Keyboards by Paolo Cattaneo.
Recorded and mixed at Particles Factory, Italy.
The CATTANEO kit contains the CATTANEO upright acoustic and electric piano + the CATTANEO cassette, an exclusive bonus instrument only available in this kit.
The upright piano is an intimate piano with a unique sound that is simply perfect for songwriting, indie/pop and introspection.
The electric piano is a truly fabulous experience. Sampled directly from Cattaneo’s modified and “augmented” Rhodes piano, it is unlike any other electric piano you may have heard.
Everything you need to create beautiful piano music and more in one solution, with an exclusive gift: CATTANEO Cassette is an author’s selection of cassette loops and noises from Paolo Cattaneo’s own collection.
