All Saints

All Saints Records was established in 1991 and is named after the street in West London. The label's first releases were from Opal Records/Land Records, which had closed that year as Brian Eno's management company wanted to focus on artist management rather than being a label. All Saints has since continued to build upon those initial releases with new acts as well as with artists already associated with the label.

Brian Eno is an electronic musician and producer known for his multifaceted interests outside of music, especially in technology. He was born on May 15, 1948 in Woodbridge, Suffolk, UK.

Eno started his musical career with the band Roxy Music and went on to produce a number of highly eclectic and ambient electronic and acoustic albums. He is widely credited with coining the term "ambient music" through his series of albums recorded between 1978 and 1982.

In addition to his solo work, Eno has collaborated with artists such as David Byrne, David Bowie, Robert Fripp, Robert Wyatt, Jon Hassell, and Cluster. He has also worked as a producer for bands like U2, James, Coldplay, among others. Eno's contributions to music have earned him numerous accolades including Best Producer at the BRIT awards in 1994 and 1996.

Reissue of Brian Eno's 1992 album dedicated to Russian artist and friend Sergei Shutov, and a continuation of the atmospheric ambient work found on records such as On Land and Thursday Afternoon. Eno had discovered that Shutov often painted to his music but was unable to obtain many of his records in then-communist Russia. He resolved to collate a tape of previously unreleased material (recorded between 1985 and 1990) to give to Shutov and upon listening himself discovered a previously unnoticed thread that ran through the pieces, creating an unintentional full length work. Each piece is named after and derived from one of Eno's audio-visual installations.

CD - Double CD Casebound with 16 Page Booklet. CD edition includes a second disc containing 7 completely unreleased recordings from Brian Eno archives, taken from the same period as The Shutov Assembly.
