About Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy

UK reissue of this 1974 album from the esteemed British composer, producer and musician, who has been credited with single-handedly creating Ambient music and helping to inspire multitudes of Punk, Glam, New Romantic, New Wave and Post-Punk outfits since the mid ’70s. Continuing the twisted pop explorations of Here Come the Warm Jets, Eno’s follow up album, Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy), is more subdued and cerebral, and a bit darker when he does cut loose, but it’s no less thrilling once the music reveals itself. So, it’s a loose concept album about espionage, the Chinese Communist revolution, and dream associations, with the more stream-of-consciousness lyrics beginning to resemble the sorts of random connections made in dream states. Eno’s richly layered arrangements juxtapose very different treated sounds, yet they blend and flow together perfectly, hinting at the directions his work would soon take with the seamless sound paintings of Another Green World.
