Darren Cunningham's fourth album as Actress is a record that takes his fascinations—Detroit techno, Chicago ghetto house, rap—and repeatedly kicks them in the ribs. After three collections that played Jenga with genre rules, Ghettoville is content to wallow in the ruins of the musics its predecessors so fascinatingly deconstructed.
