So, are they really the future sound? :-)
I listened to there Isness cd today, and I think it is crap. Before they used to make good techno music, but now they just make easy-going boring music. It is really sad to see it happen.
But I like their older cds, for example Accellerator is really good, or Dead Cities.

You should, it's one of FSOL finest moments.

I like Dead Cities. On a whim, I bought the Double LP when it was released about 10 years ago.

wait till obara gets here.
Dead Cities is excellent. Lifeforms is excellent. ISDN is at times excellent. Amorphous Androgynous is excellent.
I still havent checked accelerator.

I was playing the Papua New Guinea remix album that comes with the re-re-re-re-re-released Accelator only this morning. And it's still a legend, in any form. The original is the best obviously but I do like the Blue States mix. Yes.

I really like the Mellow Magic Maze remix of PNG. I'm assuming that it's FSOL themselves, but whoever it is it works for me.

apart from papua i enjoy their singles the most. lifeforms, cascade, my kingdom. they're a combination of magic trips and classical symphonies. magic trips with recurring themes.

The Isness and Alice in Ultraland are a completely different project from the Future Sound of London... they were actually meant to be released under the Amorphous Androgynous moniker only (not FSOL). if i remember well, they will continue to release "classic-style" FSOL music as well, so don't worry if you don't like their psychedelic poppy style.
i like both. but FSOL being like a "flow" to me, i'd have a hard time differentiating between different tracks and i'm not sure i need/want any more of the same style... don't get me wrong, i like them very much, their sound is quite unique and Lifeforms especially is really great, but i'd like them to try something new in the electronic field.

shut the fuck up, noob. you're playing a long-respected xlt member in almost every thread i've come too. you're getting on my nerves, really with your pseudo cool comments.
if ANY new member wants to discuss music on this board you can't stop them. either it's FSOL or else.
==============================
Dead Cities is the peak of their career, in my opinion. together with the ISDN and Peel sessions.
Isness and Alice - it's different stuff, completely different direction due to Cobain's .....fixation ?

it's kinda bullshit to justify the crapness of the Isness by saying it was supposed to be released as Amorphous Androgynous. I mean, I'm listening to Tales of Ephedrina right now and it is total class and nothing like that hippy-wanking-on-a-shiny-new-sitar sounding bullshit The Isness.
