Announcing: Arp’s Zebra + New Single “Fluorescences”

 

Arp - Zebra Press Image 2

A mutant offspring of diverse stylings, unlikely convergences and unfixed constellations, ZEBRA is the fifth full-length album from Alexis Georgopoulos – aka Arp. Emphasizing points of connectivity between far-flung traditions, the album is a post-everything symbiosis of ancient to future psychotropics. It’s as naturalistic as it is alien, disrupting outdated boundaries between musical traditions, hierarchies and genre politics.

Clear-eyed and illuminated, “Fluorescences,” the first single off the forthcoming release, has the feeling of an image coming into focus. Permeated with a soda-pop fizz, the track’s production draws inspiration from an intersection of 80s Japanese avant pop, Compass Point synth funk and Brazilian textures, hinting at a futurism informed by what might be called optimism.

ZEBRA is out June 22 on LP, CD and digital formats. Pre-order the album here.
