Ryuichi Sakamoto, Visible Cloaks, Air‘s Nicolas Godin, Chassol, Lafawnduh, Lucrecia Dalt, Laurie Spiegel and more have contributed tracks to a very short album titled PRSNT. How short? All 12 tracks are all approximately 32 seconds long.

Each musician was given a fascinating challenge to create engaging compositions with real artistic merit, inside the confines of this shortened span. Akin to Brian Eno’s famous Windows 95 start-up music, the time constraints are crucial, and the compositions are deceptively complex and more substantial than expectations of their nano nature would suggest.
