Format:Audio CD
The title/artist of this CD belies the content; this is actually an album by The Future Sound of London, made up of the leftovers after "Lifeforms" was released. Not to disparage it by any means; this is quality stuff! It's just that the material didn't fit in with the rest of "Lifeforms" so rather than shelve it, FSOL released it under another name. Consequently, if you like FSOL, from their first to most recent album, you'll love this CD. Twisting between undefinable sounds and haunting melodies with phat beats and bass to die for, this album is all we have come to expect from FSOL. Can't wait for the new album out after Xmas 2000...

Thoroughly recommended if you like fsol,basically outtakes from the lifeforms sessions,being in favour of using monikers,fsol released this as amorphous androgenous,not much hype with the release,but for those in the know,this is a gem of an album,easily on a par with their best work to date(still waiting for new sounds boys!).one track segues into another,not exactly ambience more beats orientated,i like to use the expression 'liquid sounds' when describing this album and much of fsol's later work,the sounds are so crisp,clear,clean and dirty,just close your eyes when listening,images build up in your mind almost as if its narrating a place or time to you,give it a try you wont be disappointed

Sadly this is the type of old stuff no one cares for anymore. Regardless, this little jewel is a masterpiece of ambient sounds and some beats which stands highest among "early" electronica stuff. Everyone who likes FSOL will like this even better. All of the tracks are very good and it is a very pleasurable album to listen to in the dark, letting your mind go, flowing freely. Great artwork too.
I got into FSOL and related releases when I was living in London, so these albums are very cherished to me. I guess I am a nostalgic, anyway.

Very deep ambient trip
Back in 1993 I didn't quite know what to make of 'Tales of Ephidrina' on first listen. By the 4th or 5th listen the penny dropped and it became one of my favourite ambient/... Read more

Oft-forgotten ambient techno gem
Due to its 'side-project' nature, and suggestions of it being leftovers from 1994's FSOL album "Lifeforms", "Tales of Ephidrina" often gets left out of discussions and lists... Read more

if you like FSOL then you better buy this!
along the lines of acelerator but with more of an ambient twist, it will make you want to watch predator again !
