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

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 (crüt), 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 it was for two of his best regarded collaborators—Budd and now Hassell—going inside six months.

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 :(

"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.

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

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

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.

Listened to some of that Lighthouse show today. Really enjoyable! Did he do more than that one episode?
― Naive Teen Idol, Thursday, 3 March 2022 04:53 (two years ago) link
I remember when that Lighthouse radio project thing came out, they were saying they'd keep adding music to it and might even go earlier than the 90's. I'm very curious whether they ever actually did add more to it. Is there just this wide, wild Eno vault quietly being opened up over there? I guess I'd have to pay to find out.

curious about the new album, personally I find his more recent vocal work (e.g. this new single and The Ship) to be just a bit too chill for me, the last thing I really connected with that I easily recall was "This" from Another Night On Earth... um 20 years ago. still love the dude and will listen to anything/everything tho

stewart brand counterpoint:
Stewart Brand is held up as one of the key figures in Silicon Valley’s history, but as they seek to celebrate his life, there’s an ongoing reassessment of his impact and the world he’s worked to create. @BigMeanInternet tells me his billionaire backers aren’t ready to hear it. https://t.co/Pp2j80XmYX— Paris Marx (@parismarx) July 28, 2022

That Stewart Brand film inadvertently makes him come off as an idiot unless it's been recut?
― with hidden noise, Saturday, 6 August 2022 15:37 (one year ago) link
Stewart Brand became famous by being nominally part of the counterculture while eschewing anything that reeked of politics, spirituality or even morality. He specifically rejected the value of anything called wisdom - "the he said she said of history", he called it. Burning Man's polyamourous STEM nerds creating toothless art in a secluded desert space is kind of the ultimate expression of his ethos. May his name be forgotten.
