Nerve Net (Expanded Edition)
Nerve Net, the twelfth solo studio album by Eno, is the most strident and assertive Eno solo release since 1977’s Before And After Science. It steers clear of Eno’s ambient work, focusing instead on mostly broody jazz- influenced and rock-oriented compositions.
Spinner with Jah Wobble (25th Anniversary Expanded Edition)
Spinner fills an intriguingly permissive space in the Eno catalogue, where he steps back from his own strict editorial criteria and placed himself “in the hands of Jah”. Includes “Stravinsky” (an original from the Glitterbug soundtrack) and “Lockdown”, a new track by Wobble.
The Drop (Expanded Edition)
The Drop, explains Eno “is how a visiting alien might interpret jazz after reading a detailed explanation”. The results are seventeen tracks of angular melodies, bent guitar notes, piano drizzles and manipulated effects that introduce us to new musical equations leaving a bewildering hybrid cinematic spaciousness.
Wrong Way Up (30th Anniversary Expanded Edition)
Wrong Way Up is Brian Eno and John Cale’s first official album, originally released in 1990. This 30th anniversary reissue marks a milestone in their careers, featuring two bonus tracks and an insightful interview with Eno. It’s also his first song-based collection since Before And After Science (1977).
Neroli (Thinking Music Part IV) (Expanded Edition)
Reissue of the critically acclaimed 1993 single-track album. The extra track New Space Music is a fine example of Eno’s inimitable long-form drone music and a satisfying companion piece to Neroli.
Shutov Assembly (Expanded Edition)
Reissue 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.
