Secret Life with Brian Eno is out now - lnk.to/TEXT055 Brian's 10% broken algorithm edit - • Fred again.. and Brian...
Пікірлер
Apart from the fact that this album accompanies me every night on my nocturnal journey to dreamland, I have listened to this pure masterpiece along with Brian Eno's 'ambient 2' album and Ludovico Einaudi's art over and over again every time I have been on my 'autumn walk' alone with myself. The perfect trio to let myself escape to a safe place for a while. It's amazing how much emotion listening to this album can evoke. Sitting on a bench, watching leaves falling from the trees and swans swimming on the lake, I felt emptiness and powerlessness, but also peace, as if someone was embracing me with arms full of love. A moment of reflection, an appreciation of the beauty of the surrounding nature and the people in our lives - this album describes feelings that no words can describe. I think I have discovered new levels of my sensitivity lol. Isn't it beautiful that each of us has a 'secret life' to which we can sometimes return?

Ever since it’s release, no matter the weather, the world, the state of my own mind, this album has vibrated through the halls of my home everytime I make my way into my bed. This is the soundtrack to which I breathe, meditate, cry, journal, scream, laugh, question the universe, shout my gratitude into the ether and dream my dreams. This album has held me through heartbreak, loss, illness, heavy life changing “oh my god what the hell am I doing this is crazy but i feel it in my soul” decisions. It’s welcomed new connections into my life, it’s held me on train rides home from having 5 hour conversations that have ripped apart my soul. It’s been the soundtrack to my movie of a life unfolding. The beginning of friendships and love stories that I only dreamed possible. Its the album I play when I’m working with clients, asking them to delve deep into their psyche because I know the soundtrack will keep them safe. That this soundtrack heals. I know every note like it was written into my skin, and I’m forever begging to hear this album from start to finish in an abandoned church somewhere surrounded by candlelight and beautiful people. That would make my life! This is the soundtrack to my life, I’m grateful for every word that’s whispered, every note that is somehow intrinsically linked to part of my soul. To the star sent humans I’m now connected to because of our love for this piece of art. Did you know there’s many of us? All over the world that connected so deeply that we now have a secret lifers secret place where we talk everyday and hold each other through life? In that space there are love stories, friendships, deepest fears and wildest dreams and silliest nights shared. That was born because of this. This album is home. It’s heart. Thank you for bringing it into this world. I’ll be forever grateful. Ayisha x

listening to Secret Life when it was released, i was navigating the loss of a relationship and someone important to me. i remember vividly the emotions that had poured out because of these tracks - pain, anguish, sadness, heartache, endless tears… they allowed me to sit with the heaviness of it all. to feel the weight of my emotions & have a true cathartic release. that these tracks can evoke such feeling is a testament to how beautiful and powerfully healing this album is. Secret Life is a reminder of what it means to be human and to be able to feel so deeply. i come back to it often as a safe place. as a companion in my travels when things may feel a bit isolated and lonely. for quieter moments amongst the noise and stress of a busy everyday life. as a reminder of how much i have grown since. the beautiful friendships i’ve been able to forge as a result, and ones i find deep comfort in... i listen to Secret Life now with hope. that maybe things will be okay after all :) this music & this album has meant everything to me… so thank you both. and thank you, Brian for being the GOAT - not to be confused with a hardy domesticated ruminant animal that has backward curving horns, but rather…the Greatest Of All Time 🙇🏻♀🙏🏻👑❤ much love ❤

Brian and Fred! Secret Life has played a wondrous calm, relaxing and mediative clutch in my life since its release. A personal lullaby, in the dawning mornings, that has accompanied me on my commute into the city on numerous occasions. Was recently gifted the album, in vinyl format, from a loved one this holiday season and I will look always look forward to revisiting its timelessness as I grow older. Fred's insight about the creative collaborative process was surely refreshing and rather infectious. Will continue to dream about a live performance, as its specialness and uniqueness would be a feat to experience and witness, but please confirm the lyrics for us whenever you have a moment! With nothing but mad love

