holy shit
I AM COMPLETE
much better than new 0PN
Hyped. First listen through now. Cya in an hour /mu/
>mfw 'faggot' is the best song on this
Can we talk about Arca 24/7, please?
Also, Xen was good but far from his true capability. Mutant is what I waited for and even more.
Goddamn this guy.
yay my venezuelan brother doing it big :)
But Ash Koosha is better...
Haven't listened to this yet, but am I the only one who would have liked to listen to some distorted rapping like in Brokeup and Focus?
>>60502364
Longest track on the album, also the best.
Why is this always the case.
>>60502001
I thought Mutant was worse than Xen. Reused samples from his Sheep single.
>>60502001
>now noticing this demon thing has gold teeth.
>>60502518
I really like when he distorts raps. In fact that's that's probably holds the last part of &&&&& at the top for me.
>>60502001
decent
>>60502665
well Sheep wasn't really "offcial"
but he also reused pieces from ????? (A)
Anyone else uncomfy. Like really really uncomfy?
>>60502835
I think that's the point.
>>60502835
im amused and uncomfortable, that's probably how anal feels like
>>60503006
With the occasional moment of pure ecstasy.
>>60503006
>>60503037
this
i couldn't have said it better, this album is like gay anal sex
>>60503178
Incredible if you're into it but not for everyone?
I don't love it. He still can't move deeper than the surface level and compose for his life.
>>60502752
Yes he released it officially.
found this album immensely boring. coudn't even get through it all. one of the most over-hyped electronic musicians in years, and that's with lots of competition
>>60502835
>>60503006
>>60503037
>>60503178
Xen has left me disappointed, hope this one will be better.
>>60502714
&&&&& > Mutant > Stretch 1 & 2 > Baron Libre > Sheep > Xen
someone explain me the appeal of this guy's music and how his stuff is different to the plethora of noise/glitch fusion musicians from the late 90s and early 2000s
>>60504323
he's queer and has dem aesthetics
collaborated with kanye, twigs, bjerk and kelela
>>60504347
the new OPN is good but most of the tracks are forgettable
>>60504323
his aesthetic and his image
>>60504323
it's not, really.
>>60504391
>>60504431
aphex's collabs w/chris cunningham is what made him special from the rest of the idm group back in the days so fair enough i guess
>>60504323
His music sounds very alien and eerie.
>>60504457
not really....
>>60504295
I'm almost done listening to Mutant, my thoughts exactly.
Actually, I'd say Mutant = &&&&&.
someone post a link
>>60504295
Stretch 2 > Mutant > &&&&& > Stretch 1 > Xen.
...and I really love Xen.
>>60504323
It's like The Angelic Process tier.
You know, back in the 00s there was a fuckton of doom/drone superapocalyptic sounding bands out there. But none of them could make all that destruction sound beautiful at the same time like TAP did.
>>60504691
Except Arca isn't all that great or special
>>60504712
lol
Who has the best dick? Death Grips or Arca?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssnhHiG-4v0
>>60504347
less of a disappointment, at least
>>60502001
This will be sad
>>60504559
yeah mutant has similar sounds to &&&&&, less hop-hop infusion though
>>60504641
Xen is good, just a lot of filler tracks
>>60504762
that's jesse kanda
>>60504758
lmao
I'm excited to see what this guy is going to release https://soundcloud.com/wmstrecs/lord-raja-shook
l-lewd https://vimeo.com/146106501
is the official release any different from the leak?
>>60505016
>https://soundcloud.com/wmstrecs/lord-raja-shook
He's already got one album for Ghostly International: Constant Moth, released last December. Quite okay.
>>60504834
Its arca
all he does is bite better modern artists, who are biting better artists from the past
>>60506260
explain
>>60506719
OPN, FlyLo, Ae, AFX, etc.
>>60506741
>flylo
you're grasping for straws
>>60502364
I agree with this post so fucking much. I kind of want him to indulge in Stretch's style a bit more. I really loved what was happening there.
>tfw that wish will never come to fruition
>>60502513
I think they're both on the same level. Their eccentric use of samples and their quite impressive ability to create an atmosphere out of thin air so seamlessly attracts me to both equally.
>>60506260
Grabbing inspiration from critically acclaimed, already well established artists isn't biting.
>>60505706
its jesse
>>60506741
DL Link?
Im hoping to buy the CD if I see it in stores
>>60506260
idgaf he makes good forwardthinking music
>>60504402
rockist cant remember le bleepity blooputy
>>60506741
out of all the possible artists as a point of reference for arca's style, you come up wit deez?
alright then, if nobody else will.
>Best Track
Anger.
>Worst Track
Mutant.
also husbando
>>60507817
>Best Track
>Anger
It reminds me of Igorrr so much thooo.
I'm going with either Sever or Snakes.
>Worst Track
Mutant
>>60507918
>>60507817
some of the regularest taste i've seen
So far, this is some of the best music I've listened to in a while.
