Gary Huswit’s documentary about Brian Eno, simply titled Eno premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. The film will have its official premiere in the UK on April 20, 2024.
A day earlier, Eno will release an accompanying soundtrack album on digital platforms, and on physical in North America and Mexico on June 7.
The soundtrack will consist of 17 tracks, featuring “work from early solo outings, acclaimed collaborations with the likes of David Bryne, John Cale, Cluster and more recently, Fred again… all the way through to music from his latest album, FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE, and his 2022 appearance at the Acropolis in Athens with brother Roger.” The record will also include three previously unreleased songs.
As NME points out, Eno relies on the aid of AI, which will randomize the layout of the film, every time it is screened – resulting in a new viewing experience every time. “The use of randomness to pattern the layout of the film seemed likely to override any hagiographic impulses,” Eno said to Variety earlier this year.
