What Would Brian Eno Have Done

Description

This new album is, without a doubt, the product of the many experiences Rubin Steiner has had in recent years, simultaneously leading trio bass-drums-synth concerts, DJ sets, compositions for theater, contemporary dance, contemporary art, and literary concerts where, with his modular synthesizer, he has accompanied more than a dozen authors. A body of work for the stage that can be heard on this deeply sensitive and narrative record, as singular as its creator who, 25 years after his debut, still surprises us, and here for the better. More free than ever, Rubin Steiner offers nothing less, on this album, than his love of music through delicate airy nursery rhymes, electronic free jazz, retro-futurist easy listening, krautrock, deviant house music, and even a cover of Mozart. Another cover is this poignant and very personal version of Brian Eno’s Golden Hours, the only sung track on an instrumental album that, nevertheless, tells many stories.
