Bleep

Brian Eno abandons his trademark ambient explorations in favour of more idiosyncratic electronic experiments on 1992’s Nerve Net, available once again courtesy of All Saints Records. While nothing here has perhaps quite the bite of comparable offerings past (like David Byrne collaboration My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts), Eno still presents an interesting sonic vision. Funky instrumentals like opener ‘Fractal Zoom’ and ‘Ali Click’ were certainly novel in Eno’s oeuvre, as was the piano-led noir piece ‘Disturbed Being’. For fans, there are characteristically unclassifiable constructions like ‘My Squelchy Life’ and the extended ‘Web (Lascaux Mix’).
