Welcome to LXXXVIII - the ninth album to be created by Actress (Darren Cunningham) and the very first presentation of Actress' voyage into luxury sonics.
A lifetime in the making, LXXXVIII is the culmination of 25 years' honing mind-shorting, soul-igniting audio infusions for dance floors, rave dens, festivals, and concert halls.

LXXXVIII pays dividends to meditate on an instrumental facet of its creation: game theory. Indeed, deep strategic thinking - more readily associated with economics and chess than artistic practice - was fundamental to Actress' process as LXXXVIII was channelled into existence. The release follows 2022's mesmerising Dummy Corporation, which placed Actress firmly back in the centre of underground club culture. Prior to that his 2020 album Karma & Desire - which saw guest collaborations from Mercury Prize winner Sampha, Zsela and Aura T-09 - was received to widespread acclaim, with The Guardian commenting the album "cements his place as one of the great poets of club culture".