This is where I go when I need some softness, and a gentle reminder that it's all just a happenin' and we are all riding this beautiful fleeting thing we call life. The thing that gets me the most is that I don't even feel like I have the words to describe how this masterpiece makes me feel. It connects me to that state of flow. That feeling of being fully alive, the messiness, the beauty, it reminds me that we are not alone in the ebbs and flows. And it makes me smile and cry at the same time. I think one of the most poignant things I've discovered is that I've lived abroad most of my adult life, I rarely get home sick because I see 'home' as being wherever I am. Yet when I listen to this album it makes me miss my first home, the people and just being amongst life in the UK. Bottom line is, it makes me feel human, and that I have discovered a whole new spectrum of connecting and feeling, and for that alone I want to thank you both for existing and creating what you do. SOOO much love ❤❤❤

Lost among the debris on the shore, a weathered cassette tape caught my eye, "Secret Life". Intrigued, I inserted it into my Walkman and was transported to a faded world where the sun forever set on a Sunday evening. The faint music, tinged with a gentle melancholy, emotionally evoked the looming arrival of endless Mondays and the loneliness of facing the workweek. As the sun descended below the horizon, I was reminded that even amidst the aimlessness of shadow-stretched shores, there exists a world of value.

I have spent the past two years in school for music and graciously under the mentorship of an amazing musician, and there have been many times in my journey that I have thought back to Freds words talking about his relationship with Brian. A mentor-mentee relationship is so so important and rare and a beautiful thing, and this album absolutely represents that. This album came out the final week of my classes with this person, and we were able to share our love for this album together as well as connect to how that relationship sounds so beautiful when put into music.

Brian, this may fade into the sea of praise you have received throughout your life and it's all deserved so I'm good with that, but you have in many ways saved me from internal torment. with Secret Life, and with your mentorship of Fred, who's other projects have similarly helped me. I can put any part of Secret Life on and by the end of the track I am calm, centered, collected. My thoughts belong to me again. There are no words to describe how incredible that is, and how grateful I am for this gift. Thank you for everything. Love from across the Pond

In my opinion this is a work of sheer beauty. The ability to be swept up in those drones and escorted to a sense of an audiophonic hug with a loveable old friend or humble counsel. Feels like a shoulder you are leaning on, telling you that you are not alone and that life wants you to experience it. Thank you Fred, thank you Brian, you gorgeous wonderful souls.

This album has helped me heal in many ways. To me it has been “the calm after the storm” in various moments, specially on those where I have felt the need to reconnect with myself, accept my thoughts and emotions and truly let myself feel. This isn’t something easy for me but I feel like Fred and Brian’s music creates a safe place in which I feel strong enough to withstand the pain of those raw emotions. I’d even say it’s like a medicine to me because it always ends up making me practice self compassion and perceiving life with gratitude.

This album brings me so much peace and joy and the same time. This album came out in a very tough part of my life where I lost a loved one, I couldn’t rest, couldn’t sleep, didn’t eat. Started falling asleep listening to this whole album and I started sleeping so much better and and waking up the next day with more joy and wanting to live every moment of my life. Thank you Fred And Brian for this beautiful masterpiece ❤

fred came on the mainstream radio the other day whilst in work first time i heard him on it, but i swear i felt genuinely proud of him just cus ive been listening to him for so long and its brilliant to see him get to where he deserves. the music industry is appalling to say the least so seeing someone actually work their way up instead of being instantly famous is refreshing to say the least. UK btw. Hopefully this is a global occurance! Nice one Fred!

