Celebrating the birthday of Brian Eno<\/a>, acclaimed electronic music producer Lawrence Lui<\/a> is paying homage to the godfather of ambient music with a cover of 1992’s “Fractal Zoom.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lui dials up the dissonance on his rework of the track, which appeared on Eno’s 11th studio album, Nerve Net<\/em>. It’s out now to align with both AAPI Heritage Month and Eno’s 77th trip around the sun.<\/p>\n

Awash in atmospheric density, Lui’s production somehow feels both spacious and claustrophobic as ghostly samples hover atop layers of grainy textures. Traces of Japanese ambient icon Hiroshi Yoshimura’s environmental precision intermingle with the distorted melancholia of Burial, creating something that honors the track’s origins while establishing new territory.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The release serves as a preview of Lui’s upcoming album, according to a press release. The cover art by his teenage son adds another layer of generational dialogue, channeling Peter Saville’s iconic Factory Records aesthetic.<\/p>\n

You can listen to Lui’s cover of “Fractal Zoom”\u00a0below and find it on streaming platforms here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
