CD Reviews

Eno lands in the 90s
05/27/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Having followed Roger Enos Career somewhat closely, I've grown familiar (pun intended) with a Roger Eno as a classically trained pianist/composer writing modern chamber music, and his few ventures into the ambient world haven't been all too interesting. This album, however, takes Eno ahead about 150 years, and lands him in the late 1990ies, teamed up with a techno wizard named Lol Hammond. If you liked Budd/Zazous Glyph, this is definitely for you, repetitive piano/atmospheric patterns teamed up with drum loops of the not too intrusive kind."
Okay if you like drum machines

"I found the plinks and plonks of the drum machine (courtesy of Lol Hammond I guess) on most of the tracks really off putting in this album. I particularly don't like fake wooden sticks and hand claps. A personal dislike granted and in my view very 80's not late 90's. Enough to make me avoid playing it very often. Perhaps my loss but give me the likes of "Lost in Translation", "Between Tides", "Swimming" or the more recent "The Night Garden" any day. Other than that musically it's as moody as any of Roger's other albums (most of which I'd rate 4+)."
Wonderful!

"Eno's manifold machinations on this album are refreshing. I have rather enjoyed his amalgamation of drums, piano, and spirited uplifts. It's a shame this artist isn't as revered as others in the New Age genre. I prefer Roger Eno to standouts such as Steve Roach."