Hi Brian (and Fred)! It’s wild that this album is almost a year old. You guys gave us such a fun week with the filtered broadcasts leading up to release. It was my second most played album last year and kicked off a season of emotional healing. It’s so hard to pick a favorite on an album like this that’s a no-skips-single-experience kind of thing, but I think my favorite track is safety because I adore the staves x Bon Iver sample. Cheers guys, hope this year is good to you 🌺

This album is not just a usual album. It's special. In many ways. It's a little bit like a home, a safe space. A safe space to fall asleep. A safe space to take a break from the turbulences of the daily madness you might find yourself in. A safe space to reflect your own thoughts. A safe space to let yourself fall into an emotion, take a close look and came back up. Perfect soundtrack for traveling. Perfect soundtrack to rest. Turn it on, may headphones be your choice, to have it really close to you, everything suddenly seems possible. Happy to see, some of the id - tunes found a home. Come on home. Thank you Brian.

This might be my favourite ever ambient album, and I love ambient music. Incredible work. Just enough emotion in there in to be affecting while still being chill.
Apart from the fact that this album accompanies me every night on my nocturnal journey to dreamland, I have listened to this pure masterpiece along with Brian Eno's 'ambient 2' album and Ludovico Einaudi's art over and over again every time I have been on my 'autumn walk' alone with myself. The perfect trio to let myself escape to a safe place for a while. It's amazing how much emotion listening to this album can evoke. Sitting on a bench, watching leaves falling from the trees and swans swimming on the lake, I felt emptiness and powerlessness, but also peace, as if someone was embracing me with arms full of love. A moment of reflection, an appreciation of the beauty of the surrounding nature and the people in our lives - this album describes feelings that no words can describe. I think I have discovered new levels of my sensitivity lol. Isn't it beautiful that each of us has a 'secret life' to which we can sometimes return?
Hey fellow Ambient 2 enjoyer
a perfect description of what this album does to me. empty, but at peace. glad i'm not the only one :)
no robot will ever give us the depth of consciousness in the human heart 🫀 comments like these ♥️ remind me of that FWIW
Thank you Fred for all the great music these past months.

I have Fred Again playing at my wedding tomorrow (not live obviously). My Fiancee will walk down the Aisle to London Bridge Station. This man has drawn so much emotion from me, from tears to pure elation. What an amazing human he is and it's an absolute pleasure to be around with Fred Again playing through the lugholes. Big up yourself sir.
I hope you have an awesome day dude!
Congrats on your wedding hope your day is amazing!!
hey, that's so cool
wow. congrats!
congratulations… and If you could see yourself in my eyes is a must play bro right?

The journey is the destination 😉
keep looking for it, and putting those vibes out, and it will come brother
it's already here :)
whenever you read this, in that moment, you are already in the calm and happiness you are hoping for.
I was blessed to find Eno in the early 80s like Music for Airports... Super jazzed I found Fred Again last year. Now this!? I'm in new music heaven.
I so agree, discovered Eno in 1979, yeah I’m showing my age & to just discover Fred, ah my soul sings again.

A note for Brian: - Whenever I take a walk, whether it's rainy, sunny, cold or windy. This piece of art makes calm and happy. Especially the track cmon, it's the most floaty thing I have ever listened to, and will always listen to, whenever I walk. Thank you Eno & Fred
I feel an enormous sense of gratitude for this man. It brings tears to my eyes when I think about how lucky we are to be alive right now. The Fred again.. era is a special one.
I had to keep blinking to read your comment:) I feel this.
Mee too. I also appreciate how best artists of our times are connecting in a humble and most humane (and fun way) too❤
Ok but the first one feels like a crisp summer dawn when the sky is still dark on a side and barely a little bit of the sunlight is visible on the other side, on the dark side you can still see the moon and the stars and on the other side you can see the purple-ish & orange-ish colors coming thru , feels exactly like a breath of fresh air , i'm just woooah , this is amazing, i love it
If you like that vibe, listen to Something in the Orange by Zach Bryan. Technically country, but such a good song and gives those same feelings I think.

