Our Take

In their second collaboration, FRIPP & ENO take us on a cosmic journey through soundscapes that are equal parts ethereal and otherworldly. Evening Star is a 1975 prog-rock odyssey that sees these two musical visionaries at the height of their experimental powers.

The album opens with the hypnotic "Wind on Water," a track that swirls and ebbs like a gentle breeze on a starlit evening. Fripp's intricate guitar work dances effortlessly alongside Eno's atmospheric synths, creating a sonic tapestry that is as intricate as it is immersive.

Tracks like "An Index of Metals" push the boundaries of what ambient music can be, with layers of shimmering sound that build and swell in a mesmerising crescendo. The haunting "Evening Star" transports the listener to a realm of pure sonic magic, with Fripp's searing guitar riffs cutting through the swirling synths like a comet through the night sky.

Evening Star is a true masterpiece of avant-garde music, a testament to the unparalleled talent of Fripp & Eno. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that pushes boundaries and challenges conventions. So sit back, close your eyes, and let the music of FRIPP & ENO transport you to a galaxy far, far away.

About the artist

Fripp & Eno

Fripp & Eno: A Dynamic Duo of Experimental Excellence If there's one thing that can be said about the iconic pairing of Robert Fripp and Brian Eno, it's that their musical collaboration knows no bounds. These two legends of the avant-garde have been pushing the boundaries of sound for decades, creating a sonic landscape that is as vast and unpredictable as the universe itself. Fripp, the virtuosic guitarist known for his work with prog-rock pioneers King Crimson, and Eno, the master of ambient electronica, first joined forces in the mid-1970s to create a series of groundbreaking albums that would forever change the course of music history. Their first collaboration, "No Pussyfooting," released in 1973, introduced the world to their unique blend of experimental guitar loops and otherworldly synths. The album was met with critical acclaim, with Rolling Stone declaring it a "sonic masterpiece that defies categorization." Since then, Fripp & Eno have continued to push the boundaries of what is possible in music, releasing a string of influential albums such as "Evening Star" and "The Equatorial Stars." Their ability to seamlessly blend Fripp's intricate guitar work with Eno's ethereal soundscapes has solidified their status as one of the most innovative duos in modern music. Whether you're a longtime fan of Fripp & Eno or just discovering their music for the first time, one thing is for certain: their artistry knows no bounds. So sit back, relax, and let the sounds of Fripp & Eno take you on a journey through the outer reaches of the musical cosmos.
