Warner and some other companies did European editions years ago with extra tracks. (Mariah Carey and ZZTOP for example). I think the Japanese editions are a different story. In Japan, 12" are really rare and import cd singles are only available in major cities, so they put extra track on the cd album instead.

In standard retail, anyway. yup, i'll back this up (don't know what you mean by "single is 12.99 though..oh well, i'm easily confused). went to tower yesterday to see if they happened to get UK import of cydonia...nope...but they were perfectly willing to sell me the US version for 18.99..what a deal! ;) i used to work there actually, and almost all new cd's were 13.99 their 1st 2 weeks of release, but i guess they've changed that (or deemed cydonia too lame for them). i wonder why so many people love mp3's when a new full length album (sometimes only 45 minutes) costs nearly 20 bux (including tax)... in any case, i ordered the UK cydonia from hmv.co.uk and paid just over $17 for it (including shipping)...tell me where the justice is there... matt. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Benjamin L.

I've also tried good (bad) old Internet Explorer, but I'm not at all sure I'm using the right protocol for the URL.

Admittedly true, but, I just don't appreciate festivals the way I used to (getting too old, jaded, and cranky). Plus, aside from bitches about the location and amenities; festival sets generally don't actually satisfy my urge to see someone perform; too short, too cramped, too rushed, etc., etc. I'd much rather see (and pay for) the individual shows for the people I want to see, and have a better overall experience. Like I said, I hope Coachella doesn't become an ongoing excuse/justification to "skip" a proper LA show for a bunch of really good performers.

Well, I just lurk mainly, and I enjoy lurking, reading what people have to say, and maaaaybe once in a while posting something if it's a poll. But recently I've been seeing stuff that's almost personal attacks, and that just makes me plain uncomfortable. Tour dates, cool! Discussion of samples, cool! Talking about what other music you like, cool! Discussion of DJs, cool! Dissing people about what they do, or what they like, not cool. Unless they like Backstreet Boys, then it's OK to make fun of them =P ---- Jeff A Klein Bottle has zero volume, so we suggest that you do not use it as a personal flotation device. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Carlos Serrano" Subject: RE: (orb) Cydonia Vinyl :: and thoughts of Cydonia..

Date: 01 Mar 2001 18:34:36 -0800 I've been on this list for 5 years. I don't post all that much, and usually when I do it doesn't require a response, but I'm voicing my opinion on this topic. I've made many a friend on this list, quite a few of whom have moved out of the virtual realm to become a signifigant part of my offline life. (Right Chad? Steve0? Seofon? Sean?). Conversely, I also liberally use my delete key when there are threads I don't care about, and have even gone so far as to filter out messages from members that might regularly annoy me. There's hundreds of people on this list - you're bound to not like/agree with/understand everyone. Although Smiley and JC may be the resident officiandos, in the course of 5 years I have seen the regular posters come and go. .. there's always a cycling of who dominates the discussion. And while poeple disagree with each other's opinions, I've rarely seen outright bashing, namecalling or the like. In fact, I find people to be most helpful, and receptive to other's input. (Mind you, I deleted that whole thread about DJ definitions, so maybe I missed something ugly!) IMHO, this list is a great community - I can always find someone to share my excitement over the score of a rare item, help me locate records outside of my country of residence, and get me tour dates before they're published locally. What more can you want from a list? One very satisified customer, =) rachel # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "-> rachel" Subject: (orb) EGNABLE & a positive Cydonia Review Date: 01 Mar 2001 18:48:23 -0800 This is Steve0's info, but as he hasn't gottena round to posting it yet, I'll spill the beans: >quick question regarding egnable:: >i haven't caught the source mentioned yet, but is that The Man himself?! >or just another great audial find ?!? its actually Fil reading from random books/magazines and then spliced together. Steve0 - stop frontin and send us that interview transcript! ;) BTW, Revolutuion this month has a nice little blurb about Cydonia, along with the newest press photo of LX holding the model bus: Now, after a 3 year hiatus, Paterson (alongside co-conspirator Thomas Fehlmann) resurfaces with Cydonia. And thankfully, The Orb's 5th full-length album recaptures the formula that once, a decade ago, made them great. Cydonia, ready for nearly 2 years (put on hold due to impending sale of his UK label Island) reminds even Paterson of his stunning debut, and for good reason. Cydonia, like ABTU, is a wickedly engaging concept album brimming with wry Monty-Python-style British humour (Egnable), the kind that scoffs when you just passively sit back and listen to its intense ambient dub (Turn It Down) and junglized drum n bass (Thursday's Keeper). Cydonia demands that you plug in and pay attention, especially for the lovely vocals that really stand out here. Japanese singer Aki adds her delicate touches to Once More and Centuries, and Ninan Walsh's lucid lullaby shimmers on Ghostdancing. Make no mistake: The Orb's globular ambient soup is weird and wild. But in the end, is what makes them wonderful. =) rachel # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: John Moxness Subject: RE: (orb) Once More would be dreamy once more Date: 01 Mar 2001 21:44:31 -0600 I think the memory of last night and stillness will go with that tune 4ever for me Peace all woadie ===>very nice. thank you for triggering orb flash backs of my own. mine is with star 6 & 7 8 9 [slight edit phase II] in a deprivation tank. it was 10 years ago. i felt as though i was slowly tumbling through space. better than any drug i've ever had. well, almost. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Orbster Subject: Re: (orb) what's unfriendly about this list?

