2) arca is a french project initiated by Joan Cambon and Sylvain Chauveau at the beginning of the year 2000. Arca is a reference to the portuguese writer Fernando Pessoa, the word "arca" means "chest" in Portuguese (Pessoa left most of his writings inside a chest that was discovered after he died).
arca is inspired by music, cinema, literature, photographs, daily occidental sounds…
Arca uses warm electronic sounds, mixed with organic instruments and rainy guitars to draw melancholic landscapes.
