Date: 01 Apr 1998 10:55:40 -0500 Out of curiosity.... What's with the constant use of the word, "trainspotter"? I do not understand what this means. I saw a Scottish movie last year by the same name (simultaneously hilarious and depressing-- I especially liked the scene where the guy throws the bottle of beer or the glass or whatever over the rail, and it hits some chick in the face). Also, per Douglas Coupland, there is a subculture in England which actually watches for trains (much like, he writes, there are those in the U.S. and Canada who frequent funerals and graveyards, a la _Harold and Maude_). Whatever. Anyway, I'm not sure of the significance. Oh, and what, exactly, does "phat" mean? I have an IDEA, but...I don't watch MTV anymore (haven't for 15 years)...I'm still living in the mid 1980s.... Sorry, they're just two words I've seen used a million times on the list, and I, well, don't comprehend. Later!

Are you not familiar with the book of Revelations of St. John, the final book of the bible prophesying the Apocalypse? They forced everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead so that no one shall be able to buy or sell unless he has the mark which is the name of the beast or the number of his name and the number of the beast is six six six. What can such specific prophecy mean? What is the mark? But the mark is the bar code, the ubiquitous bar code that you'll find on every bundle and every packet of Johnny's methapoxy pot pie and every bar code is divided into two parts by three markers and those three markers are always represented by the number six six six six. And what does it say? No one shall be able to buy or sell without that mark. And now what they're planning to do in order to eradicate all credit card fraud and in order to precipitate a totally cashlees society - what they're planning to do what they've already tested on the American troops - they're gonna subcutaneously laser tattoo a mark onto your right hand or onto your forehead and they're gonna replace plastic with FLESH. FACT. In the same book of Revelations when the seventh seal's been broken open on the day of judgement and the seven angels blow their trumpets and the third angel blows her bugle, wormwood will fall from the sky, wormwood will poison a third part of all the waters and a third part of all the land and many many many people will die. Now do you know what the Russian translation for wormwood is? Chernobyl. FACT. And August the 18th, 1999 the planets of our solar system are gonna line up into the shape of the cross. They're gonna line up into fixed signs of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus and Scorpio. It's just happened. This one's the fourth beast of the apocalypse as mentioned in the book of Daniel. And you've all FACT. Do you think that the amoeba ever dreamed that it would evolve into the frog? And when that first frog shimmied out of the water and employed its vocal chords in order to attract a mate or to deter a predator, do you think that frog ever imagined that, that insipid frog would evolve into all the languages of the world, into all the literature of the world? And just as that froggy could've never possibly have conceived of Shakespeare so we can never possibly imagine our destiny. If you take the whole of time represented by one year, but only in the first few moments of the first of January, there's a long way to go. Only now we're not gonna sprout extra limbs and wings and things because evolution itself is evolving. When it comes the Apocalypse itself will be part of the process of that leap of evolution. By the very definition of apocalypse mankind will cease to exist, at least in a material form. Will it evolve into something that transcends matter, into a species of pure thought? Are you with me?. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Pedram Subject: Re: (orb) Trainspotter.

I think "phat" is an ebonic spelling of "fat", which is an adjective that : 1) describes the physical size of something: "I got phat pockets yo!" == I have big pockets == I have lots of money OR 2) is a positive qualitative assessment: "doze be phat wheelz!" == that's a great car!

The story could have been at any time and it wouldn't have changed all that much. At least Adam is a pretty funny guy. I didn't care much for the sound track either. I ended up returning it and getting the new Madonna CD. For those of you who can deal with a bit of commercialized electronica, it's a pretty good album. The tracks really needed to be longer though -- but then they wouldn't be radio friendly... Ambient noise between the tracks would have made it better too. I guess thats just my bias after listening to the production excellence of The Orb. =) -Steve -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Steve Shah (sshah@cs.ucr.edu) | SysAdmin/Coder/Gabbernaut/DJ/Writer/Minister http://www.cs.ucr.edu/~sshah | We're not dropping out, we're infiltrating. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life is best measured in beats per minute.

Date: 01 Apr 1998 20:45:24 EST Hello, In the DJ world, a "trainspotter" is someone who is constantly looking to see what record you're spinning. DJ's take great pride in obtaining the rare grooves..and many times don't want their secrets let out. I guess a lot of it comes with egos. But when you spend days digging in the crates for rare grooves, you don't want lazy suckas stealing your beats. And to the guy who thought "phat" was the "ebonic" spelling of "fat," you're tripping. It has nothing to do with ebonics. It's just a form slang that stems from the hip hop culture. Just like I'm sure that back in your days you used the hip slang for that era. For example: "This grass sure makes me feel groovey." Or...."Cool it daddy O." So please refrain from mocking a form of slang you don't use, or don't understand. Thanks...

