Earthbeat (The Future Sound of London album)
Earthbeat is a compilation album of Future Sound of London's early releases, using several aliases. All of the tracks on this album are by Garry Cobain and Brian Dougans (FSOL) but under pseudonyms such as 'Mental Cube' and 'Yage'. The duo had been releasing songs under these aliases for around two years before they recorded "Accelerator" as FSOL.[1]

The reason given by Cobain for releasing it is that they wanted to release an EP with loads of singles on it and that at the time they were strapped for cash and they were getting £1000 a track. This album is also very rare as it has been out of print for years.[1]

gollark: Regarding 14, do you REALLY think I would use LOW-LEVEL things like bitops?
gollark: I'm sure you'd like to think so.
gollark: I didn't either, I would put the right amount of spacing in.
gollark: I can neither unconfirm nor antideny that I didn't not unwrite something which may or may not have possibly been equivalent or not the same as 11.
