Il Circolo Arcipelago è un circolo ARCI (Associazione Ricreativo Culturale Italiana)
in una piccola e nebbiosa cittadina del nord, Cremona.
L'obiettivo principale di Arcipelago è quello di creare opportunità di partecipare attivamente alle attività culturali della propria città, di creare i propri spazi per esprimersi e di rendere la cultura accessibile a tutti. Tra presentazioni e letture di libri, mostre di fotografia e arte, contest di danza hip-hop e freestyle, stage di kung fu e chi più ne ha più ne metta, il nostro obiettivo si svolge principalmente con attività musicali. Per questo abbiamo deciso di registrare qualsiasi live che ospitiamo sul nostro palco, dalla band più giovane ed inesperta a quella un pò più "navigata". Questo, secondo noi, permette a tutti di avere un'opportunità in più di promozione virale via internet, tutti possono ascoltare i live e tutti ne possono usufruire. Indipendentemente dalla qualità. 

Circolo Arcipelago (ARCI= Recreative and cultural italian association)born in a foggy town in Italy, Cremona.
The main goal of Arcipelago is to create opportunities to actively participate in cultural activities of th city, to create spaces to express ourselves and to make culture accesible to all.
Between book presentations and readings, art and photography exhibitions, hip-hop dance contests and freestyle, kung fu stage and so on and so forth, our goal is mainly reached with music. For this reason we decided to record any live that we host on our stage, from the young and inexperied band, to the more "sailed" ones. This, we believe, allows everyone to have more chance of viral promotion, everyone can listen and everyone can enjoy every type of music we do, regardless of the quality.
