## Summary

London producer Darren J. Cunningham, who records as Actress, has announced a new album, Radical Frame, due out in September on Ninja Tune. The announcement comes alongside a new single, "Overchord," and continues a prolific run for the veteran experimental dance artist, who has been releasing music under the Actress name for around two decades.

Radical Frame will include "Live By You," Actress's recent collaboration with grime artist CASISDEAD, as well as a track featuring Manchester producer Rainy Miller. "Overchord" itself shifts from a stark piano ballad into a heavier house beat with glitchy production flourishes, and arrives with a video directed by Anna van der Velde. The eight-track album is set for release on 18th September.
