The Future Sound of London 's "Environments" series of which another is planned, it was released on 29 August 2008.The album
Continuing from the first album in the series, part II is equally ambient (as opposed to the more breakbeat led material of their albums and archive series), but features strings, choir sounds and synthesiers, in contrast to the more abstract, sample-based nature of the original album. There are a few low-fi type tracks with subtle beats, similair in sound to tracks from
Aphex Twin 's "Selected Ambient Works..." series. The strings mentioned are Goldenthalian in sound and weave into the electronic ambience. The album features contributions byMax Richter , Daniel Pemberton, Chris Margory,Robert Fripp ,Colin Bell and Will White. [http://www.secondthought.co.uk/fsol/]Track Listing
