Ambient music pioneer and former Roxy Music star Brian Eno has released Trope for iPhone and iPod touch.
The application via Opal, is the work of Eno along with musician and software designer Peter Chilvers. Trope is a follow up to Bloom, an Eno application from 2008, which was billed as part instrument, part composition and part artwork.
"Trope is a different emotional experience from Bloom - more introspective, more atmospheric. It shows that generative music, as one of the newest forms of sonema, can draw on a broad palette of moods," insists Eno.
Available from the Apple iTunes App Store Trope costs 2.39 and requires the iPhone 3.0 Software Update or later.
Also new on the iTunes Store from the same Opal team is Air, a generative audio-visual work created by Chilvers and vocalist Sandra O'Neil.
Based on concepts by Eno, Air costs 1.19 and requires the iPhone 2.2 Software Update or later.
Eno is also known for his innovative work as a producer including a series of best selling albums from U2.
