Arca, the pseudonym of Venezuelan-born, Brooklyn-based producer Alejandro Ghersi, has torn apart Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie" in a new remix for the Dazed 100.
The big pop belter has been mutated into an almost unrecognisable form by the FKA Twigs and Kanye West producer; some fragments are faintly familiar, but for the most part this may as well be completely fresh.
Listen to the distorted, warped sonic torture here.
