Listen free to Arca Mutant Alive, Mutant and more. 20 tracks 62:07. It was released on November 20, 2015 via Mute. Mutant builds on his 2014 album Xen to create a hypnotic and eveloping world. But among that group was someone working on Kanye Wests 2013 album Yeezus, and Arca wound up contributing to four tracks, including Blood on the Leaves and Im in It. That same year, he also produced for FKA twigs, helping to create a futuristic pop that was simultaneously dense and spare and defined by its elusiveness. Xen, Arcas 2014 full-length debut, expanded Ghersis range further, sounding like a bent version of modern classical music crumpled into a ball with a post-dubstep beat tape.

Listening to his sophomore album, you can see what they liked. Dark, chilly, abstract and atmospheric but grounded by a visceral sense of rhythm, Mutant wobbles around like a creature thats just fallen from space. Its best moments-the fractured interlude Vanity or quasi-industrial Soichiro -seem to abide by their own laws of physics, splintering under invisible pressure. Ghersi expands on this complicated headspace on Mutant, a set of tracks that feels like a hard-won celebration of individuality. A few of Sheep's pivotal moments reappear here, providing some of the album's touchstones. Else manages to be both delicate and heavy, while Hymn's intensity reaches fittingly awe-inspiring levels. Ghersi uses chanted vocals to humanize the mechanical chaos of Umbilical, and renders them unearthly on the eerie, frantic En. Of course, Mutant is much more than a rehash of Sheep. Genre: IDM. Mutant may be some of his most challenging work yet, but as Arca's music becomes more abstract, the viewpoint behind it comes into focus in ways that embrace strangeness, ugliness, and beauty equally. Full Review. Best of 2015. Worst of 2015. The records lack of organization and resistance to stasis work against its accessibility. Those willing to mine such a dense work will be rewarded in a visceral sense, but may be left groping in the darkness for a specific, externally-fabricated meaning. Either way, the abstractness and wandering abandon of Mutant define not only the album, but Alejandro Ghersis approach to music. Read full review
