Lux (Brian Eno album)

Lux is a studio album by British musician Brian Eno, released in 2012 on Warp Records. It is a 76-minute composition in four sections, described by Eno as a "musical painting."

Lux is considered part of Eno's ambient music catalog, building on his earlier explorations of generative and minimalist soundscapes. The album was created specifically for and exhibited within the Great Gallery of the Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence, Italy, in November 2012.

The composition utilizes layered synthesizers and processed sounds, creating a slowly evolving and immersive listening experience. Its sustained notes and subtle harmonic shifts are intended to encourage contemplation and a sense of spaciousness.

Lux received generally positive reviews, with critics praising its immersive quality, its ability to create a calming atmosphere, and its effective use of subtle changes in tone and texture to maintain listener engagement over its extended duration. The album also achieved commercial success, charting in several countries.
