Brian Eno Unveils 'Music for Installations' Box Set

BY Calum SlingerlandPublished Mar 13, 2018

While certainly recognized for his solo career and work with Roxy Music, Brian Eno has received plenty of acclaim for his exhibitions of light, video and sound, which have been shown around the globe. Now, the artist will collect the music from such installations in a sprawling new box set.

Titled Music for Installations, Eno's box set will arrive May 4 through UMC in 6-CD, deluxe 6-CD and 9-LP editions. Ranging from unreleased material to tracks that were available on limited CD runs, the box's material was used in Eno exhibitions from 1986 until the present (and beyond).

The box set was designed by Eno and longtime collaborator Nick Robertson and will include a 64-page booklet featuring rare and unseen exhibition photos, in addition to a new essay from Eno himself.
