  Volume 4 May 19, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Even though The Future Sound of London don't seem interested in releasing new music anymore, they sure do have a lot of unused material from the 90s that they've been dishing out. In 2007 fans were treated to 3 full length albums worth of what FSOL called "From The Arhives". There was some good music on these CDs no doubt about it, but they tended to get boring with the long running times (70 mins) and most tracks sounded very much like tracks from previous albums. So the end result for me was rather unsatisfied. I personally thought they should have just condensed it down to 1 CD and picked the best songs. Anyways, volume 4 od the series is a step in the right direction... A shorter run time of 50 mins and mostly strong tracks. To me, this is how it should have been from the get-go. If FSOL release more of these in the future, this is how i hope they do it.