I'm the same age & was loving the purity of feeling fred puts out there, and then he joins forces with fourtet who is also like that, so modest. Just personally it's amazing going from being a die hard fourtet fan in the early 00s and seeing this sound get sooo popular. It's almost enough to restore ones faith in humanity. 🙏🏼✨🔥🔊🎶
What do you mean by “ear close to the floor”? I’ve never heard that
Brian and Fred, I really have to say thanks. I heard this at the moment when I needed it the most. I was waking up, and my sister started playing it. My girlfriend and I ended up in tears because you guys made us feel like we need to appreciate the good things more and that we are truly fortunate. We confirmed with these sounds that your music unites us and sticks us together. Thank you; we (my sister, girlfriend, and I) love you guys. Salute from Colombia.

Ever since it’s release, no matter the weather, the world, the state of my own mind, this album has vibrated through the halls of my home everytime I make my way into my bed. This is the soundtrack to which I breathe, meditate, cry, journal, scream, laugh, question the universe, shout my gratitude into the ether and dream my dreams. This album has held me through heartbreak, loss, illness, heavy life changing “oh my god what the hell am I doing this is crazy but i feel it in my soul” decisions. It’s welcomed new connections into my life, it’s held me on train rides home from having 5 hour conversations that have ripped apart my soul. It’s been the soundtrack to my movie of a life unfolding. The beginning of friendships and love stories that I only dreamed possible. Its the album I play when I’m working with clients, asking them to delve deep into their psyche because I know the soundtrack will keep them safe. That this soundtrack heals. I know every note like it was written into my skin, and I’m forever begging to hear this album from start to finish in an abandoned church somewhere surrounded by candlelight and beautiful people. That would make my life! This is the soundtrack to my life, I’m grateful for every word that’s whispered, every note that is somehow intrinsically linked to part of my soul. To the star sent humans I’m now connected to because of our love for this piece of art. Did you know there’s many of us? All over the world that connected so deeply that we now have a secret lifers secret place where we talk everyday and hold each other through life? In that space there are love stories, friendships, deepest fears and wildest dreams and silliest nights shared. That was born because of this. This album is home. It’s heart. Thank you for bringing it into this world. I’ll be forever grateful. Ayisha x
❤ yes
What a beautiful collaboration between two very important & influential artists from different generations. Super inspiring.
This album makes me feel like everything's gonna be okay. Thank you, Fred. Much love.
The most underrated thing about this guy is not his music, but the humility and positivity with which he creates his art. There are many people who create beautiful things, but few who can do so while being a good human. It's inspiring.
Absolutely agree. Mankind has lacked humility of late and Fred has reminded us of this … again
I disagree that creativity promotes hubris in and of itself but agree on your point about Fred being a dope cunt.
I agree 💯👍
he is an absolute narsasist
@@adean4146 welcome to the modern world, at least the beats be phat
After reading all positive comments I have come to the conclusion that: Fred is an angel ♥️✨
hes my angel for sure, knew I needed to go see him to cleanse and I'm still crying tears of joy from what I experienced
Fred again has always reminded me of Bon Iver by how they both create lonely, gut wrenching atmospheres and use their voices in such unique ways. Just started the album and already know this is gonna be on repeat for me. Thank you Fred, Brian and the legend himself Four Tet!
justin & sean to link up with fred - imagine
listen carefully to "Safety" - distorted samples of Heavenly Father in there :)
Fred only dreams he was as gifted, Fred goes to Brian Eno, 'ambient works by Effects Twin can you do it like that? I'll mash it up James Blake style'
I agree. I got into bon Iver just before I discovered Fred again. I love the singer songwriter producer folks that go in 100% with their ideas. Ben Gibbard from death cab and postal service was my first artist like that. Bonobo makes some great music as well with amazing collabs. Surrounding his usual dj sets with a live bon Iver esque show live with an orchestra and conducting from the center with some headphones.
@@decent.genius they would never big up the KKK or steal their ideas from other artists though.
Everyone is rightly focused on the music, but there is also medicine in reading the comments below. Everyone trying to put their emotions into words, and like myself, probably feeling they are inadequete. He has pulled good people together from all walks of life and all around the world.
You truly know it is good when peeps respond like this ❤
listening to Secret Life when it was released, i was navigating the loss of a relationship and someone important to me. i remember vividly the emotions that had poured out because of these tracks - pain, anguish, sadness, heartache, endless tears… they allowed me to sit with the heaviness of it all. to feel the weight of my emotions & have a true cathartic release. that these tracks can evoke such feeling is a testament to how beautiful and powerfully healing this album is. Secret Life is a reminder of what it means to be human and to be able to feel so deeply. i come back to it often as a safe place. as a companion in my travels when things may feel a bit isolated and lonely. for quieter moments amongst the noise and stress of a busy everyday life. as a reminder of how much i have grown since. the beautiful friendships i’ve been able to forge as a result, and ones i find deep comfort in... i listen to Secret Life now with hope. that maybe things will be okay after all :) this music & this album has meant everything to me… so thank you both. and thank you, Brian for being the GOAT - not to be confused with a hardy domesticated ruminant animal that has backward curving horns, but rather…the Greatest Of All Time 🙇🏻♀🙏🏻👑❤ much love ❤
Escaping via Fred’s music is just pure bliss We all seek it..and when we find it…it’s magical ✨💚
Fred, this is beyond beautiful, no words can describe. Rarely music can be heard with soul. Bless you and your listeners, couldn't of have discovered your work in a better time, it's like a healing spell.
Your music is like a salve for the heart, mind and soul. You helped me find my way out of the dark last year, and I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. Your music is changing lives for the better, and I just want to say thank you for inspiring me to change mine. From the center of my being, I thank you for your artistry and for the love you put into your music. You’ve helped me dream and dance again, without fear, with love… with hope. I am grateful. Truly, grateful. Thank you.
bro, you`re so cringe bro. Reading your comment has made this artist cringe for a moment. "salve for the heart" - bro spend more time reading, socialising and not gaming.
His music is like a best medicine for our tough times. Keep it up man, world needs you.
Ahhh Brian eno the king of ambient… I’m not even surprised your collaborating together… “ ENOUGH” has to be the favourite… big love ❤️
Only the begining, already legendary
Brian, Fred, Thank you for bringing this into the world. My wife and I find ourselves listen to this album nearly every night as we wind down for bed. I've memorize the coordinates of each beat, or had them gently engrained in me. I hum along when melodies rise out from the ether. I forget I'm listening, and then realize I've been organizing my thoughts of the day into beautiful coves and groves within this sonic landscape. I am grateful to be able to spend these moments dwelling in music that envelopes you at the speed of feeling.
Thank you Fred , #musicsaveslifes 🙏🏽 for everyone reading this, have faith in yourself always don’t let the world consume you , we are and always will be…love 🙏🏽

