My life in the bush of ghosts
Era il 1981 quando David Byrne e Brian Eno partorivano un album seminale che è poi diventato punto di riferimento sia musicale che per il lavoro grafico che lo accompagnava. Grazie a Downloadblog.it vi segnalo il sito My life in the bush of ghosts, progetto che prevede la possibilità di remixare due brani che verranno rilasciati con licenza Creative Commons: a breve saranno disponibili le varie tracce e il sito stesso diventerà punto di riferimento per ascoltare questi remix e votarli.
Questo il comunicato stampa:
Nonesuch Records & EMI are proud to announce the release on April 11 of seminal collaborative album ‘My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts’ by Brian Eno and David Byrne. Originally released in 1981, and recorded 25 years ago, this critically lauded album was the first mainstream release to heavily incorporate ‘found sounds’ and ethnic beats.
This new version has been remastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound (Interpol / Kings Of Leon) and features eight bonus tracks. These extra tracks are outtakes and ideas from the album’s sessions from throughout 1979 and 1980 and have been specifically chosen by David and Brian.
The packaging will differ from all previous Eno reissues — a jewel case within a slipcase, plus very special added extras. The slipcase and artwork have been designed by Peter Buchanan Smith (Wilco’s ‘A Ghost Is Born’), and 24 pages of sleevenotes have been provided by David Toop and David Byrne.
David Byrne has personally overseen the tracklisting and remastering.
