07/08/19 - Humanoid / Yage Remixes 7"

A 7" of the Humanoid and Yage remixes of B12 and Funckarma released previously on Touched Music has been released. It's also sold out, as it was a lathe cut limited to 30 copies, immediately making it the rarest FSOL-related release since Bacteria in a Baboon's Stomach. The digitals are still available from the label.

24/07/19 - More Humanoid compilation material on the way

If Built by Humanoid was a surprisingly short album for its gestation period, Brian is more than making up for that by bringing out a large amount of material from the same sessions on EPs, calendar tracks and compilations. The latest announcement is for the track 'st8818r', which is due to appear on DE:10.08 - part of the same series of 12"s that just gave home to FSOL's 'Skinny Xam' - in October of this year. The track is a dramatic reworking of 'Stakker Humanoid' - little remains of the original other than the main vocal sample - and is one of four tracks on the 12", alongside new works from Mike Dred, Luke Vibert and Air Liquide. Clips can be heard here.

There's not too much else to add at the minute other than the title. Looks like it'll probably be Issue 55.

25/06/19 - Zip File Fu*k Up

Some people are having trouble unzipping the full version of the Humanoid album. This appears to be because of the asterisk in the title of track five 'Fu*k It', which is not a valid file name character on PCs. The band are aware and will be updating the file ASAP.

Built by Humanoid is now officially available from FSOLDigital. Copies will be shipping this week, and downloads are available. All copies bought direct from the site will receive a four track bonus EP to download, featuring the tracks 'Spore', 'Quantel', 'Co-Pilot' and 'Hull'. It's very good.
