Environments 3 is the third in The Future Sound of London's "Environments" series of albums, released on 7 June 2010. Unlike previous FSOLDigital releases, the album was not made available as a download several months before the CD release. Because of this, the record was heard several weeks in advance due to early shipping from the website Juno. [1] The record sleeve announced a fourth album in the series. [2]

The album

Continuing from the previous volumes in the series, Environments 3 begins in a neoclassical, ambient vein, but instead of the epic sound of Environments 2 , takes the music in a darker, more insular direction, reflecting the sounds of the band's 1996 album Dead Cities , from which elements of some tracks are derived. However, the album remains somber and ambient for the most part. [3]