I am pretty new to this list so it's hard for me to say alot on this subject; however, I think the orginal post about the problem was more talking about the lack of answering questions and the attitude that stupid questions are stupid and don't need any attention. I know my first post to this list was a pretty easy question for any long time orb collector and I didn't get ONE respounce back. It kinda made me feel like new comers with stupid questions are not wanted, which is what I think woadspiral was kinda getting at.

I think that most tracks are very good, but they do suit each other. I think that it's very bad that Cydonia wasn't released in 1999 as v2.0. The actual version can be split in 2 parts: first 4 tracks and Terminus with Andy's touch - very nice, sounds like Orblivion. 2nd part: new tracks from new version of Mile Long Lump of Lard till Thursday's Keeper (of course I've got 13 tracks version :-( ). And for me it sounds like I'm listening to 2 other albums on one CD. New tracks has one thing very bad: doesn't sound like Orb!!! They sound like any trip-hop band. But don't get me wrong - they are very good, but they just don't suit. And all three interludes sucks, they are awful and useless. (I mean Egnable, Firestar and 1,1,1) Sad, very sad... BTW.

Date: 02 Mar 2001 10:57:16 -0000 Eil, HMV and Amazon only seem to be selling the 2 x 12" version. I'd guess this is a limited release [whether the packaging says so or not] and they'll go back to selling the normal 1 record when stocks run out. I only shop at these online for records/cd's etc and really Eil is second hand more so than new stuff [but strangely, they do sell the odd bit of new stuff ]. I can't really think of any other online UK based shops - over to anyone else? If you go to shopsmart.co.uk and then type in Cydonia - it comes up with the CD. If you then do "compare prices" it lists all the online shops that ship it. Without spending ages on the net doing this, I don't know of the 10 or so shops listed, which stock the vinyl - I'll leave that to someone else. A word of caution. I've used CDwow before - I'm not impressed. Cracked cases, odd shipping [UK based, but ship from Hong Kong] arrived at different times despite being all in stock at the same time, cd's and cases **look** like cheap copies but don't seem to be. To their credit, they are the cheapest and they don't charge shipping BUT when they posted my 7 [from an order of 12] replacement cases, 3 of THEM were cracked AND I had to pay excess postage on ALL 3 PACKAGES.

Yeah, but they do seem kind of samey; between the other sets online, the DJ-set tour, Breezeblock, etc, there are a lot of the same tracks/samples/etc reused over and over...of course, I haven't gotten into the last two (1/25 and 2/8) Groovetech ones yet, so maybe they are different.

Eil.com carries the 2lp for 19.99 quid (not including shipping), but also usually has all four Once More 12"s (three "promo" and one regular UK) if you want to save on shipping. I ordered the Special Edition CD from them for 12 quid (including shipping) or about $18 which also seems to be about the best deal around. Does anyone have the single LP, and does it have EDM?

Date: 03 Mar 2001 22:44:35 -0800 Hi all, while driving home from work a few days ago, I was behind a van that had a bumper sticker on it that said "SAVE THE SONOMA COAST". The interesting thing about it, though, was that it also had the same exact symbol that is found on the inside of the Live 93 sleeve (kind of a weird, spiral thing... hard to describe) on it. I'll have to check, but I think that this sybol is also on a couple of the other Orb releases as well. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but does this symbol represent something? I instantly recognized it as being the same, as I have looked at that design many times while listening to Live 93. Any info would be great, as I am very curious about this.

Date: 04 Mar 2001 12:16:59 -0000 Hi, Just a quick question: There was a recent post about some of the BadOrb releases being made available at the recent upcoming tour. Is it worth not buying via BadOrb.com the initial releases and waiting to buy at the tour (assuming they don't sell out before I get there!), or buying the initial lot online? I've just received my ticket for the London Astoria gig in April. That's 3 gigs in 3 days - Laurent Garnier/A Guy Called Gerald at the Astoria on 3rd, A Guy Called Gerald at the ICA on the 4th, and The Orb on the 5th - maybe I should take the week off!! l8rs, Nick King ;-) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: john bennett Subject: (orb) strange days a happenin,gimme shirts of orb variety...please,thanks Date: 04 Mar 2001 12:40:28 +0000 hey there orbish peoples of the widening web, i need orb t-shirts (small-medium) that glow in uv if pos. i tried putting a plain shirt in my local high street photocopier, but before i could get my finish artical(and my orb cd sleeve) this weird man came up to me and started waving his hands nd saying things at such a level i was forced to leave due to bad vibes. maybe he's reading this mail?(if you are you know who you are,yeeh just watch out you!......Alright.....nnaaa love ya really, just give me me sleeve back) i have money for this venture,and a body to put the shirt on and eyes to see the shirt ect... ect...(or maybe i am just text,hhmm) (im going to stop typing in sec) chaaaars me deeeaars. keep smiling!!!!!!!! # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: CD Rich Subject: Ralf (was Re: (orb) re: cd prices suck) Date: 04 Mar 2001 08:08:15 -0500 On Fri, 2 Mar 2001 01:53:11 EST ALLENST@aol.com writes: > As for Cydonia, the newly added tracks haven't grown on me and I lament the > passing of my fav tune Ralf.

