Brian Eno - ENO (2024)
Official Soundtrack to the generative film ENO

Mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road. 17 tracks, spanning many decades - 3 of them unreleased. And look at what’s represented here: A brand new 2024 beautiful vocal track, a gorgeous highlighted Apollo track, one of the best tracks from Secret Life with Fred Again… the lead-off track from the Cluster & Eno album featuring Holger Czukay. Awesome. Fripptastic Sky Saw from Another Green World, the famous track Spinning Away with John Cale, a track from Finding Shore - his collaboration with Tom Rogerson… the heartbreaking There Were Bells to close… and that’s just the first record.

The ridiculously unreal Third Uncle from Taking Tiger Mountain, Eno/Byrne from Everything That Happens Will Happen Today, rare track from My Squelchy Life, collab with Jon Hopkins from Small Craft On A Milk Sea… Hardly Me from the almost unnoticed stunner Forever Voiceless… a centerpiece from the masterpiece game changing album My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts, the amazing Fractal Zoom from the underrated Nerve Net, another unreleased track from Eno’s Sonos Radio Station, and finally the powerful live version of By This River, played live at the Acropolis in 2021.

I’ve never been a big collector/listener of compilations, but this is special. Eno is a treasure.
