story
organic instruments’ debut release, a nuanced grand piano, designed and recorded with detail for the highest degree of realism. with a deep sound, rich in warmth and energy, arcadia is an authentically crafted addition for all compositions. recorded intentionally in mono, the microphone was positioned to one side, inline with the raised piano lid. the result is a more natural and neutral audience perspective, rather than that of a close-up player, simultaneously allowing arcadia to blend well with other instruments and hold its own in a solo performance.
