Good but
Good but it’s almost July … wheres SUMMER ?
Sorry Geht gar nicht
Für eine App die 35 Euro kostet erwarte ich persönlich mehr. Brian Eno hin oder her. Sorry, aber für das hier nur Klänge ablaufen, man aber nichts mit machen kann ist das ne Frechheit.
Excellent!!!
Great for lovers of the ambient genre. Runs well on M3 iMAC. OS 15.3.1. The app has a message suggesting to use external speakers or headphones. I have not listened on either speakers or headphones yet, but have found using the M3’s internal speakers with Boom (calibrated to the M3), with ‘Ambience’ feature engaged (up to about 6/ 1 0’clock) to work quite well with the ambient nature of this piece. Have been a huge fan of Brian Eno, have ‘Reflection’ on CD, and I learned about the generative version a while back, shortly after it was released in 2017. Provides an excellent relaxing, yet interesting background while using the M3. Generally I find the M3 iMac speaker/ audio system lacking compared to modest powered speakers or a decent pair of earbuds or headphones. I have noticed that the iMac built-in speakers sound better if it is positioned away from a wall or flat surface

Amazing.
Amazing generative music app. Had this from its launch on the iPhone / iPad and not usable wonderfully on the Mac. I still use this for sleeping and when I need a bit of salt generative music. Well worth the £££.
Great song but app needs fixing
I experience an issue with the app when listening is interrupted by any notification then it pauses automatically but does not start where it left off upon playing, forcing me to restart the song each time I get a notification, causing the app to lose its purpose in playing an ongoing iterative track. This is disappointing since everything else about it is great.

Beautiful
Reflection is beautiful and has given me years of enjoyment. Now I wish very much that the developers would return to it and adapt it to Spatial Audio.
App no longer appears on Apple TV Home Screen
I can still open the app from the App Store on Apple TV but the icon is gone from my Apple TV home page. Why?
Pretty great
Runs really good on m1. Official support for it would still be nice because it can't go completely fullscreen and whatnot.
Almost amazing.
I want to love this but there’s a super shrill (12,000+hz tone- like someone standing next to you screaming Eeeeeeeeeeee) that has been introduced into the generative mix. It is ear splitting and so painful and really destroys the joy of what could be. I’m hoping it’s something that’s just part of summer, if it’s sticking around in the fall, I guess it’s time to delete this. Really sad.

Una verdadera pasada
Va más allá de sus últimos trabajos. Es Ambient elevado al infinito. Tras estar en su exposición de Barcelona de hace unos años, comencé a comprender más su música ilimitada, su concepción sonora del tiempo — ¿o sería su concepción temporal del sonido?— que rompe con las convenciones.
Aunque ya hay experimentos sobre ello, creo que el siguiente paso que debería dar Brian Eno sería que esa sonoridad variase según quien la escuchara (hay apps que lo hacen según el lugar, la hora del día o las constantes vitales que llegan a través de los relojes interactivos).

The falling asleep app I’ve settled on
I enjoy falling asleep to white noise, music, etc., And I have tried a lot of apps with good success on quite a few. I balked at the price for this one at first, but it has become the one that never gets old for me.
I really hope that they Will make it available as an Apple Watch app so I can use it even when my phone isn’t nearby.

Money well spent.
I was a little apprehensive at first dropping £30 on this app but I had used other Brian Eno / Peter Chilvers apps before and they were great and importantly updated over time to keep them working with IOS updates etc.
I still use Bloom a lot for creating hypnotic patterns. Listening to Bloom is good, but this app feels so much more sophisticated as a music generator. It really feels like someone is there making the music!
Perfect for listening anytime of the day and wonderful to sleep to. I often play Sounds of the Lid to drift off to sleep but this app has recently taken their place.
Ambient music on tap! Money well spent.
UPDATE: One small annoyance I've found from using the app over time is the timer controls are too close to the bottom of the screen and are very difficult to control. Not sure if this is just because I'm on an iPhone 11pro. They just need lifting further up into the screen as there is plenty of free space.
Still an amazing app that I use almost every day!
UPDATE 2: Still using the app pretty much every day! Been a life saver for relaxing during the past year of craziness!

