Belgian independent label De:tuned celebrates 15 years with an expansive series of new releases throughout 2024. Founded in 2009 by Ruben Boons and Bert Hermans, De:tuned and British influential electronic music pioneers The Future Sound Of London team up to mark the beginning of its momentous 15th anniversary.
The inimitable Future Sound Of London grace De:tuned with ‘Pulse Five’, the 5th installment and follow-up to the classic Pulse EP series. ‘Pulse Five’ contains 8 tracks of previously unreleased DAT tape material from the early 90s.

This is the sheer brilliance of the iconic duo in full effect.

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
'Honesty' is the full version of 'LA7' from the early digital release of From the Archives Vol 3. The Nu Generation was obviously on one of the Calendar albums.
I think this will go down pretty well - the alias tracks are less like their rave material and closer in style to things like Fuzzy Logic and Accelerator. The FSOL tracks feel more like they're from '92/'93, think Ephidrina / Tokyo Travel / Plazmatical.
01. The Future Sound of London - Honesty
02. The Future Sound of London - Dialectics
03. Yage - Sun Risen
04. Mental Cube - Big Lie
05. Smart Systems - The Nu Generation
06. Indo Tribe - Obstinta
07. The Future Sound of London - Reasonable Aquiries
08. Yage - Man Shall Be Conditioned
No idea if there's an expanded CD version coming on FSOLDigital. Wouldn't be surprised if there is, but who knows.

So it is

Damnit why'd you have to say that - Now I'm not sure whether to grab it from De:Tuned or wait for the fsoldigital release

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
I knew I had heard it somewhere before. I feel like I have heard elements of Dialectics as well, like they used the drums slowed down on something else... I can't place it right now.
I'm loving all the clips so I have pre-ordered.
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
Now it is clear why the FSOL was reissued PULSE EP VOL.1 / MENTAL CUBE
https://fsol.bandcamp.com/album/pulse-ep-vol-1 / https://fsol.bandcamp.com/album/so-this-is-love
It's great that they will release "Honesty" I know I've heard it somewhere before, thanks Ross for the clarification.
I don't see the point in releasing it on CD. For me the sound quality is the same as on the CD, which is digitally the same.
There are already more tracks than you need for an EP on two vinyls, bonuses can also be saved for Pulse Six...
We are waiting for a digital reissue on bandcamp Pulse 2-4![Uber Geek :ugeek:](./images/smilies/icon_e_ugeek.gif)

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
For people who still listen to CDs, I’d imagine. Same reason every other release comes out on CD.
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
The shipping to Canada cost as much as the vinyl itself, but this is still my first vinyl purchase by FSOL in 30 years.
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
Vinyl costs (and shipping costs) have become so untenable for me that only in the rarest of the rare occasions (e.g. a nice picture disc) will I order a physical copy of music nowadays (N.B. still buy them - not turned into a nasty pirate, just buy them as digital downloads !)
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
This isn't really on topic (sorry) but it's a shame they haven't released anymore Sand Sound Folly other than the Salient Moons 1973 EP. And that was 10 years agoRoss wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 6:18 pm 'Honesty' is the full version of 'LA7' from the early digital release of From the Archives Vol 3.

Back on topic, Pulse Five sound promising. Always good to get more Yage, another of my favourites from the aliases.
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
Salient Moons was initially planned to be an album but never got finished. I love that EP, I’ve already petitioned Brian for a second haha.
Other than that Yage EP in 2020 we’ve not actually had a proper alias release in nearly eight years, it’s just been FSOL and Humanoid, hasn’t it?

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
Same as me for the most part. I get special editions and stuff I stumble across in record shops, but otherwise, the shipping costs too much. For FSOL, I prefer the continous play of digital and CDs. I would have bought the reissues of Lifeforms and Dead Cities on vinyl if anything new had been added. This one is different though as I imagine it will have breaks between the tracks.mcbpete wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2023 2:12 pm Vinyl costs (and shipping costs) have become so untenable for me that only in the rarest of the rare occasions (e.g. a nice picture disc) will I order a physical copy of music nowadays (N.B. still buy them - not turned into a nasty pirate, just buy them as digital downloads !)

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
some good sounds here, look forward to hearing the full thing. 92/93 style is definitely appealing

Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
two new tracks were released this week ... 'Reasonable Aquiries' - what a track of beauty! lovely stuff <3
Re: Pulse Five out January 26th on Detuned
The full album is up on bandcamp now. I couldn't wait for the vinyl to arrive. Some great tracks and some that I imagine would mostly appeal to nostalgists of early 90s techno/rave.
