Ziggy 10,363 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Would agree. I think sometimes people feel unsure of how to review arca because of the hype and because of the unconventionality of their music. So they just say oh it’s amazing regardless of whether it really is or not. personally, I felt the other kicks were good, iii was the clear stand out, and in some ways it felt a little like arca being ready to drop and move on which gives the others a 7ish range Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember how many albums made planets after Chromatica came out? Gaga didnt create cyberpunk aesthetics nor did she popularize them lmao. Frederick has been doing this type of work for a long time and Arca has been playing around with this aesthetic before working with Frederick. This was before Chromatica was even announced: https://www.instagram.com/p/B3PhXcwFYUv/?utm_medium=copy_link Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as Gaga visuals when she first came onto the scene.  Also, I didn't want to say that artist which made this is less authentic but the artists that are put into the visual like that. The fact that we already seen Gaga do the similar visuals and shoot takes away the "wow factor" from Arca's photoshoot. At least it does for me.  But overall I love this aesthetic. Artist that creates this POV is amazingly talented and I can't wait to see what else they have in store for us. So what should Frederik Heyman do? Change his whole aesthetic from one artist to another? I’m not sure what it is that you’re trying to convey  Directors, photographers, visual artists are not just tools for pop stars to own.

Nothing, he should continue to create and get inspired by each artist he works with. Why do you guys give so much relevance to my personal experience?
