Passengers
Brian Eno worked with U2 under the Passengers name to produce a series of pieces for fictional movies. This effort allowed the group to break from their stadium rock heritage and explore a cinematic, experimental method of composition.
The production relies on electronic textures and ambient sounds common in mid-nineties art-rock. It evokes the feeling of a city drive at night, combining lush instrumentals with the haunting vocal contributions of Luciano Pavarotti on the track Miss Sarajevo.
