In 2010 Brian Eno signed to Warp Records. Warp promoted the launch of Small Craft on a Milk Sea – Eno's first album for the label – with seven music videos, released on a weekly basis in the run-up to the release. The videos were hosted on different media sites around the world. In time, most of the links broke and the information on the campaign was wiped from Warp's Brian-Eno.net site. EnoWeb thought it might be nice to have a permanent record of the project. Links are to the remaining two original locations, and Edmund Emile Kemper IV's archives on YouTube.


Seven performances in seven weeks. New improvised compositions from Brian Eno, Jon Hopkins & Leo Abrahams, filmed in Eno's own London studio. A unique insight into the making of Small Craft on a Milk Sea.

It's also worth mentioning here that Warp released a short video of rehearsals for the Eno • Hyde Someday World album in 2014. Again, this has disappeared from the Eno • Hyde site.
