LP, Single Sided, Reissue, Remastered Pan (2020) For anyone who can remember, Arca’s &&&&& was a moment. Its 25-minute stretch of coiling, contorted grime and glitch; dub and hip h op dropped with the buzz of an impending co-production credit on Kanye West’s Yeezus in 2013. That gesture was a remarkable challenge to the form of the mixtape, which was a relatively new trend taking hold of the online-oriented underground at the turn of the 2010s.
