London - via - New York - via - Connecticut - via - Caracas artist Arca, also known as Alejandro Ghersi, releases his 3rd solo full - length on XL. Famous for his work as an experimental instrumental composer and producer for Bjork, Kanye West, and FKA Twigs, Ghersi shows off his singing on this self - titled LP, much like James Blake did. Inspired by Bjork, who encouraged him to sing on his own tracks, Arca's leftfield beats, operatic vocals, and macabre mood will appeal to fans of Bjork's Homogenic. For non - Spanish speakers, the Spanish lyrics add an extra layer to the seasick FM synth sound. His unaffected vocals are reminiscent of Anohni, Martin Gore, and Bjork. With intermittently spastic beats and confrontational imagery, Arca sounds like a romantically bleak post - apocalyptic opera. This vinyl LP comes with an 8 - page booklet, a gatefold sleeve, and a digital download. It's from XL Recordings in 2017 and was reviewed by dj winyl destination in 05/2017.
