Clark: "Eno/Clark Mix"

All Saints, a label that was launched in the early 90s, has just released four 90s-era Brian Eno LPs: Nerve Net (1992), The Shutov Assembly (1992), Neroli (1993) and The Drop (1997).  Electronic composer Chris Clark, (or as he's better known, Clark), pulled together a mix culling samples of each of the Eno releases.  It's a pretty fluid 34 minutes of instrumental (and some vocal) works and provides a convincing sales pitch for the releases.  I myself have unfortunately never heard these albums, so Clark's mash-up has given me reason to explore them.  If you want to check it out, you can do so via Soundcloud below:



If you'd like to find out more about the reissues, I've included info which was provided courtesy of Julian T. Schoen — Artist, Event & Project Management.  There are also two Eno cuts you can sample: "Prague" and "Fractal Zoom."

This week saw the release of an ambitious Brian Eno reissue project, featuring 4 of his classic 90s records, each paired with their own bonus disc of previously unreleased, new and unheard Eno material from that time.

Today, Warp artist Clark presents a mix of Eno music showcasing music from all 8 discs of these reissues. Hear the mix now via Pitchfork, and head over to the Eno & All Saints shops for more info on the reissues.

The Shutov Assembly

The Shutov Assembly (1992), is an ode to Russian artist and friend Sergei Shutov, who used to paint to Eno's work but had difficulty accessing it through Soviet Russia. Eno collected unreleased material on a tape to give to Shutov, only to discover a common thread that transformed this into a complete body of work. The bonus material includes 7 unreleased recordings taken from the same period.

Neroli

1993's Neroli is named after the sensual oil derived from the Seville orange, and Eno links this LP to the sense of smell, fragrance and perfume. It is one solid piece with no break and is considered Eno's ultimate realization of "mood music". Also included is the previously unreleased New Space Music, a single, hour-long piece of ambient, long-form drone music complimenting Neroli.

CD Track Listing

Disc 1 - Neroli: (Thinking Music Part IV)
1. Neroli

Disc 2 - New Space Music
1. New Space Music

There is no vinyl edition due to the artist's wish not to break up the music with split sides.
