Doesn't Abdulmajid Sound a Bit Like Eno's Sombre Reptiles?

Well at least in the rhythm section.

I guess that's just a basic drum machine of the time.

There is a similarity but the other sounds overlaid do make them sound quite different. WHat I found remarkable is I have always regarded Eno's music as laid back (not sure how to say what I mean) but listening to the 2 songs together, Eno's sounds much more upbeat than Bowie's.

Re: Doesn't Abdulmajid Sound a Bit Like Eno's Sombre Reptiles, only less upbeat?

That grin suggests otherwise.

Smile at least