In all the discussions I remember reading about Cydonia v1, not ONCE was Ralf mentioned. To me, the distorted laughs and shifting melody were pure Orb. That's the one track that I have copied onto compilation CDRs to listen to in the car. Ah well, there's no accounting for taste.

Ouch, 312 emails waiting when we got it back. Here's the LA TImes (2/25) review of Cydonia: Orb mastermind Dr. Alex Paterson got his start in the U.K. electronic scene by uniting techno with progressive avant-garde music. On the Orb's fifth full-length album (due Tuesday), Paterson's verison of Frankenstein's monster is fully realized in the form of a conceptual techno album about the life of primordial Martians (the album's title comes from the name of the mythical city on ancient Mars). While the disc is, in many respects, every bit as out there as the notion suggests, "Cydonia" is also a fascinating musical collection that weaves from warm pop to trip-hop to heavy techno to circus sounds accompanied by David Lynchian spoken interludes. Paterson wisely welcomes listeners into his opus with the warmest track, "Once More." Kicking off with a playful synth sound reminiscent of Yaz's [Yazoo] 80's hit "Only You" and featuring gorgeous vocals by Japanese singer Aki, the song would make anyone sign up for a trip to Cydonia. Lest they get too comforable on their visit though, the album quickly shifts into "Promis" an instrumental that weds techno blips and bleeps with Celtic undertones. An ambitious work, "Cydonia" is not intended for all audiences. However, those fascinated by the thin line between genius and insanity should find a lot to ponder. -By Steve Baltin Hope that vinyl I ordered isn't sold out yet.

Well, given that all of the shows are before the first "official" pressing date, they'll probably have mock-ups or white labels "available", which I assume means for viewing, although they could certainly do a brisk trade in white labels if they wanted to flog them.

LONG time Orb fan. Just to share my first Orb experience: Was back in college in OH (1991) driving to a DJ gig in Columbus and was listening to the alternative station coming out of OSU. Heard (of course) Little Fluffy Clouds and was immediately hooked. Literally RAN to the local alternative record shop the next morning and found the double CD UK version of the first album. I was too psyched. Been a fan ever since. I am a HUGE live music freak and have been looking for more live Orb ever since the Live '93 came out. I'd like to get a collection together, however, I've nothing to trade (as far as The Orb goes). Would any kind soul(s) out there mind a couple b&p's for a newbie like myself? I'd be forever grateful and would hopefully return the favor in the near future. Please get in touch off list if you'd like to help out. Many thanks.

And, though I've liked them in the past, this one puts it over the top. Why? For one, there are two songs, including the lovely 'Once More,' sung by Japanese vocalist Aki, and the equally lovely 'Ghostdancing,' by Nina Walsh. Structurally, it follows the pattern established by their last long-player, "Orblivion." That is, more and shorter tracks, 13 of them to be precise. These are woven into a kind of epic as if set in the title location, a mythical city on Mars. In which the aural cityscape includes sweeping chugga-chugga sounds, vast rolling fields of dub, blips and blops, snatches of radio voices -- comedy sketches, bizarre commercials -- as if wafting from open windows. If this is chill-out music, why does it command such invigorated, specific attention? If it's a druggy, trancey blur, why is it so clear and impeccably constructed?

Sans floating pig, the Orb will return to America next month for their first Stateside performances in four years. The Orb, fronted since their 1988 inception by the eccentric Alex Paterson, have staked a claim as one of electronic music's most accomplished live acts, a reputation birthed from legendary early-'90s shows that took the vibe of ambient "chill-out" rooms of raves and clubs and transformed it into an all-encompassing sensory experience. Some events even featured a giant porcine creature floating over the audience in an ode to Pink Floyd performances of yore. "We can morph into four or five different bands between us." — The Orb's Alex Paterson Starting April 12 in the northern Miami suburb of Boynton Beach, Florida, the Orb will play 12 dates in support of their latest album, Cydonia, which was released February 27. Paterson said in a recent interview that he will be joined on the tour by longtime Orb family members Simon Philips, Witchman (born John Roome) and Fil LeGonidec, a former Killing Joke member who also records as Autolump with partner Pantoes Relax. "We can morph into four or five different bands between us," Paterson explained, referring to the myriad side projects he's worked on over the years. "We can be the Orb, Witchman can be Witchman, Witchman and me can be Multiverse, me and Simon can be Prayer Box, and Fil, our roadie, can also be Autolump." As always, the upcoming Orb shows promise to be out of the ordinary. "The intention is we can play a couple of sets before the Orb comes on," Paterson said, "and play newer material that no one's ever heard." He hinted that a few songs from the next Orb album, recorded in the last six months, will likely be sprinkled in among the sets. (Cydonia was completed two years before its release, but was delayed due to record-label mergers.) The shows will be a promotional double-whammy for Paterson, who will be releasing the first three singles on his innovative new Internet label, Bad Orb, on March 25, including an Autolump 12-inch. Each month the label (www.badorb.com) will present three new singles, which will be pressed according to how many orders are made for each, and then deleted. The other artists releasing tracks March 25 are Ayumi Hamasaki and S.E. Berlin, an alias of the German techno duo Sun Electric.

