Video: Arca - Thievery *Aus' Premiere*
A very special - and weird - Aus' premiere for you of Arca's latest single video clip.. As mentioned when we posted the track INITIALLY, we've been excited about the work of producer Arca since some time early last year, and we've been feverishly anticipating new music from him since. His dense and darkly-layered productions are about to find a home on Arca's debut album, Xen, due November 7 via Mute and Create/Control. He released Thievery a couple of weeks ago, an immense and immersive experience, cinematic in scope, unpredictable, and so beautifully composed, and we're incredibly excited/honoured to premiere its twisted video clip today, directed by longtime collaborator Jesse Kanda, who is also in charge of the album artwork. There's not really many words for the clip, except that it feels exactly right for a producer like Arca, so just enjoy it below: Follow Arca: FACEBOOK // WEBSITE

I can't really do Arca's sound anymore justice than that, and his dark, dense, atmospheric brand of electronica will soon find its way onto his debut album, titled Xen, and due Nov
