Roger Eno

BY LARRY CRANE

I first heard Roger Eno via Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks , the dreamy music written for the NASA footage-based documentary, For All Mankind . The album featured him collaborating with his brother, Brian Eno ( Tape Op #85 ), and Daniel Lanois ( #37 , 127 ). Since then, Roger's made countless solo albums, many of them which remain centered on his pastoral piano compositions. Mixing Colours , the first album of solely him and his brother, came out in 2020, and highlights Roger's keyboard melodies, which were electronically modified by Brian. On his new release, The Turning Year (via the prestigious Deutsche Grammophon label), Roger instead blends his organic piano pieces with the string ensemble, Scoring Berlin, tracked at Berlin's venerable Teldex Studio.
