Our Take

Brian Eno's "Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)" is a journey through the eccentric mind of one of music's most enigmatic figures. From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where avant-garde meets pop in a whirlwind of sonic experimentation.

Eno's trademark synthesizers and innovative production techniques are on full display here, creating a soundscape that is both otherworldly and strangely familiar. The album's eclectic mix of styles, from the upbeat dancefloor vibes of "Third Uncle" to the melancholic musings of "Put a Straw Under Baby," keeps you on your toes, never quite sure what to expect next.

But perhaps the most impressive aspect of "Taking Tiger Mountain" is Eno's ability to infuse each track with a sense of humour and playfulness that is infectious. Whether he's singing about a soldier plotting to take over a mountain or a man's desire to become a spy, there is a tongue-in-cheek quality to Eno's lyrics that adds an extra layer of depth to the music.

Overall, "Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)" is a masterclass in blending artistry with accessibility. It may not be for everyone, but for those willing to take the plunge into Eno's weird and wonderful world, the rewards are plentiful. So sit back, relax, and let Brian Eno take you on a musical journey unlike any other.
