Splazsh is the second studio album by British electronic musician Actress. It was released on 8 June 2010 by Honest Jon's Records.
There's almost nothing that ties such disparate tracks together, except for everything. And that everything owes to the simultaneous sense of adventure and control that has made Actress one of the most intriguing electronic-music makers at work today. Actress himself has called his music "R&B concrète," and that helps illuminate the way he works from both inside and outside a track. He has an ear for building up a song from the bottom (like a pop producer) and then abstracting it from the top (like a musique concrète technician), so that he makes some incredibly strange sounds surprisingly palatable-- and without making a big show of their strangeness. In that, Actress shares a certain allegiance with post-dubstep artists like Zomby (who has made records for the label that Actress runs, Werk Discs). But there's a range of hooks and ideas at play in Splazsh that few others have approached, much less made coherent.
