jackson ryland keeps the momentum flowing with a 4-track self-release 12inch entitled acting careless. the tracks were recorded between 2018 and spring 2019, intent on embodying a dj s record that could be thrown on at different moments and emotions during a set. the freeflowing, laidback and freewheeling feeling behind the house & warehouse party sound of dc inspired the recording process. borrowing from the past few years experience recording at high speeds with the rush plus project, acting careless continues that same rhythmic intensity with a more uplifting and spiritually cleansing angle. a happy push-pull balance between fierce and sweetness.
