A penchant for avant-garde and improvisation had gotten Sakamoto interested in electronic music early on. Thousand Knives took several months to record as Sakamoto would be busy during the day with his session work and would only record at night.
If Kick I was a multidimensional self-portrait that held all of Arca's many mutations, Kick II sees her deconstruct reggaeton rhythms she grew up listening to in Caracas, balancing structure and chaos to create her most accessible work yet.
Kick III sees her returning to the club nights that shaped her early adult-hood where Arca was born: the surrealist DJ, warping dance music structures to fit her singular vision-relentless rhythms to drive listeners into uncharted states of euphoria.
With Kick IIIII, Arca focusesentirely on quieter ambient pieces, mainly on piano, plucked strings and swirling pads. Famed Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto makes a guest vocal appearance on "Sanctuary".
Engineered and produced by Brendan at his Quivvy Church studio in Ireland. This 2016 LP version is also a double LP like the original release, but comes with new artwork and a changed track ordering.
