Arca Releases New Double-Sided Single, ‘Puta / Sola’

The tracks were debuted during the Venezuelan artist's performances at last month's Coachella festival

Arca has released a new double-sided single featuring the new tracks ‘Puta’ and ‘Sola’.

Out now through XL Recordings, the release was previously teased in February via the Venezuelan artist’s social media channels. The two tracks were debuted live last month during her performances at Coachella festival.

In a statement, Arca said: “‘Puta’ and ‘Sola’ are songs I’ve been perfecting for years. Taking my time writing, recording, producing and mixing them on my own, slow cooking, has been important to getting the music just right. I’m so proud of these songs, and both Daniel Sannwald and Stillz are geniuses, the videos are so amazing.

“The themes lyrically span both extravagant sensuality for the dancefloor on ‘Puta’, as well as the vulnerability of tenderness and love in ‘Sola’. I hope they bring joy and comfort as well as confidence to all my fellow mutants!”

Watch the videos for both new tracks below.

Puta / Sola is out now on XL Recordings.
