Brian Eno

Ambient 1: Music for Airports (1978)

Ambient

This album made history, as it was (arguably) the first album to have been created with ambient music being the overriding concept. Brian Eno is a pioneer of music, and this album is a part of the testimony to that. It still sounds new today, 31 years later, and is just as inspiring and emotive. It takes you away to a different place where nothing much happens, but in the most perfect way imaginable. Turn it on, lie down, close your eyes and just listen: this is something that Eno challenges us to do with his Ambient albums, and it's not easy.

The Great Synchronisation

A few minutes ago I was sitting on a sofa with nothing to do, thinking, "maybe it's time for my annual blog entry". You may be wondering whether you should bother reading something that's been created simply because I had nothing better to do, but I submit to you that all good things are created that way. Think about it.
