This album was their first after signing with Virgin; they moved to London from Manchester and were given a free hand to do what they wanted. [ [http://www.clashmusic.com/feature/future-sound-london Future Sound of London : Music News Feature | Clash Music ] ] The album is unique, in that it is the only album they recorded in the 1990s not to be recorded at their Earthbeat studio, and is also the only release on the band's short lived stem of Virgin Records, Quigley. [http://www.secondthought.co.uk/fsol] The long awaited 2007/2008 release of "Environments" was announced in the liner notes of this album and was even given a US catalog number but it was effectively postponed until 2007.
