ENO, MOEBIUS & ROEDELIUS: AFTER THE HEAT

Whilst Cluster and Eno was presented in a style consistent with Cluster's albums, the second collaboration between Eno, Moebius and Roedelius is a continuation of the ambient-leaning art rock explorations of Another Green World and Before and After Science. On a par with the former, this classic proto-ambient piece presents a cohesive musical vision evoking sparse, barren landscapes, junkyards and ruins. Conny Planck once again does an excellent job of the engineering, the album having better sound quality than even Eno's exacting standards usually yield, and Moebius and Roedelius prove adept at making contributions consistent with Eno's approach. An understated classic at the border between Krautrock and ambient.
