The actual band name for this release is Amorphous Androgynous, but some regional record companies didn't like that the first new album from the group in 6 years was under an alternate band name so they changed the band name without the artists' consent. In some regions (like the US) it is changed to "Future Sound Of London present Amorphous Androgynous", in others it is changed to "Future Sound Of London".
There is also 2 remake versions. The first (the 2 CD "The Isness and The Otherness") can be found here: The Isness & The Otherness. The Otherness was later released as a stand alone compilation (Jan 2004 for the 2cd version, Apr 2004 for the stand alone).
The second remake is the "Abbey Road Version" and can be found on this page.
