Jon Hassell, Brian Eno – Fourth World Vol. 1 - Possible Musics

In 1980 the product of a congenial collaboration appeared: "Fourth World Music Vol. I: Possible Musics" by Jon Hassell and Brian Eno. The influence of the work remains unbroken to this day, not only on ambient music, as promoted by Brian Eno, but also on the theory of "Fourth World Music" as advanced by Stockhausen's student Jon Hassell, whose idea of music without boundaries, the "coffee-colored classical music of the future" (Hassel), has largely established itself in world music today

The new edition of this groundbreaking album classic is released with detailed liner notes including current interviews.
