I really enjoyed writing about David Bowie's Low for the @1001otheralbums.com project. The record wasn't just my entry point for listening to Bowie's work beyond his '70s radio hits, it was also my introduction to Brian Eno and a gateway to explore the music that was influencing them, as well as the music Low would go on to influence.

Too intelligent for #art and #culture ?

Brian #Eno really captures the situation faced by many young people today - indeed all of us: “I had met a 15-year-old who was talking about doing her A-levels. She said, ‘Well, I really want to do art because that’s what I like, but my teacher said I was too bright for that.’ I thought: that is really the death of a culture. When we decide that stuff we’ve been doing for the whole of human history is not as important as learning about #FinTech or #computer programming.”

The Racketeer, the Pilot the Land Girl and her Lover: Harry Fehr updates Donizetti's E;ixir of Love to the Second World War for English National Opera.

Not all of it quite works, but it's wonderfully well acted and sung.

And More – “Amrita”

Warm and fuzzy instrumental ambient pop that sounds like an outtake from Eno’s Another Green World. Seriously, this would sit nicely alongside any of that feted album’s instrumental tracks, with its shifting chords, subdued atmosphere and melancholic guitar line.
