The IOS version of Reflections seems to do more than play tracks in a random order - it's very much like his Neroli CD with it's single long track only it somehow makes an integrated musical work out of shifting which sounds get played when and what gets played next to what while still making musical sense. It probably helps that, like Neroli, there's only one or two sounds at a time and the transients tend to be spaced out a bit with long reverbs filling the space in between.
Peter Chilvers gets the credit for "architecture" and Eno for the music/sounds.
It's a very well done, well produced and interesting work. The ambience does tend towards being a bit unsettling and spooky at times though.
