The micro-compositions are the pieces themselves, but the macro-composition is the whole set of them and how it moves from track to track and how the titles relate to one another, for example. Always when I do records like this of a selection of instrumental pieces - the titles, to me, are very important.
— Brian Eno

And we accordingly often find that the finished work disappoints the expectation that was raised from the sketch.