Not sure about price, though, since it's not listed at TicketDisaster. I'd keep an eye on the Metro's site (http://www.metrochicago.com/). They should have the info up soon.

Orb Cydonia (MCA) Orb's massive international success in the early '90s signaled the arrival of so-called "ambient techno," but those who thought its influence stopped at post-drugs-and-debauchery chill-out rooms only had half the story. Orb was more akin to a Bloody Mary, an easily digestible mix that enabled the debauchery (and different drugs) to continue even after the sun came up. Combined with its trademark light show, Orb's music became the underground's answer to Pink Floyd (cleverly referenced on the cover of its Live '93 disc), proving that under the right conditions, it is possible to listen to a light show. While the group's earlier efforts mined psychedelic music and trippy dub for much of their inspiration, incorporating soundbites and environmental noise to impressive effect, Orb subtly altered its sound throughout the past decade. Cydonia, recorded more than two years ago but trapped in major-label limbo while corporations sorted out and consolidated their various holdings, finally arrives with the band's eccentric identity intact. One of Orb's most interesting qualities is its timelessness: The music looks backward as much as forward, so each of Orb's many and varied works manages, despite the passage of clubland trends, to sound contemporary. Cydonia's dreamy soundscapes are slightly more focused than in the past, with singers Aki Omari and Nina Walsh giving "Once More" and "Ghostdancing" an accessible trip-hop feel. Since-departed engineer Andy Hughes proves a perfect foil for Orb mainstay and mastermind Alex Paterson, juggling the music's disparate elements so dexterously that it sounds far more relaxed and spare than it really is. Aggressive, guitar-laden tracks such as "A Mile Long Lump Of Lard" go down easy, though Paterson keeps the maxim of one-time colleague Brian Eno in mind by keeping the music menacing. Cydonia, like much of Orb's output, shows a dual inclination toward ambient backgrounds and melodic, Massive Attack-style foregrounds--a tendency no doubt encouraged by its additional collaborators, who range from a host of engineers to old friend Robert Fripp. However, considering how few electronic acts have translated the indulgences of studio tomfoolery into consistently great records, it's reassuring that Orb has weathered its unplanned hiatus and released another winner. --Joshua Klein _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

LONG time Orb fan. Just to share my first Orb experience: Was back in college in OH (1991) driving to a DJ gig in Columbus and was listening to the alternative station coming out of OSU. Heard (of course) Little Fluffy Clouds and was immediately hooked. Literally RAN to the local alternative record shop the next morning and found the double CD UK version of the first album. I was too psyched. Been a fan ever since. I am a HUGE live music freak and have been looking for more live Orb ever since the Live '93 came out. I'd like to get a collection together, however, I've nothing to trade (as far as The Orb goes). Would any kind soul(s) out there mind a couple b&p's for a newbie like myself? I'd be forever grateful and would hopefully return the favor in the near future. Please get in touch off list if you'd like to help out. Many thanks.

I am planning on taping every one of these shows myself and am looking for help in the form of directions/ ticket purchases/ a place to crash. I'll be coming from Chicago, so if anyone in the Atlanta area can hook me up with a place to stay I could offer round trip transport to the 2 FL gigs too. And if there's anybody in Detroit (Andrew?) who could do the same I can get you to the Toronto show as well. Other shows? It depends, but I could at least provide travel one way, if you're on the route. I am looking for hookups in Tampa, Atlanta, Washington, Boston, & Lawrence. Other cities would be a plus. This is a hell of a lot of driving and is something I've wanted to do for a few years now. I will als offer a copy of the show to anybody who can get me a ticket or a place to stay. As of yet I have no tickets for these shows. Any and all help is appreciated.

