When Eliane Radigue departed this realm in February 2026, at age 94, she left behind a singular, inimitable body of work. Her focus on slowly changing, highly detailed drone music yielded numerous monoliths among which Adnos stands tall. Composed and recorded on tape between 1973-1982 using an Arp 2500 modular synthesizer, these astonishing pieces exemplify Radigue's quote about how slow changes, vibrations deep within her sounds, ultimately shape the textures of her sonic work: "If a stone in the river moves, the river is not changed, but after a long time it becomes something completely different." This 2026 repress preserves the 2013 package design; a thorough collaboration between Eliane Radigue and John Brien of Important Records. A 24-page booklet of Adnos-era archival material accompanies the three compact discs in a heavy-duty quad-fold, 8-panel cardboard jacket printed inside and out.

"Time is of no importance. All that counts is the duration necessary for a seamless development. My music evolves organically. It's like a plant. We never see a plant move, but it is growing continually. Like plants, immobile but always growing, my music is never stable. It is ever changing." --Eliane Radigue

"A steady stream of sonic activity taking place right at the edge of one's perception." --New York Times

"This piece represents the height of musical sensitivity." --Village Voice
