You may have seen this name circulating on the internet in the last few years, and it's now that it deserves your full attention.
American electronic/rock act Model/Actriz have delivered the ultimate left hook on their new sophomore record. Their debut showed them to be full of ideas and vision, but here things take flight spectacularly.
Model/Actriz are an act committed to manual electronica driven through grooves and live drums, but they can go toe-to-toe with any headlining DJs. There’s a claustrophobic energy here that’s almost post-punk, but the constant rhythm always pulls the record forward.
Nine Inch Nails fans will rejoice. It would also be a must for those currently loving the KGLW rave sets. For the uninitiated, it’s somewhere between Liars & LCD Soundsystem.
As the global dance scene continues to explode, the analogue and organic elements continue to prove some of the most rewarding of the era, and this is no exception. It’s an absolute sonic journey and one of the most surprising records of the year.
Highlights for us are 'Vespers', 'Cinderella' and 'Diva'.
This will be a highlight of 2025.
'Pirouette' is available in the store now.
