I've been so into his music the last couple days... well, the cds I have by him anyways... I bought Music for Airports on sunday, and it's pretty cool... gorgeous music, and there's so much space in it... I especially love the first track 1/1, it's amazing... so gorgeous and hypnotic, and very subtle... 1/2, and 2/2 are both killer too! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I bought Music for Airports as well today, love the first track, haven't really heard the others. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, the first track really is amazing... the piano part is really nice, but the way the synth parts kind of interact with the piano is especially awesome! |
||||||||

I'm feelin' ya on that. I have no excuse not to own shitloads of Eno because the music shop I most often go to has a fair amount of his most popular stuff, for £5 a pop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I want to get lots more... I've never been much into Ambient, but this cd really is nice... and On Land is quite good... I want to get more of his stuff! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Freakish, that's the only other CD I have by him as well :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..Excluding the two I have downloaded.. Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks and Ambient 3: Plateaux of Mirror. Both of which I fully recommend to yah. |

MUSIC FOR AIRPORTS is brilliant. I love Brian Eno. The album can really get your mind moving sometimes. |

i dont listen to much eno except for music for airports speaking of which, found an old original vinyl pressing of it in my dads closet when we cleaned. nice condition too. looks neat. ....now all i need is a record player |

I saw 'Music for Airports' performed live at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam in 1998(I think). It was a truly ambient affair ie just piped throughout the airport, and rather wonderful. I could be wrong about the year cos Holland's a bit hazy in places y'know... |

I heard a Brian Eno interview on MPR years ago about that album... consequenceliatively it's the only one I really listen too... well I sleep to it in the shuffle with Mum and other stuphe |
||||||||

|
i'm gonna have to get up off my arse and buy some of his stuff.....i downloaded music for airports and its top notch. |

deep blue day is beautiful |

I love the one he did with Harold Budd as well! Ambient2... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There is another collaboration with Budd -- "The Pearl". Similar to Plateaux of Mirror - I'm sharing it on slsk. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I haven't heard that one, but I really adore everything I've heard by Budd so far. I think I'll have to collect his entire discography some day, and I'll start with 'Music for 3 pianos'... Heard that one? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heard of it - haven't managed to hear it yet tho :| |
||||||||
|

It's beautifull! |

Ya know its Robert Wyatt from Soft Machine that plays piano on the first track from Music for Airports. interesting fact |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i have no albums of eno but ive been meaning to get at least one of his album's for a while, i might just get one soon. |
||||||||

You definitely won't be hurting for selection of quantity and quality... ;) |

The best Eno by far 'My life in the bush of ghosts'. Best Eno by a mile. Totally fucking wicked. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yuppity yup yup yup! I can't plug this album enough at the moment. His 'Oblique Strategies' (basically a set of cards with really fucking general advice on them, designed to be selected at random when you have to make a decision) are real nice, too. I think there's a SIG generator version out there somewhere, too... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The music Eno did with Talking Heads is perhaps their best stuff EVER. REMAIN IN LIGHT = absolute brilliance. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also 'Fear of Music'. I think Eno wasn't as involved in that, but it crosses that nervy white punk-funk thing with African rhythms really well. There are so many fucking bands ripping off that sound at the moment as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tell me about it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Eno also worked with Genesis as a keyboardist at some points - though I'm not really a Genesis fan at all. I also enjoy Music for Films and Ambient6 OnLand. Is it just me or is Ambient6 a bit dark? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sure you're not on about Roxy Music? I think he maybe produced an album for Genesis though... I've not heard Ambient 6. His is kinda pointless. I wasn't really that impressed by the possibilities offered by the software, you could do a lot better in Buzz or something really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah man, On Land is Ambient 4... and it's the last officially titled Ambient release... there were only 4 of em... also, I really think you're mistaken about the genesis connection there... Tony Banks was the keyboardist with Genesis for the whole life of Genesis... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Brians ambience is incredible, I wonder if richard and brian would get along together in the studio? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
roxy music is one of the worst bands out there, avoid them |
