  • Actress, real name Darren Cunningham, has launched a new label, Werk__Ltd, whose first release will be a mini-LP by Young Paint. Young Paint is described variously as an "AI sprite" and "learning program" that has "progressively emulated" Actress's musical process since his debut LP, Hazyville. Young Paint may, however, be another alias of Cunningham's—one of the artist's aliases, AZD, is also the title of Actress's last album and an anagram of Cunningham's childhood nickname. Young Paint's self-titled, six-track mini-LP will be released September 29th by Werk__Ltd in collaboration with The Vinyl Factory. Young Paint and Actress will perform live together on Saturday, October 13th at South London's Unit 8. Powell & Wolfgang Tillmans, Machine Woman, Overmono, Erotic Costume Drama and Dan Orchard will also play. Update: Young Paint is available to stream now. Listen below.
    Tracklist 01. Travel Paint 02. Neutral Paint 03. Boy Paint 04. Twisty Paint 05. Ai Paint 06. Kat Paint Werk__Ltd and The Vinyl Factory will release Young Paint on September 29th, 2018.
