Chris Douridas

Nicolas Jaar talks about the influence of John Cage (Jaar's mother was part of Merce Cuningham's dance troupe) and the loudness of silence in his life. He pointed out that the first loud silence he experienced as a child was the six year absence of his father.
KCRW’s Resident DJ is a sonic laboratory where artists are invited to reinvent, reimagine, and lean into their most eclectic, creative impulses. Resident DJ airs every Thursday night/Friday morning from midnight to 1 a.m. PT, and can be streamed anytime on the KCRW app. Just in time for Pride Month, Hercules & Love Affair will be our Resident DJ for June 2026.
