Ambient 1: Music for Airports
''Ambient 1: Music for Airports'' is the sixth studio album by Brian Eno. It was released by Polydor Records in 1978. The album consists of four compositions created by layering tape loops of differing lengths. It was the first of four albums released in Eno's "Ambient" series, a term which he coined to differentiate his experimental and minimalistic approach to composition from "the products of the various purveyors of canned music".〔(Brian Eno, September 1978, from the liner notes of Music for Airports )〕 Though it is not the earliest entry in the genre, it was the first album ever to be explicitly created under the label "ambient music."
==Overview==
Eno had previously created similarly quiet, unobtrusive music on albums such as ''Another Green World'', ''Evening Star'', ''Discreet Music'', ''Music for Films'' and Harold Budd's ''The Pavilion of Dreams'' (which he produced), but this was the first album to give it precedence as a cohesive concept.
The music was designed to be continuously looped as a sound installation, with the intent of defusing the tense, anxious atmosphere of an airport terminal. To achieve this, Eno sought to create music "as ignorable as it is interesting."〔 Rather than brightening the atmosphere as typical background music does, ''Music for Airports'' is "intended to induce calm and a space to think."〔 Eno conceived this idea while spending several hours waiting at Cologne Bonn Airport in Germany in the mid-1970s and being annoyed by the uninspired sound atmosphere.〔(Harriet Baskas, Better branding through music: Original airport theme songs, USA Today, 12-March-2008 )〕
It was installed at the Marine Air Terminal of New York's LaGuardia Airport for a brief period during the 1980s. It was one of the first albums to be featured on Apple Music's Beats 1 Radio streaming service.