Season Choices?
It’s a fantastic ambient music composition, and ranks among Eno’s best ambient work. But for the price, at the very least we should be able to choose between the seasons. I got it recently and therefore have “Autumn”. I would very much like to hear or see the differences in the other seasons, but they appear to be previous versions, no longer available in the app. Would the developer consider allowing the old seasons to still be chosen within the app? (If/when that happens, I’ll update to five stars!)

Wunderbar
Dies ist ein wunderbares Werk. Sicherlich erschreckt der hohe Preis, zumal die vergleichbare App von Jarre mit Namen Eōn preiswerter ist, obwohl sie auch ein akustisches Perpetuum mobile zu sein scheint. Jetzt fehlt nur eine solche App von Vangelis und Klaus Schulze und wir können endlos im Elysium der Klänge verweilen.
Ich mische diese App mit den Naturklängen von Lang Elliott’s Pure Nature und bin im himmlischen Zaubergarten.
Eine herrliche ewige Indtallation wie ein akustischer Bachlauf.
Trotz hohem Preis und keinerlei Einflussnahmeoption eine absolute Kaufempfehlung!

表示時間の設定があります
音楽はよく、ずっと流し続けているのですが、AppleTVで再生していると画像が消えます。
音楽は聞こえているのですが、いきなり消えるので、TVが壊れたか、と思ってしまいます。表示時間の設定があり、注意が必要です。デフォルト設定が30分だったので消えたように見えました。

Wonderful, relaxing, hypnotic and immersive
I never buy apps, but have enjoyed Brian Eno for years from Music for Airports, Discreet Music and more recent work.
The app does not loop but explores similar sounds and themes in a relaxing and gentle way. I use this almost daily for meditation listening on bose headphones and find it the perfect way to escape and recharge.
From the number of times (hours) listened it’s cost me less than a penny or two.
My only regret is that it won’t play over my Sonos set, though the intimacy of the experience would be diminished.

Not much for the price
While I appreciate that this was suppose to be an artistic expression, and I usually blame myself for being duped into spending too money on something with little value, I feel a little blindsided by this app. Judging by the interactive experiences provided by previously released apps, I was expecting much the same here and was left completely wanting. The listener has no control whatsoever of the listening experience. Art, yes, I get it, but I could have easily put this piece on loop for free in Apple Music and not known the difference. My ear is apparently not discerning enough to care if there are subtle changes in the composition. Also, the “space frequencies” are absolute nails on a chalk board. I’m likely going to delete this app because I can’t stand them.
UPDATE:
While I’m still going to caution all comers about the price and warn them about the lack of interactivity, I’m here to admit that I have NOT deleted the app from my phone after all and have spent the last two weeks listening to it for most of my work day. It really is oddly addictive and very comforting. I’ve also found that paired with a nature sound such as rain or wind it makes an excellent study/focus tool that also blocks out background noise. I’ve even gotten accustomed to the “space frequency” sounds that have actually served to draw my attention back to the music and refocus me when I start to drift.

Seasons?
I am enjoying this app quite a bit, but unsure of when the seasons switch. It is, after all, not summer where I am.
gratitude
I've been listening to this for almost two years, sometimes for days at a time, and it is still interesting and powerful. I'm listening to it now. It does not lose interest in repetition but gains strength as it burrows deeper in time.
Reflections on Reflection
After decades of listening to Brian Eno’s ambient music, it is now fused with my DNA. It is always somewhere in my life every day.
However, what I truly love and miss this time around - with Reflection - is a tiny bit of emotion here and there in the music, whether it is a slow withering texture or a slight chord change, a wash or something barely there. I do find the sound ingredients of Reflection to be a little limited, recognisable and mechanical. I find myself listening to LUX a lot more. I think it would be great if Brian added some new tints and textures here and there with each seasonal update to lend a little more feeling. I want this to be his best creation so badly! I’m here for this.
