Sandii. 1979!! Omg. So perfect acid sound!

Arp is a critically acclaimed, experimental electronic music producer with a penchant for exploring Fourth World and New Age influences in a fluent, abstract fashion. Over the years he has released a plethora of material, predominantly long form albums, on the likes of Rvng Intl, Smalltown Supersound and Geographic North.

However, it is Mexican Summer of which he has become most closely affiliated as of late, having released three consecutive albums with the Brooklyn based record label.

Earlier this month marked the release of ‘New Pleasures’ - an album designed to challenge the concepts and notions of the records that have come before, opting for an all out dystopian vision whilst still being influenced by the roots of which all of this came.

When asked to describe the strange, alluring sense of familiarity and dislocation the new Arp album evokes, Georgopoulos says: “sometimes the most alien thing is simply seeing what we take for granted from a slightly different angle.”

This mixtape is perhaps a further exploration of where the Arp project and mentality sits in the present.
