Xen is the debut studio album by Venezuelan electronic musician Arca, released on 4 November 2014 through Mute Records. The album was recorded over a largely improvised six-month period in 2014. The title of the album is a reference to Ghersi's "feminine spirit" as portrayed in the album artwork and videos

Arca - Xen The tracks Alejandro Ghersi makes as Arca rarely cohere to normal ideas of structure or rhythm. His early Stretch releases for UNO made the human voice sound malleable and sickly. Then, of course, came Kanye West's Yeezus-where Ghersi could be heard in the evil, warped snarl of tracks like "I'm In It" and "Send It Up"-and his equally challenging work with FKA twigs. The album is named after Ghersi's alter-ego: "Xen is not really a boy and it's not really a girl, and her mere existence is kind of repulsive and attractive at once," he recently told Fader. It's that contrast of beauty and ugliness that Ghersi explores over these contorting, confusing 40 minutes. Xen" Released: 17 November 2014. Sad Bitch", "Wound" Released: 16 April 2015.

The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

Arca will release his debut album, Xen, on November 3. After a period spent darting around US underground staples like UNO NYC and Hippos in Tanks, Arca has settled on Mute as his record label. It marks a follow-up to last year’s &&&&& mixtape, and comes with artwork by regular Arca collaborator Jesse Kanda. Arca, of course, was one of several underground producers drafted in to work on Kanye West’s Yeezus, and also contributed production to Twigs’ LP1. Stream the first track from Xen, ‘Thievery’, below.
