Division for NTS Radio commissioned a guest mix from Cairn Desk Composition Front. Cairn Desk “explores a wholistic approach to the presentation of musical work that does not shy away from demanding new/specific context thru experience. [They] make an effort to enable the practice of listening thru design. [They] work in spite of and against the hydrian industries of anxiety and consumption.”