Fred, it's Saturday and it's raining. I'm sitting by my window watching the drops crash against the glass while I listen to your album. I feel peace. Thank you for this moment.
it's wednesday, it's raining. As I draw on fragile and beautiful paper, I look at the drops outside my window, being - I think - on the other side of the world from you, in Italy. For a moment I feel the same peace, even if the war - the real war with cities bombed, trenches full of corpses and people killed and tortured in basements - is not far from here.
195th comment!! Your art is amazing Fred. Make the world better with your spirit!!!
This album is the feeling of escaping the planet, floating in outer space with absolutely nothing to cling to but the memories of life in all its brokenness and beauty. It’s existentially exceptional. ❤ brian fred
Brian and Fred! Secret Life has played a wondrous calm, relaxing and mediative clutch in my life since its release. A personal lullaby, in the dawning mornings, that has accompanied me on my commute into the city on numerous occasions. Was recently gifted the album, in vinyl format, from a loved one this holiday season and I will look always look forward to revisiting its timelessness as I grow older. Fred's insight about the creative collaborative process was surely refreshing and rather infectious. Will continue to dream about a live performance, as its specialness and uniqueness would be a feat to experience and witness, but please confirm the lyrics for us whenever you have a moment! With nothing but mad love
I love listening to this when I just need to have some “calm” in my life, whether that be out on a run after a stressful day, or just to help me get to sleep. This makes me feel a certain way that no other piece of music makes me feel, it’s spine tingling and transforming
Got this on vinyl lp..so good..brilliant teamwork with uncle Brian😊✨👌
This Group are absolutely fantastic,I heard them on a Public radio station in Melboune,Australia on Friday night just gone,the station is 3RRR FM.
This is where I go when I need some softness, and a gentle reminder that it's all just a happenin' and we are all riding this beautiful fleeting thing we call life. The thing that gets me the most is that I don't even feel like I have the words to describe how this masterpiece makes me feel. It connects me to that state of flow. That feeling of being fully alive, the messiness, the beauty, it reminds me that we are not alone in the ebbs and flows. And it makes me smile and cry at the same time. I think one of the most poignant things I've discovered is that I've lived abroad most of my adult life, I rarely get home sick because I see 'home' as being wherever I am. Yet when I listen to this album it makes me miss my first home, the people and just being amongst life in the UK. Bottom line is, it makes me feel human, and that I have discovered a whole new spectrum of connecting and feeling, and for that alone I want to thank you both for existing and creating what you do. SOOO much love ❤❤❤
merci fred , encore une fois je suis toujours amoureuse de ce que tu nous offres I can say ur music changed my life and thk u for that tu as créé ce que j’aime le plus merci ❤️🩹

