Two years later collaboration with Karl Hyde for two works, Brian Eno has announced the release of a new solo album. The Ship will be out April 29th via Warp Records. The title-track is available for streaming. Eno explains, “The piece started as an Ambient work intended for a multi channel sound installation in Stockholm, but during the making of it I discovered that I could now sing a low C – which happens to be the root note of the piece. Getting older does have a few fringe benefits after all. From that point the work turned into an unusual kind of song…a type I’ve never made before where the vocal floats free, untethered to a rhythmic grid of any kind.” Listen below.
