Album Notes & Community Reviews

Dedicated to a Russian painter unable to access Eno's previous works, this release compiles a series of previously unreleased ambient soundscapes recorded between 1985 and 1990. Bypassing any discernible melody or rhythm, the glacial, highly atmospheric synthesizer drones shift gradually to evoke profound states of quiet reflection.