Lost among the debris on the shore, a weathered cassette tape caught my eye, "Secret Life". Intrigued, I inserted it into my Walkman and was transported to a faded world where the sun forever set on a Sunday evening. The faint music, tinged with a gentle melancholy, emotionally evoked the looming arrival of endless Mondays and the loneliness of facing the workweek. As the sun descended below the horizon, I was reminded that even amidst the aimlessness of shadow-stretched shores, there exists a world of value.
This album makes me wanna cry. No idea why but makes me wanna cry in a happy way. It makes me feel so calme, peaceful, and at ease with everything going on around me. Thank you guys for this❤
well said. I love the intro - it reminds me of the joy I have improvising on the piano. such joy
from the first second of this album, i just started weeping. this is the most sincere and powerful thing i've heard for a really long time.
Splendour turning in magnificent sounds and just like mantras to elevate the whole Planet and its humanhood to the Infinite! Planet Earth vibrates higher with all these luminic galaxial sounds!!!
Words cannot express how much this album means to me. I grew up listening to Brian Eno, and now later in my life Fred is my current favorite artist. I have spent the past two years in school for music and graciously under the mentorship of an amazing musician, and there have been many times in my journey that I have thought back to Freds words talking about his relationship with Brian. A mentor-mentee relationship is so so important and rare and a beautiful thing, and this album absolutely represents that. This album came out the final week of my classes with this person, and we were able to share our love for this album together as well as connect to how that relationship sounds so beautiful when put into music. Thank you both for such an incredible piece of art

