Brian Eno – Lux

Considering the musical background of the Godfather of Ambient Generative Music, the introductory notes for Brian Eno‘s new album Lux are extremely short.
Of course: for those interested, Brian Eno does not need any further introduction.

Compared to its two predecessors released on Warp Records, “Small Craft on a Milk Sea”  and “Drums Between the Bells”, this release is quite different. No relatively short poppy collaboration tracks this time: Lux is a slowly developing, 75 minute composition.
A return to “classic ambient” form, the kind of “music for thinking” Eno has created from the early eighties. A genre that since then has further developed and has diverted into a lot of different branches: drone, dark ambient, dance ambient, improv, soundscapes, field recordings. Each sub-genre with their own leading artists venturing into new territories.  
But, at the very root of it all, there’s only one true Master.