Date: 10 Mar 2001 15:39:34 +0900 Yeah, lyrics... probably not what you think though. http://www.wombat.zaq.ne.jp/auaen906/cydonia_insert1.jpg http://www.wombat.zaq.ne.jp/auaen906/cydonia_insert2.jpg I'm living in Japan for the next few years, and as any true blue Orb fan I had to get the latest Orb album. So where can I go to buy the CD? The HMV in nearby Kawanishi of course! Anyway, they had the 13 track Cydonia (looked like a UK import) and Once More single on display in latest releases, as well as at a listening station, though unfortunately the player was broken. Luckily, I had a look at the regular shelves and saw they had the Japanese release too (14 track version, international label but with Japanese spine cover thing and insert, pictures of which are above) So, I picked it up for the bargain price of 2500 yen (about $24 US) Yikes! I picked up Mouse on Mars' Instrumentals too, for good measure. Anyway, the insert has lyrics only for those two songs, I guess they thought that Nina's singing was kinda unintelligible... =) Overall, I like the album though a lot of the songs feel a little too ornamented... that is, a little busy with bells and whistles. Maybe I'm just too used to the ol' Cydonia v1 that I made a few months ago. I do really like Centuries though, I'd buy a single of that though I'm not too interested in the Once More single - especially since it's a little bare. BTW, I hope The Orb makes it to Japan. I'm kinda bummed that I'll miss them next month when they make it to my hometown of San Francisco... - Bobby-chan # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Chain Reaction Subject: RE: (orb) thursdayteatime-22-2-1.rm Date: 10 Mar 2001 04:55:08 -0500 (EST) Dear All! >Is some kind soul going to convert this one to MP3 similar to the other Groovetech shows?

I'm trying to convert the Orb MPEGs from the ftp site onto a CD as a VCD. I'm using Adaptec Toast on an iMac, and it requires using another program called M. Pack to make the MPEGs "Toast-Ready." Unfortunately, Apple bought the rights to M. Pack and for some reason, never made it available (prolly cause it was competition with their new iDVD package) Furthermore, Adaptec never offered a fix to this problem, leaving Mac users incapable of authoring VCDs. I am wondering if there is anyone on the list with MPEG compression software that will resolve this problem for me. I know that besides M. Pack, there are three other programs that will do the "Toast-Ready" feature: Media Cleaner, MegaPeg, and Mpeg Power Pro. However, I don't want to spend the 300-500 dollars that these programs cost just to make one VCD. I have AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ, and irc. I have a little web storage space. I am willing to transfer files any way possible. I can send you the Mpegs for you to convert, or you can send me the software. I'm sorry for the Long Non-Orb related post, but I am desperate. Please reply to me off list, and thanks for any help offered. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: =?iso-8859-1?q?Christoph=20Kluxen?= Subject: (orb) it`s a shame Date: 10 Mar 2001 20:09:40 +0100 (CET) Aloha, heard a track today from Marc et Claude named Loving You, using the Song from Mrs.Ripperton, it``s fucking Mayday Trance, what a shame !!!! What I think about Cydonia? First of all its wonderful, it``s Ultraworld, Pomme Fritz, OT and a perfect combination between the orb and the nice vocals, I think Plum Island is really the best example for that. Nina Walsh has a beautiful voice, from which group is she coming? Hamlet of Kings and of course Terminus are my favourite songs, the play of Guy Pratt in Hamlet reminds me very much at the way Deep Dive Coorporation does it, that melodycharacter in it, perhaps that did inspire them, but perhaps they are just inspired by themselves. Egnable is the way they did at Pomme Fritz, I hope they``ll find the whole tape from the lost FFWD Session sometimes. Besides the mix of A mile long of Lard has turned down and gives the song real quality comparing to the cydonia V 1.0. EDM is the strongest track I think, mixed that with Two Lone Swordsmen - Tiny Reminders (neuflex), gave a good break, I think that track is done especially for DJ``s, why else should they just bring it out on vinyl? O.K. I don`t like Thursday``s Keeper too much and the end of Hamlet, the song has no real end,that``s a shame I think, they just turned it down. I mean the orb is perfect, and perfect music needs a perfect end. Perhaps they hadn`t enough time??? Enough of critics, I love it !!!!!!!!! Sometimes it nerves that some people in this list talk bad about other music, for example trance and Techno, the most stuff I don``t like, too, but there is a lot of interesting, freaky and flowing stuff U can find, if U take perhaps Sven Väth there is no compare to the orb, but as the orb it``s an individual way to give electronic music a soul. I respect that and do not compare that with that, cause it`s something else. If U don``t know about it, don``t talk about it!!! Some stuff to convince: Earth-Emotions (Free Form) www.freeform.de Outernational Spacelords (Ambient Diary 3,Dub Backups 3,Elektrolux) Daze Maxim " Mathematical breakfast" 12" Headroom - "Distant" (Planet rythm) X-Dream/Cybersnack e.p. Spectral-Diffuse (Blue Room) Some good labels: Qube Blue Room Pocket Spirit Zone and so on and so on.... P.S.Do anyone know a very electronic Big-Beat-Dub remix of a Bill Laswell- Track on 12"? Heard that in a DJ- Set and there is really a compare to Blue Room (the orb), it``s using a sample from Terence Mc Kenna perhaps, the DJ``s first LP they ever had was UF.Orb. Badorb is a watering place in Germany, all that places begin with Bad. Enough for now, CY, Christoph from Germany __________________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I'm from Milwaukee, and will be attending both the Detroit and Chicago shows. Not quite the massive road trip Gavin was talking about the other day (I'm jealous!), but nevertheless something I wished I'd done on the last tour. If only there were a Twin Cities date, or Cleveland or whatever, I'd see one or two more (can't quite swing the Canada shows). Two should be fun, though. Speaking of which... I'll probably reiterate this request as the actual show approaches, but if anyone in the Detroit area cares to recommend any record shops, after-bars, restaurants, etc... any pointers (especially record shops) will be appreciated as it'll be the first time in the Motor City for my co-travelers and I. Still got my fingers crossed hoping that they'll announce Sun Electric and/or DJ Lewis as additional support, but will be perfectly happy with Autolump and Prayerbox, too...

