Brian Eno - Long Now

Brian Eno - Long Now
Aa rare promotional CD once offered to wine sellers (!). It features five unreleased tracks, in the same mood as his 2003 album, "Bell Studies for the Clock of the Long Now": compositions that experiment possible melodies and atmospheres for bell towers. Relying on  digital bell sounds, processed through various reverbs and delays, these compositions create strange and hypnotic soundscapes with cycles of repetition ruled by mathematical laws.

Brian Eno says, "The experiments sometimes try to simulate existing bells, and imagine different sorts of bells, bells which may indeed be physically unmakeable."
