Background


The album is Eno's sixth for Warp, and was recorded following the announcement of his first collaboration with Karl Hyde. Eno was quoted saying, "when Someday World was finished I felt like we were still on a roll and I wasn't ready to stop working and get into 'promotional mode' for that record. So I suggested we immediately start on another album, a different one, where we extended some of the ideas we'd started, and attempted some of the ideas we hadn't."[13]

The album was released on 30 June 2014 (1 July in North America) on CD and digitally with a vinyl copy which features two additional tracks, "Slow Down, Sit Down & Breathe" (also on the digital edition) and "On a Grey Day".[14]
