Xen

Arca is the incarnation of Alejandro Ghersi, a 24-year old Venezuelan producer and musician releasing his debut LP, Xen in the fall. Having previously released EPs, mixtapes, and produced for the likes of FKA Twigs and Kanye West, Arca's music is still uniquely his own. Xen is a very personal record for Arca, with the underlying concept revolving around gender without defining the album. Rather gender is a vessel with which Arca can expose his own vulnerability. Arca works closely with visual artist, Jesse Kanda who created the album cover for Xen.
