Lifeforms - Future Sound Of London (1994)

ideated from: 1994 being the best year in music history

I don’t recall the story of how I decided to buy this. I might have bought it at the same time as the Artificial Intelligence 2 comp or right around then as I was first getting into IDM and ambient. Whatever, though; I’m glad I did.

This record is everything I love about 90s electronic music: entirely other-wordly soundscapes that calm and upset and fade into your consciousness and fade back out. The soundtrack to a film you build in your head.