No other artist brings me the joy and plays their music from heart like Fred does. Unbelievable! Still can't accept the privilege that is listening to this album!
Casually dropping an album with the man behind the Microsoft '95 start-up sound. What a legend.
Really?
Brian Eno brought me here and I am grateful I was led to this amazing masterpiece. This music is like a switch to the awareness of my existence, it makes me sober and helps me see what matters most in life
There is a lot of chatter in my head at all times. Multiple thoughts at once, extreme overstimulation sensitivity... Fred all of your work does this for me, it's why you're my favorite. But Secret Life turns it all off for me. This album is my peace. This artwork is my serenity. Brian, this may fade into the sea of praise you have received throughout your life and it's all deserved so I'm good with that, but you have in many ways saved me from internal torment. with Secret Life, and with your mentorship of Fred, who's other projects have similarly helped me. I can put any part of Secret Life on and by the end of the track I am calm, centered, collected. My thoughts belong to me again. There are no words to describe how incredible that is, and how grateful I am for this gift. Thank you for everything. Love from across the Pond
I just lost my dog, my best friend and soulmate, your music is healing me from my pain
Sorry for your losses.
I feel you my dog is also old. And she has been so important to me. Everyday iam thankfull she is still here.. maybe you feel it with your dog too that you are connected on a deeper level.. and evendo ways are parted in this realm. Gonna be forever together in the mind ❤️
Fred, you are my Elvis ... your music is very deep and emotional at top levels. Thank you for your performances.
You're such a bright star in a world of darkness. Shine on
It’s hard to verbalise the feelings you get when hear beauty. We can see beautiful artwork or natures wonder and articulate why it is beautiful but it’s harder with music. In my opinion this is a work of sheer beauty. The ability to be swept up in those drones and escorted to a sense of an audiophonic hug with a loveable old friend or humble counsel. Feels like a shoulder you are leaning on, telling you that you are not alone and that life wants you to experience it. Thank you Fred, thank you Brian, you gorgeous wonderful souls.
Thanks Fred and Brian for this album. The whole Secret Life experience the past days has been sooo special to me, an absolutely remarkable time of life to be living in! All topped by the album finally coming out today, which is just so so special. Lots of love to everyone, who was involved in this!

To Brian- Your music truly inspires us all. Your music holds a special place in my heart, creating a unique and profound connection. Your innovative soundscapes have been a source of comfort for me throughout the darkest times of my life. Thank you for sharing your incredible gift with the world.
This album has helped me heal in many ways. To me it has been “the calm after the storm” in various moments, specially on those where I have felt the need to reconnect with myself, accept my thoughts and emotions and truly let myself feel. This isn’t something easy for me but I feel like Fred and Brian’s music creates a safe place in which I feel strong enough to withstand the pain of those raw emotions. I’d even say it’s like a medicine to me because it always ends up making me practice self compassion and perceiving life with gratitude.
The perfect night bus soundtrack. When my heads fuzzy, the alcohol is starting to wear off and my surroundings are chaos, putting this on has soundtracked many a night. It brings a sense of calm and serenity to an otherwise jumbled world.
That's the music of heaven, so pure
El álbum más bonito del 2023 como dijo Four tet, gracias Fred, Brian and friends, por producir esta joya, saludos desde Chile
Brian & Fred, listening to this album is the equivalent of tapping into all the hidden and unseen feeling on the entire spectrum of human emotion. Thank you for creating an album in which we may freely tap into these emotions. You’ve both opened us up through sound. Thank you.
I sat on this album for three days knowing I was going to be taking a flight at sunset - it was so worth it! Beautiful and enveloping. Thanks to you both.
Fred, thank you for changing my life with your incredible music. I found you via a basic KZhead search about 3 months ago, and its been such a great experience being exposed to your artistry. The Tiny Desk Session showed your range as an artist, and this album is the absolute best. Thank you for inspiring me to become a better version of myself and inspiring me to change my mindset.
thank you Fred and Brian, really struggling at the moment and this album really cheered me up x
This is my perfect Sunday morning walking soundtrack. Usually start with Come On Home (what a treat if the accurate lyric was published to it) then keep looping it. The vinyl edition is wonderful. Thank you.
I’ve loved Brian since watching The Lovely Bones for the first time and falling for the incredible soundtrack. I’ve loved Fred since day 1 so for these 2 to partner up and create the most beautiful album, it’s made my life. This album is for everyone, for every moment. Driving, working, cooking, crying, beautiful background music for any occasion. Thanks Lads ❤

