Good morning.

Today we’re listening to Brian Eno, an English music producer. Eno coined the term ambient music, and we’ve featured him several times on Flow State. Eno realized that music can be a background thing and profound at the same time. Ambient music, he wrote, should “accommodate many levels of listening attention without enforcing one in particular; it must be as ignorable as it is interesting.” We’re playing our favorite of his ambient works, beginning with the magnificent Thursday Afternoon and following it with the genre-defining works Music for Airports and Discreet Music.

Thursday Afternoon - Brian Eno (60m, no vocals)
Spotify / Apple Music / YouTube Music / Amazon Music / Tidal

Ambient 1: Music for Airports - Brian Eno (50m, no vocals)
Spotify / Apple Music / YouTube Music / Amazon Music / Tidal

Discreet Music - Brian Eno (60m, no vocals)
Spotify / Apple Music / YouTube Music / Amazon Music / Tidal

Have a really nice start to your week.

Discreet Music carried me through my mid to late 20s. Evening Star is by far a greater track, but the calmness of Discreet Music is unparalleled.
