Music for Elevators

After Finnish artist Jimi Tenor and ambient music icon Brian Eno, 2023 the exceptional Italian musician Caterina Barbieri was entrusted with the task of creating the appropriate sounds for the futuristic-looking lift. Music for Elevators was available for one year.

The Italian composer and musician Caterina Barbieri has become one of the most respected modular synthesiser acts worldwide in recent years. She is considered a virtuoso in her field. Her elegant, ecstatically intense synth pieces are of universal beauty. Timeless, mystical and trance-inducing, they open up references to sacred music, are simultaneously cosmic and intimate. Conceptually, too, they go into depth, revolving around themes such as cyberculture and posthumanism; the relationship of man to technology and his environment.
