This initiative now takes on a towering scale with the first ever box set gathering the entire ten album collection of Brian Eno's Obscure Records, originally issued between 1975 and 1978. A truly groundbreaking body of recordings - many of which have remained out of print and difficult to find for decades - it contains some of the most important, influential, and enduring music to emerge during the second half of the 20th Century, which collectively reconfigured the terms of minimalism and laid the groundwork for the emerging movement of ambient music over its short, three-year run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis historic collection marks the first time such a seminal series has received a complete repress and is certainly one of the year's most interesting, essential, and widely anticipated releases, stunningly produced with the complete involvement of all the artists or their estates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes texts \/ contributions by Gavin Bryars, Bradford Bailey, David Toop, Max Eastley, Richard Bernas, Tom Recchion, Carlo Boccadoro, Walter Rovere and Bruno Stucchi, and rare photos, including several by Roberto Masotti.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen viewed collectively, the Obscure catalog reveals a remarkable, and previously unexplored counterpoint – bridging the United Kingdom and the American West Coast – to the dominant threads of minimal and experimental music, centered in New York that had long dominated the public consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD1 Gavin Bryars - \u003cem\u003eThe Sinking of the Titanic\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD2 Christopher Hobbs, John Adams, Gavin Bryars - \u003cem\u003eEnsemble Pieces\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD3 Brian Eno - \u003cem\u003eDiscreet Music\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD4 David Toop, Max Eastley - \u003cem\u003eNew and Rediscovered Musical Instruments\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD5 Jan Steele, John Cage - \u003cem\u003eVoices and Instruments\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD6 Michael Nyman - \u003cem\u003eDecay Music\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD7 The Penguin Café Orchestra - \u003cem\u003eMusic From the Penguin Café\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD8 John White, Gavin Bryars - \u003cem\u003eMachine Music\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD9 Tom Phillips, Gavin Bryars, Fred Orton - \u003cem\u003eIrma\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD10 Harold Budd - \u003cem\u003eThe Pavilion of Dreams\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Dialogo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67324399747313,"sku":"diw1793065763703","price":92.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/0294\/1169\/files\/various---the-complete-obscure-records-collection-1975-1978-10cd_1.jpg?v=1793065770","url":"https:\/\/reptilehabitat.shop\/products\/various-the-complete-obscure-records-collection-1975-1978-10cd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
