Product Description
To commemorate the large-scale exhibition "BRIAN ENO AMBIENT KYOTO" featuring Brian Eno, the master who revolutionized visual arts, opening in Kyoto on June 3, 2022, four of Eno's masterpieces produced between 1992 and 1997?'Nerve Net', 'The Shutov Assembly', 'Neroli', and 'The Drop'?along with the ultra-rare album '77 Million', which was only released at the exhibition held in Japan in 2006, will be reissued in paper sleeve, high-quality UHQCD format! As Eno himself has stated, 'Drop' is a completely new musical style that captures jazz from an ambiguous and unconventional perspective. Having drawn inspiration from Miles Davis's ambient music, Eno has re-approached jazz using generative music techniques, presenting a system for playing jazz in his own style with 'The Drop'. Originally released in 1997, this album remains a work worthy of further exploration, especially in an era where jazz approaches ambient music are no longer uncommon. It goes beyond mere superficial musical characteristics such as tranquility and serenity, presenting jazz as a system that seems to endlessly drive itself forward as part of the atmosphere of the environment surrounding people. In recent years, particularly since the critical pandemic began to engulf the world, amidst the proliferation of music that can be described as ambient jazz, this masterpiece shines once again.
