There is no hint of danger in the music and the little technology in the piece is conveyed by electronic instruments. I bought more Eno and discovered that he was a reluctant rock star. A turning point in my listening was the discovery of Virgin's ambient collections. These albums are obviously trying to breath life into Virgin's back catalogue. And that brings me to Ambient music's modern day sister which some people think bastardises it and some think it keeps it alive.
Ambient music comes from two sources.
There is the music started by Eno which was a combination of quiet classical music with electronic instruments, and there is also dance music. Eno felt that ambient music was music you could ignore. It was only just inside your awareness. Dance clubs however found that they could play a style of dance music which allowed people to chill out for a while. The beat was calmer, there was less drive to the music, but it was more crafted as people would actually listen to it rather than just jerk their bodies.