Definitely worth the wait! Sounds soooo much better than the mp3s I've been living off of since last year. Here's what I think of the new tracks, since I'm sure v1 tracks have been discussed ad naseum, new version of MLLOL sounds awesome though! alex cleaned it up and streamlined into a nice fucked up goove, definitely tasty. I like the interludes, gotta have jokes on an orb album, Firestar is prime orb not taking itself seriously, and Egnable is some whacked out shit, classic! Centuries, no disrepect to anyone who likes this song, but its kind of pissing me off, I totally agree with those of you that think Ralf kicks ass, and I think Cydonia would be a much stronger album with if it were at this position in the album and centuries remained in the unreleased bin, but hey thats just my opinion. Plum Island that dub bassline hits me and I know its all gonna be OK Hamlet of Kings, yes!yes! this song is fucking great! Thursdays Keeper, I like this track a lot and I was stoked to find out it was a new Orb track because its my favorite part of the Betalounge set! Definitely not typical orb, but a seriously dark and funky track Terminus is the real beauty of the batch of course, it sounds like a lost track from Orbus Terrarum, memories of drifting on oceans of possibilities... My housmate tells me that Soddy Shearwater (vocal sample at the beginning of terminus) is a type of seabird.

I saw S.E. when they opened for the Orb on the Cydonia tour, but being a relative newbie, I didn't realize who they were until I was informed by a list member after the show. Since then I've filled in my S.E. collection. I would love to see them now that I'm familiar with their music. > Also eagerly anticipating the initial reports/reviews from listmembers about the UK shows... Ditto. By the time I saw them last time they were here, I already knew the set list, thanks to show reviews on the list.

The Orb - Cydonia (MCA) For those unfamiliar with the ambient/house/dance kaleidoscope that is The Orb (aka "Dr." Alex Paterson), this isn't the place to start your journey (try the more acessible, best of disc "U.F. Off"). For Orbheads, though, this is another mind-blowing chill-out classic. Abstract yet disciplined, electronic but with heart, nobody mixes sounds of earth and deep space like Dr. Paterson and crew. Now bring on the remixes! Grade: A (William Nakaskima/Special to the Register) Still listening to the burned MP3's. My package of vinyl + cd should arrive from the UK by Tuesday.

I remember seeing that somebody will be coming from Chicago to see the Orb in Detroit. I have an old music dealer buddy (specializes in boot videos) who lives an hour north of Kalamazoo who can't drive. He's willing to make it worth your while if you can give him a ride to and from the gig. Here's a quote from the email he wrote me: I'm almost a full hour north of Kalamazoo from I-94 (straight up 131 but to the south of Grand Rapids), if you know anybody going to it I'd pay for their ticket & give good gas money If anybody in this area would consider giving him a ride, contact me and I'll send you his email address. He usually responds within 15 minutes of your initial message. He also has a huge list of videos availabe to buy (including Orb), so if you want, you can email him just to request a copy to see if there's anything you'd like to get.

So...I am making my usual shout out to So-Cal listees - let's meet up!! I greatly enjoyed meeting a lot of you during Alex's November stops down here, and I know there are more of you that didn't show up!! Please contact me privately about meeting details as I've already started arrangements with a few of you. Also, it seems that every room within a 20 mile radius of the festival is booked. Did anyone have the forethought to book extra rooms?? Anyone? Know of a vacation home out in oldsville that's unoccupied? :-0 I have to at least throw it out there before I take drastic measures.

I am going to go from a US perspective on this, let me know if you need a different one. 12inch domestic is from 6-8$, import 12inch is from 9-11$ Single lp is from $11-17, and a doulbe or triple vinyl is from $15-$25.

Shitty "stereo system" turntables - cost about $200 and look like they'll skip if you breathe on them wrong... 2. Ridiculously expensive "audiophile" turntables, upwards of $500... 3. DJ turntables. I opted for a low-end Numark turntable, from the local Guitar Center, for about $100.

It has to do with the karaoke aspect of the machine, you can basically adjust the pitch of any CD, and it also can block the vocals (well do its best to block the vocals) of a song.

Ever taken a trip with the Orb? There's nothing with the blinky-eyed optimism of their early work here. It's far from the cosmic genius of UFOrb, say. Instead we have to settle for a long and strange journey from the dubbed out karma of Ghost Dancing through the thcik and stodgy metal dirge of A Mile Long Lump of Lard with a little schizo ragga'n'bass psychedelia in EDM taken in along the way. With Cydonia, the cost of admission is your mind. Still wanna take a trip? Thought not Well, it got only two points, so i guess that's not much. I must say that A mile... is one of the best tracks.

