid rhythms are dense with purple haze and paranoid ticks. His first album, *Hazyville* which was released on his [Werk][1]{: target="_blank"} discs, hinted at some of the oddness to come but his record for Honest Jon's -- ***[Splazsh][2]{: target="_blank"}*** was the one that really tipped him out the ether and into our collective consciousness. Falling between the cracks of grime and dubstep into a post-bass wormhole Actress' sound is very, very singular. Despite some desperate searching we have not yet found any audio clips of *R.I.P* yet but if you want to join us in regular refreshes of the Hones Jon's product page, which currently contains just the **Will Bankhead** artwork, then[ feel free][3]{: target="_blank"}. In related news Cunningham recently joined **Damon Albarn** on a trip to The Democratic Republic of Congo recently for the Oxfam sponsored [DRC Music project][4]{: target="_blank"}. Coincedently, Damon Albarn is also the one of the people behind the Honest Jon's label. You can catch Actress on tour at the following locations: January 20th PL Wroclaw -- LOG:IN Klub January 21st DE Berlin -- Horst Krzbrg (w/ Emika, Pinch, DJ Pete) January 27th UK Edinburgh -- Bongo Club (w/ Neil Landstrumm) February 2nd UK London -- The Bussey Building (w/ DMX Crew, John Heckle, Gerry Read) February 18th BL Brussels -- Recyclart (Goethe Institute Brussels & meakusma night w/ Monolake, Farben aka Jan Jelinek, Anstam, Sensu) March 9th DE Berlin -- Gretchen (w/ 2562, Delfonic) [1]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/features/news/lukid-preps-chords-for-werk-discs [2]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/features/news/actress-to-put-out-splazsh [3]: http://www.honestjons.com/label.php?pid=39612&LabelID=14815&g=1 [4]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/music/features/drc-music-releases-oxfam-benefit-album-with-help-from-damon-albarn-actress
