Roger Eno

Lost And Sound

Ever wondered how a composer plays with silence to create evocative music? Roger Eno has been honing his ambient and emotive music since 1983’s seminal Apollo: Atmosphere’s And Soundtracks, an album he made with his older brother Brian and the producer Daniel Lanois.

Roger chats with Paul about his style and his unique approach of "decomposition" in the creation of music. They delve into his life's experiences, from being a music therapist to his recent signing with esteemed German classical label Deutsche Grammophon and how it has impacted his work. His new LP, The Skies They Shift Like Chords is a testament to his ability to play with silence, create space in music and make every sound intentional. Get to know about his influences, his inspirations, and his aspiration for listeners to fill in the gaps in his music with their own interpretations.

They also discuss the influences of his upbringing, his close connection with the English countryside, and his creative processes.

Eno is set to release his second solo album for Deutsche Grammophon this autumn. Released 13th October, ‘The skies, they shift like chords…’
