Description:
Featuring an all-star lineup of guests including Björk, Sophie, and Rosalía! A presence that shatters every barrier and transcends even the divine... Arca’s fourth album, a masterpiece of brilliant transformation, is now complete! Following his 2017 album *Arca*, in which he revisited Venezuelan folk music and made a bold move to incorporate “song” into his unconventional electronic sound, Arca has released the shocking single “@@@@@”—which sees his soundscape shift dramatically over the course of more than 62 minutes— —a track that undergoes a dramatic shift in soundscape over its 62-minute runtime—Arca has released the powerful new album *KiCki* via XL Recordings, where diverse musical elements collide dynamically. Packed with numerous dazzling vocal tracks, this album weaves together a random, aggressive beat driven by industrial tones, abstract synth textures, and emotional vocals—elements that emerge one after another to create a form of experimental pop music unlike anything heard before. Like his previous work, Arca himself provides vocals on this album, but *KiCki* also features numerous distinctive guest artists. Foremost among them is Björk, who has a long history of remarkable collaborations with Arca and delivers a stunning vocal performance on “Afterwords.” Also featured is London-based producer and singer Shy Girl brings a distinctly cyberpunk, mechanical, and stylish vibe to “Watch”; Rosalía, the icon of neo-flamenco, infuses “KLK” with an electrifying Latin flair; and on “LaChiqui,” producer/DJ Sophie boldly intertwines experimentalism with pop. Each track brings out the musicality of its guests, and as she says, “I was able to kick down the walls I’d always felt around me,” this powerful album is filled with the dynamism of the moment when someone gives it their all to kickstart change, giving birth to a completely new version of Arca, one that embraces diverse identities.
