Legendary electronic pioneer Brian Eno is set to release his new album ‘Small Craft On A Milk Sea’ on November 15th.
Brian Eno is one of the most influential electronic pioneers of all time. Warp is one of the most vital electronic music institutions of all time. So the news that Brian Eno is set to release an album through Warp is not to be taken lightly.
Simply put: this is bound to be some exciting music. Brian Eno’s first full length effort in almost five years, the poetically titled ‘Small Craft On A Milk Sea’ ends a period of silence from the producer.
Due for release on November 15th, the album was constructed with assistance from some special guests. Jon Hopkins has helped complete the new material, with Leo Abrahams also contributing to the sessions.
When the initial announcement was made earlier this year fans speculated that the album could have been the result of Brian Eno’s ‘scenius’ idea. Curating a festival this year the producer lined up a litany of colleagues, with a new piece of music gradually emerging between them.
Little has been heard from the new album, although a number of different formats have been announced. ‘Small Craft On A Milk Sea’ will be available in a limited edition box set, containing heavyweight vinyl, two CDs and a lithographic print.
In addition to this, Brian Eno has also confirmed a collector’s box set. Available to pre-order from 3pm on August 25th, only 250 copies of the release will be releases. The collector’s edition contains a unique, signed, numbered screen print by Brian Eno, alongside heavyweight vinyl and two CDs.