I just finally caught up with reading all my email that came while I was gone. I picked up the UK version of Cydonia on the 26th (for once I was in the right country at the right time). I didn't even know there was no EDM on the US/Canaidan versions until I got back, so it's a good thing I picked it up there (not that I would have waited anyway). I must say, I think it's a damn fine recording. I really like Turn It Down and Plum Island. But the songs all rock. Met the Aphex Twin and Cylob while I was over there too. Plus saw some kick-ass scenery in Bournemouth. I'm going back. I'm not 100% sure I can afford it yet, but I hope to head to San Francisco and maybe Coachella since the Orb seem to have forgotten all about Vancouver. It's been 6 YEARS!!!! Oh well. How are the ticket sales going? How much of a drive is the Coachella festival from San Francisco anyways?

You need that in order to cue up to a beat and throw the track in a predictable manner. The cheapest DJ CD player is probably a Gemini CD-110. One of their dual players is probably more bang for the buck if you need two. Of course, you'll most likely be a lot happier in the long run with a Denon or Pioneer if you really want to mix. -Steve -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Steve Shah (sshah@planetoid.org) | SysAdmin/Coder/Gabbernaut/DJ/Writer/Minister http://www.planetoid.org | We're not dropping out, we're infiltrating. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Life is best measured in beats per minute.

There shouldn't be static...but as I recall this disc was pressed by PDO during the "bad" period, so it is probably bronzing, which shows up as ever-increasing static over the course of the disc, and over the course of years. To be sure, look at the center of the CD, and see if it says "Pressed in the UK by PDO.", and see if you can see a variable icky orangish-brown color in the silvery areas on the back (label) side of the disc. If you can, the disc is screwed. PDO might replace it, or you might try to return it where you bought it (since it is "damaged"). As a consumer, I've grown very wary of discs from certain artists from the UK in the early nineties; and have to ask very pointed questions before buying, as many people don't know about the problem, or are deliberately trying to get rid of damaged goods without disclosing the problem. Unfortunately, some of my favorite artists were pretty much exclusively pressed by PDO in the UK... :( Thankfully, there aren't too many Orb-related discs that are affected; the primary ones being the Give Peace A Dance compilations. The fact that they *are* affected is a real bitch, since they are chock-full of exclusive or extremely hard-to-find tracks. Chris np: Blue Pearl - Blue Pearl (also pressed by PDO, but in the US) ;) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Matt.Skinner@skanska.co.uk Subject: RE: (orb) Universal Music UK New Policy ?

Date: 20 Mar 2001 14:12:45 -0500 Hey, sorry for this somewhat-off-topic post, but I came across a duplicate copy of The Dread Zone's "360 degrees" cd. I'm *planning* to post it on eBay later today or tomorrow, unless someone wants to trade for any of the following: Irresistible Force--Global Chillage Banco de Gaia--Maya (or the new album--don't know its name) For those who don't know, The Dread Zone is an offshoot of Big Audio Dynamite, and their album 360 Degrees is SERIOUSLY cool ambient dub--in fact, it's one of my favorite cds of all time. The credits cite The Orb, FSOL, Mixmaster Morris, and Aphex Twin as influence.... This cd is out of print. Not a single bad track, either! I *also* have a few copies of an ambient mix called "Radical Beauty," mixed by Nick Philip. It has tracks by Vicious Circle, Journeyman, Skylab, Mixmaster Morris, Daniel Pemberton, PFM, Seeba & Lotek, Jonah Sharp, and T-Power. I have a few unopened copies of this (don't ask--no, I didn't steal them). There is an audio cd, and a cd rom as well. I'll post with the item numbers tomorrow. Later!

I don't know; I'm sure someone does... I have a somewhat-related question...it seems that all of the Groovtech shows are 3 hours long. Yet the mp3 for the first one is only a little over 2 hours long, and cuts off rather abruptly. Is the original RealAudio file 3 hours long, or is this show truncated for some reason? Also, are there going to be any more shows, or are the 4 existing ones it?

Date: 22 Mar 2001 16:19:49 +0100 From Ross, a friend : Hi J.C., I discovered something that might be interesting to the Orb list--would you mind forwarding it? I have been enjoying the U.S. release of 'Cydonia,' but wanted to get the missing track, so purchased the UK version via amazon.co.uk. To my surprise, the sound is quite different--much worse--on the UK version. It sounds like the two issues were mastered quite differently. By way of background, I have an 'audiophile' stereo that can reveal otherwise unnoticed differences in recordings (Mark Levinson CD and amp, Thiel speakers). I found the US release to have much better 'ambience' (important for the Orb!), deeper and tighter bass (ditto), and a smoother and more extended high-end. In comparison, the UK release sounds muffled and muddy. I wonder whether anyone on the list has heard this, and also whether Smiley can track down the mastering information, since I can't find it on the CD credits.

