The Future Sound of London (often abbreviated to FSOL) is a British electronic music band, the duo of Garry Cobain and Brian Dougans.
Although often labelled as ambient, Dougans and Cobain usually resist being pigeon-holed into any one particular genre. Their work covers most areas of electronic music, such as ambient techno, drum and bass, trip-hop, ambient dub, pure ambient, and often involves extreme experimentation. They have also garnered a reputation as remixers, transforming the work of a variety of different artists, including Curve, Robert Fripp, David Sylvian, Gary Lucas, Jon Anderson, and Apollo 440. The results are often novel and complex, and in some instances the original track is barely recognisable.
The artists are notoriously enigmatic. In addition to music composition, their interests have covered a number of areas including film and video, 2D and 3D computer graphics and animation, and radio broadcasting.
