Description
Reissue of 1997 album The Drop. Described by Eno as an interpretation of jazz from a vague, alien perspective, The Drop also integrates his interests in the melodic yet percussive basslines of Fela Kuti and the complex, labyrinthine melodies of The Mahavishnu Orchestra. Ever the provocateur, on this record Eno defies classification, avoiding association with pop, existent sonic approaches and even music itself.
The expanded CD edition includes a second disc containing 9 rarely-heard bonus tracks from the same period as The Drop, previously only available as a limited edition of 1,000 sold at an exhibition of Brian Enos 77 Million Paintings at La Floret in Japan in 2006, the original issue of which has since become a collectors item amongst Eno fans.
Gatefold vinyl edition is the first time the album has appeared on this format. Includes 2 tracks not on the CD edition (Slicing System and Sharply Cornered), unique vinyl edit of the track Iced World, download card to access audio of everything on the vinyl and printed inners containing Eno writing and images from the period.