Sweet! I picked up my tickets on Friday night. It has been a loooooong time since I have been to the show at the Gothic. I think the last show I saw there was Sonic Youth or "Check Your Head"-era Beasties Boys. I saw Ministry during the "Mind Is..." tour and I lost count how many times I have seen Pigface there (my favorite being when Silverfish opened). I spent a good part of my early twenties in that venue. It will be nice to see my favorite band in my favorite venue! See you all there. Chances are I will probably be wearing my Pork Recordings shirt that night. So keep an eye out for me, all of you.

This is the "official" tracklisting for the BadOrb promo; as posted by Nico Baars: TRACKLISTING: - LFC - Detour Mix - Once More - Bedrock Mix - Centuries - Eurofen Mix - NY Connection - Once More - Shem - Lost Woods of Timber - I'm Alright - Keith Hudson DB remix - S.E. Berlin - Sissy - Lovin You - Multiverse Puffin in Paradise Pretty much the same; note that it even has the same mis-identification of the S.E.Berlin track (it is Shuttle, not Sissy). Anyway, it is on at least one of the FTP's, encoded from one of the promo CDs sent out; it should be fairly easy to check if it is exactly the same mix, or a new one with the same tracks. I rather suspect that it probably is exactly the same, but would be pleasntly surprised to be found wrong. :) Chris > > > Subject: RE: (orb) Orb remixes on XFM at 3.00 GMT > > > > > > Did, anyone else get to here this?

I had thought this was a rare hard to find peice of wax that alot of dj's searched long and hard to get. It was released on RAS in 89, but the store had like 6 brand new copies, so I guess they are repressing it. Recognised lots of samples, some used on just remix or live stuff by the orb. Well no matter what I am glad I got it, it has lots of nice samples at the beggining of the tracks, and all in all some of the best roots dub I have gotten to buy in a long time. take care all. jahsh # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: mhlady Subject: (orb) (new?)

Finally got my tickets to the Toronto date on 4/22. Anybody else gonna be there? Here's a question: what's the best way to approach Alex et al. after a show? The usual acts I go to are small local ones where the performers usually enter the crowd after their set to chat it up. Does Alex do this? I think it's be great to meet the man behind the music I've been listening to for over 8 years! On another note, The last "big" show I was at was Bjork during the Homogenic tour (ok ok it's been a while) and she was like surrounded by 10 000 securtiy guards. All these screaming fans were thrusting collectibles to be signed at her, which she politely took from them and placed them on the stage out of their reach forever!

Absolutely hilarious. :-) I *want* to say that it's from the movie _Galaxy Quest_, but I think I'm way off base.... Was it from the t.v. show _Futurama_ perhaps? Or _The Lone Gunmen_?

Hmmmmm....that might present a problem. The police up here have been cracking down on "raves" (which they take to mean any event with electronic music) after discovering that *gasp* people were actually having a good time and not hurting anybody (can't have that!) As a result, there's been a big increase in the amount of "security" (well, guys wearing shirts that say "security", anyway) to prevent this kind of thing, especially at the venue the Orb is at....

I'm still trying to nail down a few dates and tickets to the upcoming Orb tour. I will be leaving for Florida on the 10th of April. Anybody who wants to put a face with my name can go here: http://www.mindspring.com/~orbaddict/me.htm I have all the Orb's US tourdates listed that I'm planning on attending and their status. Yes, I will be taping these shows and will offer a copy of any show(s) in exchange for tickets. If you see me at the gigs, feel free to say hi, just not when the Orb, Autolump or Prayerbox are on stage. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

There almost certainly are differences inherent with the two methods of playback. There almost certainly are differences inherent in the personality or 'sound' of the specific pieces of equipment I use. end caveats The US CD is intesely layered with all manner of sparkly bits going off here & there. It is impressive & very fun. The vinyl on the other hand seems almost imperfect - almost a little sealed or shut down, *but* it has a warm human feeling that I don't get from the CD at all. Once more is a great example becase of the actual human voice. It is pretty on the CD but tender on vinyl. On vinyl, 'Centuries' has not just a rythym track - it sounds like there might really be hands playing the drums. The whole thing feels more intesely emotional on vinyl. Has anybody else had a similar or different experience? Has anybody copared the US vinyl to the UK? Is there US vinyl? Argh!! Now I really want a vinyl orbus terrarum! -e. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Ovation15@aol.com Subject: Re: (orb) Cydonia on UK vinyl Date: 31 Mar 2001 04:47:41 EST i dont think there is a US vinyl and i have a feeling there will not be any orb vinyl released in US around cydonia gemini In a message dated Sat, 31 Mar 2001 2:25:05 AM Eastern Standard Time, "Eben Sorkin" writes: << I have been listening to Cydonia on UK vinyl record compared to the US CD edition & I have to say it's a really different experience! start caveats Unfortunately I don't have a UK CD or a US Vinyl to make the whole coparison thing complete.
