Brian Eno’s new ambient album, Reflection, is out on New Year’s Day through Warp. A four-minute clip from the album was premiered today on BBC Radio 6, as Spin points out. Listen to it on Mary-Anne Hobbs’ page, you can hear the track at the 1:08:45 mark or start the minute before to hear an Eno-penned preamble read.
A “generative” version of the album will be on Apple TV and iOS, where users can explore its different visual and sonic aspects. “It’s a lot like gardening,” Eno explained. “You plant the seeds and then you keep tending to them until you get a garden you like.”
