简介:  集当代名音乐制作人、前卫音乐家、环境音乐大师等身份于一身的传奇音乐人,2018年完整Box Set登场。   6CD集结Brian Eno从1997年至今所策划装置艺术展所独创之音乐作品,超过半数为先前未曾释出之创作。   专辑设计交付长期合作艺术师Nick Robertson操刀,豪华精装6CD独立CD封套包装,内附64页导读手册。   现年69岁、1970年正式出道的Brian Eno,堪称为音乐界的哲学家、思想家,他不只创造出环境音乐这样前卫的电子乐派,更将音乐的边界不断拓宽,激发出各种新兴的可能性,同时也与许多知名音乐家合作,举凡David Bowie、U2、James Blake、Coldplay、Damon Albarn、Talking Heads等等,都曾与Brian Eno这位大师进行音乐上的共事,而不仅身为一个前卫音乐大师,Brian Eno同时也是一位视觉艺术家,以光与影像与声音所创造出实验性的艺术创作,而也因为他前卫的艺术品味,他的作品在威尼斯双年展、北京日坛公园、圣彼得堡,到悉尼歌剧院等地都曾受邀展出。2018年,Brian Eno诺透过唱片公司的协助,将自己从1986年开始所举办的艺术展所特别编写的音乐创作、还有从未释出的作品,更有未来将有机会在展览上听见的最新创作,集结为一套6CD的完美典藏套装【Music For Installation】,可以说是把这32年来Brian Eno的音乐阶段作了一个总结,也让所有乐迷可以一次完整品味到Brian Eno音乐上的精华。你从没有听过的Brian Eno、你期待最新的Brian Eno,全都在【Music For Installation】。   Since the 1970s, Brian Eno has composed music for numerous art installations, combining video, lighting, and sculpture with music that is often generative. He initially experimented with tape recorders, overlaying looped musical passages of differing durations, resulting in a constant stream of audio flowing in an infinite number of sonic combinations. He likens this to a river – something that is always changing, but always the same. He also began experimenting with video art, turning televisions on their sides and treating them as "video paintings." He envisions slowing music down so that it’s more like a painting, and animating paintings to that they’re closer to music. He’s also created works that emphasize the importance of speakers as instruments, including sculptural objects called "speaker flowers" that sway in response to the sounds playing from them.   Eno’s Music for Installations box set collects audio excerpts ranging from a 1985 exhibit to pieces composed for installations that haven’t been conceived yet, and may never. Some of these recordings have been issued as limited CDs available through Eno’s website or at installations, but many of them are previously unreleased. Many of these tracks, of course, are finite excerpts from endless processes, serving as audio documents of the ephemeral. Even though the audio recordings are lacking the visuals and spatial properties of the installations (which often involve strategic speaker placement, resulting in differing experiences depending on where the attendee is located), the recordings serve their own purpose, and repeated listening reveals previously unnoticed details and nuances. While typically atmospheric and meditative, there’s also somewhat of a dark undercurrent to pieces like "Five Light Paintings." The nearly hallucinatory "77 Million Paintings" (previously released as a DVD with generative video software) seems to suspend time, with slow, shredded voices and eerie whooshing noises. Eno has exhibited this piece at least 50 times and has listened to it for hundreds, even thousands of hours, and says that he never gets tired of it. Just as trippy and immersive is "I Dormienti," a 1999 piece composed for an installation by Italian sculptor Mimmo Paladino, which was released as a CD and art book. In contrast to the lengthier, process-based pieces, Making Space (initially released in 2010) includes several shorter, more rhythmic pieces, some of which include lush guitar waves by Leo Abrahams.