This album brings me so much peace and joy and the same time. This album came out in a very tough part of my life where I lost a loved one, I couldn’t rest, couldn’t sleep, didn’t eat. Started falling asleep listening to this whole album and I started sleeping so much better and and waking up the next day with more joy and wanting to live every moment of my life. Thank you Fred And Brian for this beautiful masterpiece ❤
This album makes me me feel like falling in love AGAIN. Peaceful but exciting, dreamy and meditative, soft yet so powerful. So grateful for this masterpiece🖤
Thank you for bringing magic to us. Thank you for being you, Fred.
Very happy again with Fred Again, again. This album bridges two legends of their own era. Brian Eno's work ("1/1" and "Another Green World" are epics). Love it.
Sublime. From Start to finish, just beautiful.
Listening to this in HK. Sat on the balcony on the 21st floor looking towards the sea. Vibes! God bless 🙏🏻
Eno is an excellent combination with the music of Fred Again. Just like with David Sylvian. I am completely off this world, it is so beautiful. Very well done.
What a lovely vibe this whole album has. I really dig the slower and mellow tone it has.
sitting here on a rainy day with my dog and put this album on. feel so calm today. thank you brian and fred
WHAT. Collab no one expected nor asked but everyone needed. Hats off
literally everyone expected it
This album is a journey... and a beautiful one at that
fred came on the mainstream radio the other day whilst in work first time i heard him on it, but i swear i felt genuinely proud of him just cus ive been listening to him for so long and its brilliant to see him get to where he deserves. the music industry is appalling to say the least so seeing someone actually work their way up instead of being instantly famous is refreshing to say the least. UK btw. Hopefully this is a global occurance! Nice one Fred!
Hi Brian (and Fred)! It’s wild that this album is almost a year old. You guys gave us such a fun week with the filtered broadcasts leading up to release. It was my second most played album last year and kicked off a season of emotional healing. It’s so hard to pick a favorite on an album like this that’s a no-skips-single-experience kind of thing, but I think my favorite track is safety because I adore the staves x Bon Iver sample. Cheers guys, hope this year is good to you 🌺
Brian is one of my favourite instrumentalist musicians ever and Fred has been someone who has come heavily into my rotation and becoming one of my mainstays in what I listen to. A collab album is beyond a dream.
What a time to be alive
If the soul is an ocean, than this album feels like a deep sea exploration of the bottom. Sonically exciting and thematically beautiful in a way that can only resonate with the people that are brave enough to go this deep. Thank you for working on this with Fred, Brain
it's peace and then it's all the hurt you feel when you're by yourself thinking noone could ever feel the same and in between it's that little smile in your heart when the sun shines just right i listen whenever i want to calmly be with myself :)
2 minutes in and I'd teared up, 8 minutes in and I had a little cry. I'm studying music and wondered if i even wanted to anymore - Fred, you just gave me my love for music back.
Love you Fred. You are a joy to listen to!
This album is not just a usual album. It's special. In many ways. It's a little bit like a home, a safe space. A safe space to fall asleep. A safe space to take a break from the turbulences of the daily madness you might find yourself in. A safe space to reflect your own thoughts. A safe space to let yourself fall into an emotion, take a close look and came back up. Perfect soundtrack for traveling. Perfect soundtrack to rest. Turn it on, may headphones be your choice, to have it really close to you, everything suddenly seems possible. Happy to see, some of the id - tunes found a home. Come on home. Thank you Brian. Thank you Fred.
I am so grateful that you put the drones in that you spoke about I wanted to experience that feeling. This is a beautiful album 🫶🏾🐉
i was literally thinking a couple days ago that i'd kill to hear you do a downtempo album - your studio sessions and tiny desk have been so sweet. couldn't have had a better person to do it with. thanks so much for all the lovely moments. 💛
Hauntingly and beautifully soothing😮..!!! God 🙏🙏🙏 bless you.. Thank you 💗!!!!!
This, above all else, sustains the soul. Thank you Fred.....so very much
I cant believe im saying this but, this might be the greatest work you have ever made, I traveled to another universe listening to this
"Music for Airpods"
This might be my favourite ever ambient album, and I love ambient music. Incredible work. Just enough emotion in there in to be affecting while still being chill.
