 | My Life in the Bush of Ghosts [Read More ...]
Description: Brian Eno and David Byrne's My Life in the Bush of Ghosts appears downright visionary. With its "found" vocals, cut-and-paste arrangements, funked-up rhythms and embrace of influences from all around the globe, the duo's controversial work anticipated the creative cross-pollinati... |
 | Ambient 1: Music for Airports [Read More ...]
Description: Eno's theory of the "discreet music" he called ambient was far from the modern chill-out room: the idea was that it should function at very low volumes, unobtrusively coloring the atmosphere of a room. Evolving by tiny gradations, the long pieces of Music For Airports (the first ... |
 | Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks [Read More ...]

 | Ambient 4: On Land [Read More ...]
Description: Released in 1982, On Land is Eno's most mature, perfect ambient work. Combining low, rumbling synths with eerie banging and clanking and the occasional wild-animal chirp or grumble, this recording places the listener alone, in the midst of a massive piece of sonic landscaping. An... |
 | Pure Moods, Vol. III [Read More ...]
Description: What's most surprising about the Pure Moods series is not that it is so popular, but that the music on it actually represents some of the best New Age and modern instrumental music, rather than scraping the barrel. For every piece of Enya pop froth--like her "Only If," which open... |

 | Passengers: Original Soundtracks 1 [Read More ...]
Description: U2 should be celebrated for doing what so few major rock bands have managed: They broke the chains of their own stardom. For a while it looked like they'd carry the "monsters of rock" banner into institutionalized and calcified dotage like the Who and Pink Floyd before them. But ... |
 | Discreet Music [Read More ...]
Review: here comes the warm misstep:Well, Discreet Music is certainly *exactly* what all the reviews said it was (and warned me about)- nothing but soundtrack music. Pretty, lovely, tolerable SOUNDTRACK music, by the same man who just FLOORED me with all kinds of experimental pop music ... |

 | Ambient 3: Day of Radiance [Read More ...]
Review: The odd duck out in the Ambient series, but still essential.:Sometime in 1979, Brian Eno met a man in Washington DC named Edward Gordon performing in a park on a zither, an eastern stringed instrument. Eno liked what he heard so much that he decided to utilize Gordon's talents in... |

 | Beyond Even (1992-2006) [Read More ...]
Review: Not good enough? Not "commercial enough"?:What is lame about this offering that AMAZON did not think that this music, or these artists deserve time spent on making mp3 previews of the offered tracks. At least a few of them.
There is so much junk on this site that has a preview ... |
 | The Million Dollar Hotel: Music From The Motion Picture (2000 Film) [Read More ...]
Description: Wim Wenders's films are inextricably linked to their companion soundtracks, with music playing as essential a role as any star actor--just see Wings of Desire, Until the End of the World, and Paris, Texas for proof. And now we have The Million Dollar Hotel. On this outing Wenders... |
 | Another Day on Earth [Read More ...]
Description: Another Day on Earth is an ambient song cycle that is full of yearning and a mood that Brian Eno has called "brave and resigned." Even in song, Eno is a master of ambience, creating detailed soundworlds and lyrics that don't so much make sense as create a feeling. It's taken him... |
 | Thursday Afternoon [Read More ...]
Review: LOVE LOVE LOVE this CD!:The way that I can best describe this musical recording is to say that Brian Eno subtly shifts you into a 'musical hologram' if you will; a wall of sound surrounds and emcompasses you, and the music becomes part of your experience.
It ia a CD I have pla... |
 | Songs From Cool World [Read More ...]
Review: Cool World Soundtrack:I really enjoy this album. It has a lot of techno and hard rock songs. I dont know if people realize, that this is the background music, when they are watching the movie. I was able to picture the scenes in my mind as the different songs came on which I thou... |

 | Music for Films [Read More ...]
Review: Okay but not great:I am a big fan of Brian Eno's early abstract work. I like the way he took simple ideas and explored them until they became transformed into something completely different. For example, on "Music for Airports" he recorded women singing single notes, made tape ... |
