Eno Moebius Roedelius – After The Heat (LP)

After the Heat is a 1978 album by Brian Eno, Dieter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius (the latter two being the core members of Cluster), credited to “Eno Moebius Roedelius”. The album represents the second collaboration by the trio, the first being 1977’s Cluster & Eno.
As so often in music, the idea of ambient was in the air, both eno and cluster experimenting with the form in the 1970s, rendering any debate as to who influenced who redundant. What is certain is that Brian Eno attended a Cluster concert in hamburg in 1975, strategically positioning himself in the front row. Sure enough, he was invited on stage to jam with the band and, after the show, the participants arranged to meet up again. They did so two years later at the old weserhof in forst, the domicile of the german duo. Eno and Cluster spent three weeks in Conny Plank’s studio, resulting in two albums: ‘Cluster and Eno’ and ‘After The Heat’.
