A bit of interesting speculation here, from the Facebook page of Renaat Vandepapeliere, boss of renowned ambient/electronic label R&S: "New FSOL to come on R&S or Apollo ( who knows ????? )".
It's vague, but it's very interesting, if not only for the fact that it's the first sign of a FSOL release to come out on anything other than FSOLDigital/J&P since... well, technically We Have Explosive, if we're being strict about the definition of 'FSOL'. It's also hard to believe this is entirely a groundless assumption, given the level of respect the label has (and thus the unlikeliness of untrue rumours being spread), and also several pictures of Gaz with Renaat having a rather good time also being shared (see
here). Time will tell whether this will be one of the many already expected releases, or something new.
In other news, there is a new Neotropic DVD available through FSOLDigital entitled
Small Moves, largely based around musical material from her fourth album
White Rabbits. The DVD is available by following

On the subject of Neotropic, Riz will be contributing a 15 minute mix to the next volume of Terminal Radio, the series of internet transmissions put together by the FSOLBoard (as part of this site). The two hour transmissions are put together by members of the forum and other FSOL fans around the world, and feature previews of the latest FSOLDigital releases at the start. Alongside Neotropic, other FSOLDigital artists featured on the series include Herd, Ross Baker, and in the future, Seafar.
You can hear the first three Terminal Radio transmissions
here, and follow progress on the series
on the forum. The fourth volume, feature Neotropic, is due to be streamed online at Fnoob on 25th February 2013.
