Where do you start with Brian Eno?

  Anyone getting into Eno probably already knows this, but Music for Airports is right up there with Aphex Twins Selected Ambient Works for its influence on ambient music going forward

    Oh wow… you’ve just picked 2 of my favourite artists & albums. 🙂

  Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks is probably most like the EP you’re listening too (they both have The Ascent on them).

  Of the ‘Ambient’ releases, I’ve never really got into ‘Music for Airports’, but ‘Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror’ has some very pleasant piano-led tracks, and ‘Ambient 4: On Land’ is weirdly terrifying at times, but something I still regularly listen to.

  Not music, but I enjoyed Adam Buxton’s interviews with Eno:
  Part 1
  Part 2

  You start with the first release, like you would for any other artist

    Interesting. Have you got any other banal advice? When leaving a house in winter put your coat on outside so you feel warmer

      Just for reference, in the case of Eno, this is the worst idea anyway - “Here Come The Warm Jets” is kinda… not that good.

      Still a fun listen though.

  Thursday afternoon, neroli.

    This is the objective scientific answer, OP.

    The Fripp collaborations also merit your attention.
