ABOUT CURRENTS
Currents is a music mix created for the LACMA’s David Geffen Galleries with the intention of approaching the building, its architecture, and the artworks through a lens that reflects the city of Los Angeles itself: open, layered, and in motion. As the galleries unfold without a prescribed path, the music follows similarly. It moves across genres, eras, and cultural references, allowing for unexpected connections to emerge. The result is not a fixed narrative, but an invitation: to move, to listen, and to discover relationships between sound, space, and image as they unfold in real time.nal compositions, and DJ mixes
