Ambient 1: Music for Airports

Ambient 1: Music for Airports (1978) more music like this

by Brian Eno

Four subtle, slowly evolving pieces grace Eno's first conscious effort at creating ambient music. The composer was in part striving to create music that approximated the effect of visual art. Like a fine painting, these evolving soundscapes don't require constant involvement on the part of the listener. They can hang in the background and add to ...

Roxy Music

Roxy Music (1972) more music like this

by Roxy Music

Falling halfway between musical primitivism and art rock ambition, Roxy Music's eponymous debut remains a startling redefinition of rock's boundaries. Simultaneously embracing kitschy glamour and avant-pop, Roxy Music shimmers with seductive style and pulsates with disturbing synthetic textures. Although no musician demonstrates much technical ...

My Life in the Bush of Ghosts [Bonus Tracks] (1981) more music like this

by Brian Eno/David Byrne

A pioneering work for countless styles connected to electronic, ambient, and third-world music, My Life in the Bush of Ghosts expands on the fourth-world concepts of Jon Hassell and Brian Eno's work with a whirlwind 45 minutes of worldbeat/funk-rock (with the combined talents of several percussionists and bassists including Bill Laswell, Tim ...

Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by 'the X-Files'

Songs in the Key of X: Music from and Inspired by 'the X-Files' (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

This album purports to be an attempt at recursion by the creator of The X-Files, Chris Carter -- songs inspired by the show that he hopes will provide further inspiration for the show (just as Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand" did for the "Ascension" episode.) Contributions here include Mark Snow, with the title music, the Foo Fighters with a grand ...

Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks

Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks (1983) more music like this

by Brian Eno

An exquisite experiment, Apollo takes Brian Eno's spacescapes from albums like Another Green World and arranges them with some heavenly pedal steel guitar by Daniel Lanois. The recording engulfs the listener and captures the feel of space travel, weightlessness, and other sensations vividly. It's also perhaps Eno's warmest record ever. In the end, ...

For Your Pleasure

For Your Pleasure (1973) more music like this

by Roxy Music

On Roxy Music's debut, the tensions between Brian Eno and Bryan Ferry propelled their music to great, unexpected heights, and for most of the group's second album, For Your Pleasure, the band equals, if not surpasses, those expectations. However, there are a handful of moments where those tensions become unbearable, as when Eno wants to move ...

Thursday Afternoon

Thursday Afternoon (1985) more music like this

by Brian Eno

The soundtrack to a VHS cassette of Christine Alicino's "video paintings" (which can be viewed properly only when the monitor is stood on its side), Thursday Afternoon is an hour-long, uninterrupted ambient piece created in Eno's "holographic" compositional style, in which even the most brief snippet of music is representative of the performance ...

The Best of Roxy Music

The Best of Roxy Music (2001) more music like this

by Roxy Music

Released to herald a reunion of the band and superseding several out-of-print predecessors, The Best of Roxy Music is an excellent summary of the group's hits and album highlights between 1972 and 1982. There are really two editions of Roxy Music, the glam rock unit that achieved widespread U.K. success from 1972 to 1975, and the more polished one ...

Music for Films

Music for Films (1978) more music like this

by Brian Eno

Recorded intermittently between 1975 and 1978, Music for Films compiles moody, instrumental electronic pieces intended as soundtrack material for imaginary motion pictures; the songs are brief and fragmentary, ranging from the haunting "Sparrowfall" to the luminous, densely layered "Quartz." ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide

Ambient 4: On Land

Ambient 4: On Land (1982) more music like this

by Brian Eno

On Land represented a significant move away from the strategies Brian Eno had employed in earlier ambient releases such as Discreet Music and Music for Airports. Instead of using a specific process to generate music with minimal interference from the composer, he here opts for a more gestural and intuitive approach, creating dreamy pictures of ...

Discreet Music

Discreet Music (1975) more music like this

by Brian Eno

The latter part of 1975 was a remarkably creative period for Brian Eno. With his masterpiece Another Green World, Eno began moving away from the structure and sound of pop music toward a more static instrumental model, influenced in part by Erik Satie and strongly informed by his prior collaborations with Robert Fripp. Recorded just a month after ...

Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror

Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror (1980) more music like this

by Harold Budd & Brian Eno

The second in Brian Eno's ambient series, The Plateaux of Mirrors fuses the fragile piano melodies of Harold Budd and the atmospheric electronics of Eno to create a lovely, evocative work. In sharp contrast to the exaggerated pieces found on his debut, The Pavilion of Dreams, this record finds Budd delivering sharp shards of piano notes pregnant ...

Dune [Soundtrack]

Dune [Soundtrack] (1984) more music like this

by Toto/Brian Eno

Dune was never going to be an easy film to score. Dense, overreaching, and confusing, David Lynch's interpretation of the canon of Frank Herbert surely didn't leave many stylistic decisions strolling in through the front door. Yet despite the soft rock pabulum of its past, Toto constructed a luxuriant and peculiar soundtrack that injects Dune with ...

Beyond Even (1992-2006) (2007) more music like this

by Robert Fripp & Brian Eno

Just when you thought they've ceased for good, they come up with something like this. Beyond Even (1992-2006) is yet another collaborative project by guitarist Robert Fripp and "ist" Brian Eno. It's true that the pair's No Pussyfooting and Evening Star, recorded in the '70s, were groundbreaking recordings in the treatment of atmospheres, the ...

Neroli

Neroli (1993) more music like this

by Brian Eno

As beautiful and sparse as anything produced to date, ambient pioneer Brian Eno sets a mood of quiet contemplation that, as he himself states in the liner notes, is a piece to "reward attention, but not (be) so strict as to demand it." Single notes resonate like heavy drops in deep water in a seemingly random but harmonic pattern that shifts ...

Another Day on Earth

Another Day on Earth (2005) more music like this

by Brian Eno

Finally bored with ambient music, a genre he pioneered in the 1970s, pop polymath Brian Eno emerged with Another Day on Earth, his first solo recording of "conventional" songs since Another Green World. From the rhythm track of opening song "This," the sound is unmistakable. A quirky hook covered in layers of atmosphere and a bouncy loop, it's a ...

Drawn From Life

Drawn From Life (2001) more music like this

by Brian Eno & J. Peter Schwalm

Following four years after The Drop, Drawn From Life sees Brian Eno collaborating with German DJ J. Peter Schwalm. (Music for Onmyo-Ji, a previous Eno/Schwalm work from 2000, was released in Japan only.) Those who soured at the distant crispness of The Drop will find this to be a more inviting listen, even more so than Eno's 1996 collaboration ...

Married to the Mob

Married to the Mob (1988) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Married to the Mob was Jonathan Demme's follow-up to Something Wild and may not have been as fresh as that film, but the soundtrack makes up for it. Drawing from previously released material as much as brand new songs, the soundtrack begins with Sinéad O'Connor's "Jump in the River," a rocker that sets the tone for the film's mix of danger and fun ...

New age heavyweights, many with ambient leanings, dominate the Celestial Journey sampler, which features contributions from Brian Eno, Steven Halpern, Christoph Franke, Constance Demby, Michael Stearns, Gabrielle Roth, Patrick O'Hearn, and Robert Rich, among others. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide

Fourth World, Vol. 1: Possible Musics

Fourth World, Vol. 1: Possible Musics (1980) more music like this

by Jon Hassell/Brian Eno

Largely thought of merely as a mostly stillborn offshoot of Brian Eno's larger ambient music series, the Fourth World series of albums, in collaboration with trumpeter Jon Hassell, is actually an entirely separate beast. Fourth World, Vol. 1: Possible Musics starts off from the same basic idea as Hassell's previous solo albums, like Earthquake ...

Ambient, Vol. 2: Imaginary Landscapes

Ambient, Vol. 2: Imaginary Landscapes (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

The second volume in Virgin's priceless Ambient series is a bit of a retread from the first, alternating classics from Virgin's rich back catalog with the new school of ambient electronica (of which, the label's store is much harder to come by). The result is an Orb remix (of the Grid) instead of a normal Orb track; the only other contemporary ...
