Robyn is back, and not quietly. After eight years, the Swedish pop icon is gearing up to release Sexistential, her long-awaited new album landing. The title track set the tone for this comeback: playful, provocative, and deeply personal, with Robyn rapping about one-night stands while ten weeks pregnant following IVF. It’s bold, funny, intimate, and unmistakably her. As Arca put it: “I’ve loved Robyn’s music for years, and am psyched to offer my support and encouragement to her. I want her sense of humour – bold vision and sense of melody is so important! And this track I’ve remixed, ‘Sexistential’, deconstructs pleasure, play and motherhood in such a refreshing way. Purr!”
Now that energy spills into the remix itself. Arca takes “Sexistential” and pushes it further into club territory, bending its emotional core into something stranger, darker, and more physical. She threads in her own vocals too, turning the track into a dialogue rather than a straightforward rework. It feels less like a remix and more like an alternate dimension of the song.
And this collaboration might not stay confined to our headphones. Both Robyn and Arca are set to headline C2C Festival in Turin in 2026. If we’re lucky, maybe this remix will make its way onto the stage when they’re both there. Fingers crossed.
