Brian Eno's icy ohms and Jah Wobble's din collide on Spinner. It's not a collaborative effort in the traditional sense; rather, Eno shipped off tracks from an aborted soundtrack to the ex-Public Image Ltd. bassist, who in turn mucked about with some of the tracks and left others unmolested. The end result is interesting: ten musical chambers linked together in a continuous stream that range from steamy Eastern settings ("Like Organza") to uber-funk experiments ("Unusual Balance"). However, Wobble's contributions feel tacked on, often tentative, more akin to an editor than an equal creative partner. This is Eno's world, and only gradually does Jah Wobble slip his toe into the water before splashing about. It's a hard balance to strike, wishing to keep Eno's alien landscapes intact while trying to add relevant commentary, and rarely do the two composers co-exist peacefully. The spirit of collaboration is alive on "Marine Radio," where Eno's soundtrack is relegated to the role of a single instrument, but more often the music fails to find a middle ground. Case in point: The three tracks that feature Eno alone fare much better than noisy hybrids like "Spinner" and "Left Where It Fell." Of course, Eno fans could find merit in 40 minutes of amplifier hum, and they'll find it in Spinner too. Some will point to individual sections that sound like Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror, Discreet Music, My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, and other instances where Eno's muse has been better served, claiming that this music too functions well as ambient music (albeit with a dub presence). Yet the sum effect of Eno and Wobble sounds more like Tangerine Dream from the '80s, at a time when that band began to abandon music as a homogenous whole and instead layered superficial rhythms on top of amorphous undercurrents. If the intent was to have Wobble and his bandmates throw a wrench into Eno's works, the sputtering Spinner should have been better. Note that a bonus song of eerie lounge music appears as a mystery 11th cut (actually the tail half of the tenth track separated by a few minutes of silence).

After producing so many albums it shouldn't be surprising to find one of Brian Eno's better efforts more or less falling through the cracks of our collective attention span. You can blame it in part on the music itself, which isn't exactly designed to call attention to itself. But on the other hand this 1995 experiment, recorded with Post Punk bass guitar legend Jah Wobble, isn't your typically minimal ambient Eno soundscape. The project was unique in the way the two never actually shared any studio time together. The initial tracks were composed by Eno alone, as the soundtrack to an obscure avant-garde film ("Glitterbug", directed by his old pal Derek Jarman). Only afterward were the tapes offered to Wobble (a.k.a. John Wardle), with the invitation to make any additions and/or alterations he wanted, and no questions asked. The result is a curious but effective hybrid surpassing even the expectations raised by two such distinctive musical artists. Imagine the quintessential sound of Eno's more intuitive inner-space musings, beefed up by the dub-heavy subterranean bass playing of Wobble, and edited after the fashion of a Holger Czukay collage into an almost seamless 60-minute piece of music. Navel gazers will appreciate the near-subliminal ambient subtlety of it all (one selection, the 20+ minute "Left Where It Fell", even includes a five-minute stretch of complete silence, turning the long epilogue into more of a bonus track). And less passive listeners can climb left into the occasional cool rhythmic groove, all of which brings the music close to the underground spirit of classic Krautrock, thanks in large part to Wobble's recruitment of his old sparring partner, drummer Jaki Liebezeit (ex-CAN, of course). Unlike some of Eno's other pioneering ambient albums ("Neroli", "The Shutov Assembly", take your pick), there's little here that anyone could call blissful or soothing. In its own quiet, undemonstrative way this is strong stuff: the perfect soundtrack for late-night electronic meditation on what was then the eve of a brave new Millennium.
