I just can't stop listening to his albums ! They are so magnificent - especially his early ones. Here Come The Warm Jets is just so fantasmo ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not sure I know who you're talking about here... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Brian Eno ! The Welsh Wizard ! Produced Talking Heads, couple of U2 albums - as well as his fantastic array of Ambient Albums ! Was in Roxy Music, too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aha... ok :) might have heard his music... I guess you reccomend me to listen to his music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fuck yeah ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well... can't now =( but I can check it out this autumn. Or is buying one of his albums any risky, like he has made bouth bad/good stuff? Can you describe his ambient + recommend your fav, and what most consider to be his best work? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No mention of his membership of 801 in that discog. Best forgotten I s'pose? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he makes aphex look like an amateur |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
buy these ones: Here Come The Warm Jets Before and After Science Ambient 1: Music for Airports Ambient 4: On land Apollo: Atmospheres and Landscapes That'll keep you going, and you'll love it ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so what is his ambient like? soundscapes? melodic? dark? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all of the above - download some and you'll see. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
SAWII is a blatant rip-off of Eno, btw |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well... that's kinda what I meant with the buying part - I can't download any until this autumn... so if I buy - it has to be good... more like: if it is that good - I need to buy it! I am confused over what I mean |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, OK - buy any of the five I listed ! The first two aren't ambient - get Apollo: Atmospheres and Landscapes, I guess. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thoose non-ambient... what are they? are they rock? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
. . . Kinda - you really got to listen to appreciate them ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I support the brian eno appreciation thread . Greetz, Pieter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, thanks for the tip. I will check out some of that work. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hope you do ! :) |

...it's taken me a while to find something that could move me like S.A.W.2 does, but I think I've finally found it in brians ambient work , If I ever met him, I could definitely say "Mr Eno your ambience is phenomenal" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
1/2 from Music For Airports is one of the best things ever created by man. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love brian eno. i can listen to music for airports over and over again and never get sick of it - it's so beautiful. his productions for talking heads were quite nice too. he also played keyboard for genesis for a while. i love writing eno-style ambient, because it's very relaxing. but no one else seems to like it. :-Z |
||||||||

"Mr Eno your ambience is phenomenal" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was just about to say.... 1/2 is fantastic! it's definitely one of my favorites by eno. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
YAY! I agree! finally. :) brian eno is amazing, he's the ultimate ambient creator. All of you who make ambient stuff should be thankful for him, he's the one who invented it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i am very thankful, for your information. :-D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Eno didn't invent ambient music! He only defined the term. You can look back to Debussy and Satie for inspiration. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Actually, God created ambient music when he created sea-shores! :@ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shops created ambient music sections after Brian Eno made Another Green World. Which is a good place to start, Eno-wise, since it contains both ambient and non-ambient stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Another Green World IS a good album, but for me, it's missing something. I just heard Taking Tiger Mountain (by Strategy) for the first time last night. Another of his early 'pop' albums. Some fine tracks on there - need to listen to it a few more times to get the full flavour tho, obviously. |

In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree In the sky, there is a cloud containing the sea In the sea, there is a whale without any eyes In the whale, there is a man without his raincoat A fantastic album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now dont forget the albums he made with harold budd.. 'the pearl' and 'ambient 2: the plateaux of mirror' are two of the best ambient albums ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Xceque or anyone that can answer where is: In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree In the sky, there is a cloud containing the sea In the sea, there is a whale without any eyes In the whale, there is a man without his raincoat from?????????????????? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep - I've had The plateaux of mirror for a while, and I got the Pearl the other. They are very good, especially The Plateaux of Mirror. |
||||||||

talking about sea shores, there's a sculpture at the sea wall near me thats like giant organ pipes that go down to the bottom of the sea wall, and when the tide is in it makes musical notes on the pipes, most of it's pretty random, but sometimes it hit's some eerie beautiful notes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the fact that he was in roxy music (a very shitty and cheesy band, just listen to the album avalon and tell me its good...try it) detracts a lot from his overall status but his ambient albums are great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ENO! I LOVE ENO! the four solo albums, the rock one's will forever be classics! the lyrics speak to you......directly.... Akkad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
He left Roxy Music after only two albums, in 1973. I don't you can hold them against him in any way. As soon as he left, they started going downhill. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's from "Mother Whale Eyeless" on the album "Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)" Roger Eno is also quite good. His album with Kate St John, the Familiar, is lovely :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i prefer spiritualized |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
music for airports is fantastic. I listen to it almost every night. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got a couple of his LPs: Another Green World and My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Despite great critical praise for the second one, I find it quite dull really. Another Green World was okay, with some good stuff, but a lot of it was distinctly silly. 'Ending: An Ascent', though, is brilliant. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was quite disappointed with his Byrne collaboration - I much prefer the one he did with Cale - Wrong Way Up - far superior in my opinion. you wanna hear byrne and eno -- listen to talking heads albums #2 and #3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the talking heads and eno collaborations were some of the best things to come out of the 80's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
. . . late seventies :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, i didn't mean to imply i hated the 80's in that post, just that the eno/heads collabs were one my fave things from the 80's. :-D i like the cure and the police as well.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I prefer music for films. I think that's his best album imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

TAUTOLOGY Nexus ! repetition ! "I think" "imo" |
||||||||

Brian Eno played in Genesis? When would this have been? Tony Banks played keyboards in genesis, for their whole run I believe... I have all the early PEter Gabriel albums, and it's all Tony Banks, and I believe it was all Tony Banks with Phil Collins leading... guess it doesn't matter really, but I was a huge Genesis fan and never knew this! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, so I have two Eno albums... tell me, what is My Life in the Bush of Ghosts like? I've heard it's more world music like... which intrigues me to say the least... I'm very interested in world music, and wonder what people here think of that album... also, I'm very interested in hearing Ambient 3... I've never seen it around, and have only read about it, but it sounds interesting... lots of string instrumental ambient music on there... |
