I got it after a couple of rave reviews, (if you can call an ambient review a "rave review" heh) and found it to be a tad boring and tedious, with very little in the way of interesting textures, I suppiose I "don't get it"

I like it alot. There's so much to be found in that music. It sounds happy, sad, melancholic, eerie and comforting all at the same time. I can hardly describe it. I don't listen to it alot, but whenever I do it always gets to me. Better than SAW II imo...

I like it a lot.. It's like the same thing over and over, but it doesn't feel repetitive at all... Really great ambient-style minimalistic music. Eno knows his biz for sure.

eno was an innovator of mood, but I have yet to hear any work by him that's worth a second listen.

also very brilliant is Bang on a Can's cover version of the entire MFA album. With 'real' instruments. Even though I am a real Eno nut, I prefer this. So beautiful!

Funkmaster, I agree with you. MFA has so much space in it. Maybe we are so overfed with permanent stimulation of the senses, that for many people
much space in it = boring

I thought it was ok but it wasn't nearly as good as people had been saying. It don't know...the melodies didn't evolve much, it was too predictable somehow. Predictability isn't necessarily a bad thing when it comes to ambient but it felt like he just had some samples he trigger again and again.
It isn't bad, just didn't do it for me.

the space is great I think... it really puts emphases on each note...
and really, I don't think this is meant for 100 percent focus on the music you know... I had it playing yesterday while I worked a bit, and it was great!
