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.

Back In Stock

Brian Eno's album Ambient 4 - On Land. Available here on Standard Black LP and Standard CD.

unlike most of brian eno's conceptually unified ambient projects, 'ambient 4: on land' is something of a patchwork. recorded in six studios between 1978 and 1982, the eight pieces - ranging between three to nine minutes in length - are a curious mixture of solo works for treated instruments and full-fledged collaborations. 'lizard point' is the most interesting, with the synthesizer, bass, and guitar of material's michael beinhorn, bill laswell, and axel gros providing a denser and more varied musical backing than most of eno's ambient works. 'shadow,' a duet with trumpeter jon hassell, introduces a world music element similar to their fourth world one: possible musics duet album, and 'dunwich beach, autumn 1960' introduces guitarist michael brook and multi-instrumentalist / co-producer daniel lanois, who became one of eno's most valuable collaborators throughout the '80s. the solo pieces refine ideas first explored on earlier ambient works, though with greater subtlety and increased tonal colour.
