The Future Sound of London - 2020 Calendar Album

https://www.fsoldigital.com/product/fsol-2020-calendar/

The return of the physical calendar

Dang, it couldn't at least be all-new artwork for the calendar?

I wish they had a music only option for the AA calendar.

So it's January, is this thing happening?

Brian is usually really late with the track updates, sometimes in the last day or two of the month.

Yeah, they're normally the 20-somethingth, I think November 2019's was actually on the 30th.

Last year's calendar album was absolutely superb, the more I listen to it the more I think it could actually end up in my top 10 FSOL records, so my hopes are high for this year's.

New track out today. Written just this month and suitably lush.

I’d agree that the 2019 album is among their best stuff. So many different vibes, sequenced perfectly together though.

I've never really listened to FSOL -  could anyone give me a recommendation of a particular album?

Classic.

This is a great album, thank you!

Can't believe this one hasn't been mentioned - https://www.discogs.com/The-Future-Sound-Of-London-Lifeforms/master/6526

Lifeforms and Dead Cities are the two go-to albums for newbies. The best of is really, really not. 

ISDN, Archives 5 & 9, Environments 4, 5 and 6.5 would be my next steps after that. But there's so much gold. Just be wary of anything labelled Amorphous Androgynous from 2002, as it's their psych-rock project which is mostly very different.

Yeah, definitely echo that sentiment also

Ross: Reached a weird point in my life that I now can't decide between ISDN and Dead Cities as my fave FSOL album. Is this what a mid-life crisis is ?

The answer is Lifeforms.
