Once I started working with generative music in the 1970s, I was flirting with ideas of making a kind of endless music – not like a record that youd put on, which would play for a while and finish. – Brian Eno

I got interested in the idea of music that could make itself, in a sense, in the mid 1960s really, when I first heard composers like Terry Riley, and when I first started playing with tape recorders. – Brian Eno

Agressive music can only shock you once. Afterwards its impact declines. Its inevitable. – Brian Eno
