Performer Notes

Small Craft on a Milk Sea is Brian Eno's first solo album since 2005's Another Day on Earth. Released on the Warp label, it is technically a collaboration -- improvisations altered by significant editing work -- with Leo Abrahams and Jon Hopkins. It marks a return to the approach of Eno's evocative ambient albums, which Eno himself refers to as "sound-only movies."

Professional Reviews

Alternative Press (p.111) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[With] everything from delicate melodies, driving post-punk ferocity, dark ambiance and wicked percolations that remind generations of electronic rockers exactly who paved their way."

Mojo (Publisher) (p.95) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "'Slow Ice,' 'Old Moon' and 'Lesser Heaven' settle into an immersive, ethereal drift....Aficionados will hear a master ambient craftsman in his element."

Clash (magazine) - "Things move from melodic ambience to galloping sci-fi workouts and back again, the highlight being the sublime 'Emerald And Stone'."

Record Collector (magazine) (p.81) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he dreamier pieces stand out for their delicacy....SMALL CRAFT should certainly buoy your spirits."

Uncut (magazine) (p.89) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "To get humans to recreate some of the world's most complicated computer programmes must, in Eno's world, presumably rank as a triumph."
