Arca
Kick Iii
If KiCk i is 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, without sacrificing any of her uncompromising experimentation; the rising cycle. 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, anthems for the
basement-dark queer clubs of our cyberpunk near-future; the climax of the cycle. With kick iiii, the cycle resolves, and
a new species of xenopop emerges, sensual and serene. Arca's talents as a composer and sound designer take the lead on
closing track "Paw," setting melodies to drift on deep, gentle waves of orchestral ambience, an oceanic bliss. On kiCK
iiiii the ambient ecstasy transitions swiftly into lullaby-like compositions as we come to the conclusion of the KICK
series; the renewal stage.
