A provocative encapsulation of Actress' creative vision, setting the scene for the South Londoner's imminent album Splazsh, and accompanied by one of Zomby's toughest mixes so far. Paint is vintage Actress. Sticky and claustrophobic, but multi-faceted and openhearted, it's a bold, at times disconcerting excursion into the inner life of house and techno.

Melodically, you might think of classical minimalism by way of the Caribbean, and while its neurotically funky drum patterns nod to the experimental fringe of Chicago house, the low-end atmospherics betray the music's UK origins. Zomby's arresting remix invokes UK funky with a forthright, carnivalesque house rhythm, re-stringing the delicate melodies of the original into his own inimitable, spidery, escalating computer-funk. Maze presents a different side to Actress, its pulsation and phasing summoning 1980s cold wave and early techno, or maybe John Carpenter, or Kraftwerk's Autobahn rerouted through South London.
