Arca is a Venezuelan-born, Brooklyn-based producer whose music could loosely be described as "hip-hop," but that doesn't really do it justice; he's recently known for production credits on Kanye's
Yeezus and FKA twigs'
EP2. Joining him is L.A. DJ
Total Freedom, one of the few DJs whose sound matches his name: His sets are all over the place in the best possible way ("totally free," see?). The pair is joined by
Jesse Kanda performing live visuals, a British artist who collaborated with FKA twigs for her surreal video "Water Me."
