Here was displayed for the first time the many variants of IDM, showing that there was much more to Ambient than just atmospheric instrumental tracks : from the deep moody electronica of david Morley or Biosphere, to the dub-influenced collages of the Orb's remix of Electrotete, and the detroit techno of Model 500 at its most subtle, every track here is a gem, making it an unrivalled release. Opens your ears, refreshes your mind.

Officially the release was titled Apollo 1 (check the old R&S/Apollo site as reference), but because of the sticker and lack of a true visible name on the cd/record, it was later known as the "File Under Ambient" comp.

I don't know if this was meant to be the title (although I leaning towards "yes") but on my copy, it had a sticker that said "File Under Ambient". Most sites I've seen which mention this release seem to think that this is the title.
