Ramona Lisa was an alias of Caroline Polachek. Her album Arcadia, originally released in 2014, was Polachek’s first self- produced solo record and the first release by Pannonica, part of the Bella Union family.

Completely composed in MIDI, it is a concept album of love songs that are nature allegories, and vice versa, which Polachek calls ‘Pastoral Electronic Music’. The making of Arcadia was a year¬long process that began and ended in an empty studio in Rome’s Villa Medici and while on tour with her band, Chairlift.

The record was made entirely on a laptop without instruments or external microphones - all vocals were sung directly into the computer, making use of hotel closets, quiet airport gates, and spare dressing rooms. Although the album was created on a laptop, the result is a lush and uncannily tangible world of warm textures, reminiscent of analog tape processes rather than a hard drive. Virtual oboes and organs interweave with synthetic insects and quivering sine waves, animated by Polachek’s vocal at it’s most delirious and intimate
