Yesterday my whole nuclear family was here at home, now the college kid just landed back at LGA, and my wife and the high school kid are on a road trip to visit another Big Ten school, and I have the house to myself.

Seems like a good afternoon to play some #Eno on #vinyl. For a long time I didn’t care for this album because its tape-collage approach seems kind of arbitrary and formless compared to some of his other #ambient works which even though they sometimes sound haphazard are often based on an underlying formal methodology. The On Land stuff is more just a collection of various textures, and recently I’ve begun to really like it for that. It’s just a friendly intuitive human sort of thing, improvisational in a way really.

Brian Eno – Ambient 4: On Land

I think the thing that got me more into this album is: I play it loud, and think of it as somewhat on the gentler side, but still essentially a form of #noise music
