CAVES: A COMPILATION OF SILENCES
OTHER PEOPLE, 2021
Caves is a compilation by Other People made up of eight timers for everyday use. Artist were asked to make “caves” for a length of silence of their choosing.
This collection of silences and music can be used as timers for cooking, meditation, running, walking, sleeping or anything you want ♡
Features Laraaji, Lucrecia Dalt, Ana Quiroga, Sary Moussa, Will Epstein, Aho Ssan, Nicolás Jaar and Marzio Zorio.
I made the 20-minute timer initially for myself so that I didn’t have to use my phone alarm when I meditated (…) Then I shared it with some friends and they liked it so I thought it would be nice to ask other artists to make short songs that prepare people for moments of silence. I imagine these could be used as timers for anything: cooking, running, taking a short nap, etc. I hope they’re useful in these loud times.
