{"product_id":"arca-xxxxx","title":"Arca - XXXXX","description":"\u003cp\u003eArca's XXXXX arrives on vinyl as a 16-track plunge into the Venezuelan producer's most balanced and searching work in years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2026 through XL Recordings, it is Alejandra Ghersi's first full album since her five-part Kick series wrapped up in 2021. The project began life as a mixtape before growing into a complete record, and it was first unveiled through a two-hour livestream. Where Kick sprawled outward across five volumes, XXXXX pulls inward, trading maximalism for focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sound swings between bruising distortion and ambient calm. Tracks like \"Raver\" and \"Syncope\" lean into blown-out, heavily processed rhythm that feels built for a very strange club, while \"Willow\" and closing track \"Sueño\" open up space for the quieter interludes that hold the whole thing together. The switches are sudden, never careless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs ever, Arca treats the body, identity and sound itself as raw material to be bent and reshaped. The noise always serves a purpose, sitting right beside moments of real tenderness, and that contrast is what gives the album its pull. It feels personal without ever becoming closed off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who has followed Arca from Xen and Mutant onward, XXXXX feels like a homecoming of sorts, the sound of an artist fully at ease with her own extremes. On vinyl, those extremes finally have room to breathe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57518444675377,"sku":"191404166215","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Arca-XXXXX.jpg?v=1794677745","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/arca-xxxxx","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
