| Following the release of 'Ghettoville', UK producer Actress has revealed the record is inspired by homeless people, drug addicts and the pain they experience.
During an interview with The Beat Juice, he stated that 'Ghettoville', to be released on January 27 via Ninja Tune, had previously been described as "diseased" before naming some of the influences.
"A big part of this album is about homeless people, in a way. Drug addicts, broken down. I just saw one sprawled out, sleeping on a concrete floor. I often wonder how people have got there, and what they’ve experienced."
Asked why those aspects inspired him to write the album, he cited the feeling of pain as most people experience it at some point in life.
"Everyone has to deal with some kind of pain. And we conceal it from each other. But I think people at that level, who have experienced much more extreme pain, have to stick together." |
