With their joint albums LUMINAL and LATERAL, music legend Brian Eno and conceptual artist Beatie Wolfe are releasing two projects that are as independent as they are interconnected. The alternative/vocal album LUMINAL features vocals and lyrics by Wolfe and was produced by Eno. Both describe the music, which is unusual for both artists, as "electric-country-dream-music." LATERAL, on the other hand, is described as "ambient-landscape-dream-music" and "like the familiar, but better." Eno himself is considered to have coined the term "ambient music" in the 1970s. The artists are members of EarthPercent, a non-profit organization that advocates for and supports climate protection within the music industry. The project's black and limited-edition colored LPs are therefore pressed in BioVinyl (bio-based PVC).
