The FSOL Message Board

Let's be scientific - it's not saying 'we are all aliens', it's saying 'some of life's raw ingredients may have originated in space'. Very different things.

(Sorry, I just hate it when science is misquoted)

If you do something interesting or creative with it, then it's not a problem. Sampling goes from chart dance and hip-hop stuff that's literally taken another song and put a beat behind it, right through to FSOL who are probably the most creative users of samples there's ever been (and that's not the...

Well, it's on the autism spectrum so it varies from case to case, obviously some people have it worse than others. I'm definitely what's called high functioning. I've also had various friends and "friends" in the past who've told me (in supportive ways and nasty ways) of how I'm doing thin...

Also bearing in mind that I have Asperger's, I'm not sure I'd actually be able to give my kid any time. New FSOL album vs. kid's first day at school - FSOL would win, nobrainer. Ha.

Ah I've just had so many people seem to think we're wrong/mistaken for not wanting kids. I think there's such a huge amount of responsibility in having children - i.e. can you be responsible parents, bring up the children in a way that hugely benefits them. I genuinely don't foresee a time when Lucy...

Gotta give them props for going with Cry Baby over the more obvious Stakker, and for Stolen Documents and Creator. Bit disappointed there's nothing from Orbital's debut though. http://www.factmag.com/2013/07/08/evols-new-acid-house-mixtape-is-14-minutes-long-and-has-301-tracks-you-need-to-hear-it/ M...

It's more the production than anything, compositionally the two aren't like that - but most of the synth sounds, the acoustic guitar strums... it just sounds like they were recorded in the same studio at the same time by the same people.

Ross, I hope you and your girlfriend will your change your mind... It's also comments like this that make us want to not have kids - we've been told by so many people that we should have them etc. - as if one way is correct and one isn't. We're taking what we think is a responsible decision and oft...

Interestingly, Room 5 has now disappeared entirely...

I love Von and ( ). The rest I've not been so taken on - that said I've not heard the last two.

Ah Another Green World is just so utterly... there aren't any words. I love how pastoral it sounds. Even the pop songs (maybe apart from the first track) have that pastoral ambience to them, rather than the glam sound of his first two records. In terms of ambient stuff, The Big Ship and Becalmed are...

Been with my girlfriend for nearly four years now, although it's closer to five if you include the first on-and-off year. We're engaged, but marriage plans are only really tentative - the engagement is more of a sign of commitment to each other than anything. No kids planned - conservation is someth...

Brian Eno - Before and After Science

Always fighting Another Green World as my favourite Eno album.

Howdy and welcome! Nothing like that planned at the minute - the only (relatively) immediate FSOL project is Environments 5, otherwise nothing else seems to be lined up. That we know of...
