what happened to slocki's sad youtube thread?

thought this revive would be about the Film Music compilation set to be released.

I have his PDFs somewhere compiling them.

Roger and Brian Eno Announce New Album Mixing Colours🕸

Missed this. Roger and Brian have their first joint album out on Deutsche Grammophon, March 20. First track is up:

📹

This received a deluxe expanded reissue in July that I wasn’t aware of. It’s on Spotify – but since the tracks weren’t all jammed onto the end (a good thing since the closer is amazing) I haven’t quite been able to discern what the new stuff is.

Loved this record when it came out – it will probably always be the record that helped soothe my nerves through the first few weeks of quarantine. As the weather turns colder it seems a good time to revisit.

Funny, I've been relistening to this album today and it's even lovelier and more mysterious than I recalled. Made me very proud when my daughter came downstairs, listen to a second of the music, then asked me if it was Brian Eno!

Josh, by this evidence, you are a father who’s doing it right.

This is a few years ago, and yes I know I glued Eno's synth on the wrong way, don't know how I made that mistake.

Opal is almost 4 now and more inclined to listen to the Frozen soundtrack, but this was a proud parenting moment for me.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 06:10 (three years ago) link

Opal? Is her middle name Editions EG?

Hideous Lump, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 11:49 (three years ago) link

It’s Judith. The Opal is actually a Syd Barrett reference despite the different spelling.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 12:57 (three years ago) link

Dan, I was thinking of your post as soon as Josh posted his. I must be doing something wrong with my girls because they mostly think I’m a dork for playing this stuff.

Naive Teen Idol, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 13:24 (three years ago) link

NTI, you are also a father who’s doing it right. Keep the faith.

Lol, to be fair, my older daughter is 16! She's learned that Eno can be good for studying.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 14:10 (three years ago) link

I did not come here for “my daughter” content :-/

minute 13:22 of the Unforgettable Fire documentary, during the recording of Pride

edge: i didn't feel like we peaked, necessarily.

eno: you want to go out there and peak, then?

classic

Heard someone suggest that True Thrush by Dan Deacon was a tribute to Eno’s vocal albums and now I can’t stop hearing it

frogbs, Friday, 26 February 2021 01:36 (three years ago) link

XP - Eno is gold all the way through that documentary, telling the little girl outside during the eclipse that his name is Quincy Jones.

Anyone read his new book? It's in my Amazon cart but I've yet to pull the trigger

Paul Ponzi, Friday, 26 February 2021 12:54 (three years ago) link

I read it back when it first came out. Well worth your time, if only for his weird digressions (like, iirc, tasting his own urine out of curiosity, or, not unrelated, supposedly sneaking a vial of his urine to a Ducahmp exhibit to spray on his "Fountain," reasoning that Duchamp would have wanted that).

lol, I've been listening to the expanded reissue of Mixing Colours for a month or so now, and all this time I've been assuming it was initially recorded like 30 years ago... imagine my surprise when I looked at the liner notes and saw it's originally from 2020!

This is one of the finest examples of an ambient recording that can phase shift between inconsequential and arresting... like an optical illusion, sometimes you can compel this to happen with mysterious concentration, other times it seems beyond your grasp. I love it!

Huh:

Brian Eno is pleased to share with you the launch of his new station, The Lighthouse, out now on Sonos Radio HD, which features decades of unreleased music from his extensive archive. ⁠⁠
The Lighthouse will serve as a living collection where Eno will premiere both past and new musical projects directly to fans across the world, giving listeners rare insight into an illustrious career spanning more than 50 years of creating, producing and redefining music.

The renowned musician will premiere 300 tracks on the new station, including unreleased, old and new work

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 16:04 (two years ago) link

Would prefer this as a gigantic SoundCloud dump tbh, but intriguing!

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 16:15 (two years ago) link

I think he said that right now the earliest track is from 1990, which is slightly less interesting, because it probably just means tons of generative stuff, but who knows.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 9 June 2021 16:17 (two years ago) link

his generative music is good

eisimpleir (crĂźt), Wednesday, 9 June 2021 16:58 (two years ago) link

I agree, but it's generative, so he could have his own station playing a song that is constantly changing forever if he wanted to.

I thought this revive was for the great new Eno interview on Rick Rubin's podcast.

I thought it was for two of his best regarded collaborators—Budd and now Hassell—going inside six months.

Naive Teen Idol, Tuesday, 29 June 2021 13:24 (two years ago) link

I've never seen this, it's a good adjunct to the re-release of the '95 diary, lot's of footage in his studio while working on Force Marker (that got used in the Heat soundtrack)

Not sure if this is the best place to post, but we've lost another collaborator - Djivan Gasparyan died on Tuesday. I got his two All Saints released as part of Warp's AS reissue series a few years back and they are truly gorgeous. Gutting to lose so many of the All Saints / Opal set in such a short space of time :(

I’m sure I can’t afford this, but it looks like it would sound amazing.

those are gorgeous, it's kind of weird that there's no specs at all though

"edition of 50"

"enquire"

I'm pretty sure most people can't afford it. Anyway Im' sure the lights cause a hum that gets picked up by the cartridge or whatever, but it does look cool.

dan selzer, Monday, 13 December 2021 21:07 (two years ago) link

That hum is a seed tone for the generative music that the turntable plays when it's not actually playing a record.

20,000 GBP

FFS

chaos goblin line cook (sleeve), Thursday, 16 December 2021 00:48 (two years ago) link

Wow that’s even pricier than I was expecting

It does change color when you scan the album cover, that is pretty cool

frogbs, Thursday, 16 December 2021 00:52 (two years ago) link

As a limited edition of 50, by a major artist, I don't know what price would be fair, but 20,000? Sure, why not.

In fact, I got a tape of that in my stocking in 1990. I think that was my last year with stocking stuffers, too. I retain the association with Toblerone.
