Verve records Annates a new collaboration project among the artists-musclants Brian Eno And Beatie Wolfe.
Luminal And Lateral They will be released on June 6, 2025. As anticipation of the project of the imminent project, two songs come out today, “Suddenly” and “Big Empty Country (Edit)”, taken respectively from Luminal And Lateral. Luminal is dream music. Lateral is space music. Nobody expected this music from these two artists. They didn't even expect it to them.
Brian Eno and Beatie Wolfe met for the first time thanks to their work in the environmental field, when they held a conference at the SXSW on the theme “Art and Climate”. The intervention was recently selected as one of the best of the last 25 years in the Festival. The two then met again when they exhibited their visual and conceptual works of art in various London galleries. Their musical collaboration was born from these meetings.
Reflecting on their collaboration to this project, which was recorded at various times until 2024, Brian and Beatie said: “Music consists in giving birth to feelings. Some of these sensations are familiar, while others may not be – or they can be complex mixtures of different feelings. There are many beautiful words for these feelings in other languages and cultures, words that do not exist in English. By giving a name to a feeling, we make it more likely, more tangible. Art is able to trigger feelings, or mixed with feelings, in the feelings. This way, a work of art can become the “mother” of a type of feeling and a place to go to find and relive that feeling.
