Arca Shares New Track, ‘Mequetrefe’

It's the third to be unveiled from her forthcoming album

Arca has shared a new track called ‘Mequetrefe’.

The track, Arca says, "invokes the tenderness behind expressing who you are without shame, and the confidence and bravery it requires, because expression of gender-nonconforming self-states in a public space can often result in static within your environment." It’s the third track to be unveiled from the Venezuelan artist’s forthcoming album, KiCK i, following on from ‘Nonbinary’ and ‘Time’, and can be heard above.

XL will release KiCK i digitally on June 26, 2020.
