About Me

'Arcana' is the brainchild of Peter Christiansen; a Danish producer based in London.

"I was knocking out beats not long after conception; a time which my mother refers to as 'a lot of kicks', and this never stopped since, although the beats have become quite a lot more complex involving syncopation, shuffling and accents. "

These days Arcana is working on a 'World Electronica' project, which takes him and the listeners all around the world, virtually. Hopefully this will enable people to listen to music outside their genre; letting people who listen to world music in on the sounds of electronic music and open the eyes of all the ravers out there towards exotic real instruments. But indeed, one can only hope.
So far the project has included collaborators from UK, Switzerland, Germany and Japan.
