For Future Reference is the only studio album released by the British synth-pop band Dramatis. The album itself failed to reach the UK Albums Chart, however, one of the three singles released from the album, "Love Needs No Disguise" with Gary Numan providing vocals reached number 33 on the UK Singles Chart.^[2] The other singles from the album were "Ex Luna Scientia" and "Oh! Twenty Twenty Five"—titled "Oh! 2025" on the album. The album was reissued on CD in 2000 and retitled The Dramatis Project. The reissue was also credited to Tubeway Army featuring Gary Numan,^[3] despite Numan's only contribution being the vocal to "Love Needs No Disguise".

The album was made available again in 2014 as a digital download only, this time under the title Terrestrial Channels and with Numan as the sole artist credit.^[4]
