Video: Brian Eno - Ambient 1 (Music for Airports)

Posted on | May 17, 2007 |

“I thought it would be much better to have music that said, ‘Well, if you die, it doesn’t really matter.’”

I really love airliners, airports, airlines, air disasters, anything to do with commercial aviation. And I really love Eno’s Ambient 1: Music for Airports. I’ve had the very same experience he talks about in the video, being at an airport on an early Spring morning, the light being just right, the architecture being big and sweeping, with 747’s and 777’s arriving from and shooting off to all corners of the earth. Except I was listening to 1/1, and it really was just so much better that way.
