First Repressing of Cobalt Blue on Vinyl & Debut Pressing of Live at the Aquarium
Inventor of the “infinite guitar” and Grammy-nominated film composer (with credits including Heat, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Into the Wild), Canadian musician Michael Brook announces the first vinyl reissue of his 1992 4AD record Cobalt Blue and the vinyl debut of Live at the Aquarium, both out July 10 — a long-overdue celebration of underrated gems in the 4AD catalogue, newly remastered by Rashad Becker and presented on Crystal Clear 2×LP and 2CD with artwork by Alison Fielding based on the original v23 designs.
Cobalt Blue is a timeless and quietly stunning collection of instrumental pieces and shimmering dreamscapes, featuring contributions from ambient music pioneer Brian Eno, composer & multi-instrumentalist Roger Eno, and Grammy-winning producer Daniel Lanois. Recorded later that year, Live at the Aquarium captures Brook’s rare solo performance in London, highlighting the hypnotic sustain and atmosphere that define his work.
