U2

What's the connection?


>Fred Frith

jason derulo -> birdman -> lil wayne -> kanye -> coldplay -> brian eno

Jason Derulo's hit "Whatcha Say" heavily samples "Hide & Seek" by Imogen Heap who also wrote "Glittering Cloud" for the compilation album Plague Songs which also features "Flies" by Brian Eno

Am I doing this one right or did they have to actually work on a track together?

You didn't show birdman enough RESPEK

BOOM!

I'm using a tool like this but this is the one I remember
now we gotta find artists who have the most degrees of separation

hard mode: Benis man

Fun fact, no he didn't. Eno produced Outside. 1, but other than that the Berlin albums were actually NOT produced by Eno but long-time Bowie producer Tony Visconti. Eno just collaborated.

The Powers That B contains Bjork samples
Bjork recorded Mount Wittenberg Orca with Dirty Projectors
Dirty Projectors recorded Knotty Pine with David Byrne for the Dark Was the Night compilation
David Byrne and Eno had a long and fruitful relationship.

too soon

Halsey worked with Bieber on Purpose
Bieber worked with Nicki Minaj on Beauty and a Beat
Nicki is featured on "Monster" alongside Jay Z
Jay Z did that performance at the Grammys with Coldplay a few years back

Billy Corgan? Who the hell knows

you're good

Pitbull, Moby, and Billy Corgan are all in the same amateur bowling team as Brian

?

Corgan Collaborated with David Bowie on his 50th birthday concert.
Bowie and Eno needs no introduction.

Did you just intentionally choose bald people as an Eno joke or is that a coincidence?

Billy Corgan and Mike Mills worked together on Siamese Dream
Mike Mills worked with Scott Litt frequently in R.E.M
Scott Litt helped produce Patti Smith's "Dream of Life"
Patti Smith often collaborated with Tom Verlaine of Television
Bowie covered "Kingdom Come" by Tom Verlaine on Scary Monsters
Bowie worked with Eno frequently.

I feel like there has to be a faster way.

Wow, yep. There was a faster way.

This was a joke, right? I have to assume this was a joke.

Y-You've got to be joking

Weezer

Jethro Tull producer Terry Ellis worked with Procol Harum

Procol Harum worked with Denny Cordell

Cordell was a mentor of Tony Visconti

bob dylan

this is so freaky - I was thinking of this exact game earlier today

Dave Fridmann worked on Pinkerton
Dave Fridmann produced an MGMT album
MGMT have a song named Brian Eno

Alternatively

Rivers Cuomo of Weezer and Mos Def both appear on Mark Ronson's album Here Comes the Fuzz
Mos Def worked with Damon Albarn on the Gorillaz album Plastic Beach

Cool thread

Do Xiu Xiu

Bowie Produced Lou Reed's Transformer
Bowie and Eno etc.

I'll make that easier for you

Eno was on a Nico album called "The End..."

The Microphones

James Jamerson

Xiu Xiu released an album called Xiu Xiu Plays the Music of Twin Peaks

Twin Peaks was created by David Lynch

David Lynch made a NIN video

Trent has worked with Bowie

le bowie+eno

varg was in mayhem, a highly influential black metal band
death grips used a black metal beat in giving bad people good ideas
death grips sampled bowie
bowie>>>eno

The closest I can get with James Ferraro:

>made an album with Dean Blunt
>who was a member of Hype Williams
>who sampled a Britney Spears track
>who had a track produced by Guy Sigsworth
>who was a member of Frou Frou
>who had a track that sampled an Eno track, An Ending (Ascent)

The sample thing is tenuous though: any jackoff can be "related" to Brian Eno by sampling his records. He's part of Skaters, who are related to dozens of other prolific noise bands, but that seems to be a 100% self-contained scene.

St. Vincent made an album with David Byrne

James Ferraro collab with David Borden

Borden played Philip Glass comps

I was going to be a little shit and say "MGMT, without using the track they literally named 'Brian Eno'", but then I realized that it would basically be

Ian MacKaye produced a John Frusciante EP
Frusciante was in Red Hot Chili Peppers with Flea
Flea was in Rocket Juice & The Moon with Damon Albarn
Damon Albarn worked with Eno on Everyday Robots

Merzbow

>James Jamerson played on Yvonne Fair's 1975 album "The Bitch is Black"