(think live 93's LFC intro?!?!?) *'hem* I think they *are* spreading the gospel. Just not Christian gospel. See, there is for certain a theological bent to Orb's music, and the theme of transformation out of the physical world and/or existence of worlds in/around this one occurs multiple times (cf. o.o.b.e [noosphere, the world of objective contents of thought], Earth (Gaia) [that lovely piece about drinking wine of vineyards]). Ryan continues: > the orb has helped cure me of some really nasty dogma i'd had in > my system... A similar experience for me. As I was leaving my Christian viewpoint (the Renunciation, I call it *laugh*), the Orb was one of many real world confirmations that I was making the right choice by externalizing in music and samples views that I was projecting. Some examples of Orb's gospel: The intro into Live '93s LFC is a wry raised eyebrow at the religion of Science -- turning a man into part-machine is a solution to the problem of inner pain. Ricky Lee Jones and the music of LFC is a more real way of inner healing, using inner joy, memories and music. As for S.A.L.T, it relates to 'millennial fever', and is an attack on the (largely American led) fifteen-minute trends and the sell-your-soul attitude as well as an allegory into the futility of Western society's rapacious materialistic lifestyle *whew*. Orb's characteristic cryptic responses to press requests fits into this as the telly/newspapers/magazines are the rallying cry for the continued sapping of the earth's resources. Albumwise, transformation/transmigration of this society is, effectively, the release of tension from S.A.L.T into Toxygene. LX is planting seeds of a spiritual rebellion, essentially . . . :) If you're at all eschatological in your spiritual viewpoint (I certainly am and I assume Mr. Patterson is), this kind of thing is very attractive. Meld with this Orb's listenability and danceability and you've got a tasty cocktail for the spirit (or entelechy, really, since body/emotion are a large part of the effect :). Rob, Interpreter and Reader-Into-Things P.S. If you're thinking of responding saying "How can you say what Alex & co. are intending?" I have a clever art-historian response to that, too.-r # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Rob Chauncey Subject: Re: (orb) SALT analysis Date: 02 Apr 1998 16:50:18 -0600 [Sorry to post twice, but Ryan was so quick on the uptake that I had to respond. Whereever necessary, you can substitute 'music' or 'orb's music' for 'art'] Ryan Platte wrote: > > hey, Rob, "How can you say what Alex & co. are intending?" > > clever is as clever does, is it not? Indeed. Well, it has to do with art. Each piece of art has three components: artist intention, audience response, and an elusive quality that is only of the art piece itself and is detached from the artist & audience. Now, as Frank Zappa put it, the most important part of art is the Frame: it is the part that says where the art piece ends and the real world begins. Once the artist "frames" his or her work, the intention of the artist ceases to be a factor in the art piece itself. Actually, it's *the* factor in the creation, but a piece changes in time after creation, and the intent of the artist isn't a motivator for that change. The only reason that artist intent would arise as a question would be from (you guessed it) audience curiosity (response). Now, since the art piece is framed, we have only two approaches. How you and I personally react to one piece of art is one (very valid) approach, but gets terribly complicated because of the varied sources of emotional responses that art provokes. The other is a sort of archaeological method -- look at the layers of what's going on, examine then in the context of the piece itself, examine the piece in its temporal context and to try and step between the artist and audience and see what motivates them to reach toward one another. With practice, the seeker may get a taste of the quality that is of the art piece alone, and then can self-righteously expound on what he or she thinks :) To concretize, let's take S.A.L.T. as an example: the context is in a fully-realized continuous album by an experienced ambient/techno band. However, the song itself is a departure from that band's typical style. It's a hint to look on the flip-side of what's common for them. Since Orb's usual subject matter is of paradise, celestial audio imagery and travelling, looking at the stagnant baser aspects of earth might be a good start. The piece itself? Temporal context? Well, look around us: we've got all this apocalyptic bullshit going on (ARMAGEDDON, coming soon to a theater near you), people are still consuming like it's the eighties, pollution, overpopulation, Paula Jones etc. etc. etc. That one's the easy part. Getting between Alex and Orb fans is a bit more of a mind-bender, though. There is something that separates Orb fans from those who are garden-variety techno-hounds -- we're looking for the purple and red and on fire, the bumping blue rooms and the ultraworld (well, beyond it, actually). If not conciously (or spiritually), then in musical taste. Alex happens to be a human being who is particularly talented at conveying that particular impulse through music, and therein lies the reach between artist and audience. If you look at the whole of these concepts, ideally while listening to the piece, well, you might come up with something similar to what I was babbling about in the last message. Accepting the music as a portent to spiritual transmigration, well, that's just me. I'm into that kind of thing *laugh* Peace, Rob # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: John_Robertson@cc.chiron.com Subject: (orb) RE : latest orb news...

(for the record, the pages are being worked on, and hopefully will be ready....sometime). it's organized by album, so if you can't find what you're looking for, check another directory. i was going to wait and tell people once the pages are updated, but i continue to be deluged by mail from people reporting problems with downloading mp3's from the oaa (although probably most of them aren't on the list) so i wanted to let people download stuff since it *is* available. a brief sidenote for people who weren't around when the orb audio archive actually existed; our goal through the site is providing rare/out-of-print orb songs in mp3 format for people to download and enjoy. (also, if you spot anything you don't think belongs there, please mail me and i will remove it) the server is hosted by an anonymous donator, who has given up several hundred megs of space. hopefully this will allow us to expand even further (if you have material that is not on the archive, and you have the ability to make mp3's please mail me. we are especially looking for live bootleg concerts). having been given this great amount of space has allowed us to present these songs in a high-quality format, however this makes some of the files quite large (a bit less than one megabyte per minute of music). if you have a slow or unreliable connection, but still want songs from the archive, i would suggest using a download tool, such as GetRight (http://www.headlightsw.com/getright.html) which allows you to resume failed downloads. this makes getting files such as the Patterns & Textures soundtrack (over 46 megs) a bit easier. this is already a huge post, so i will continue (so far, there have been no Wedding Singer mentionings;) ... i have been hanging out a bit on EFNet (IRC) in the channel #theorb i take no responsibility for the conversation there (sometimes IRC gets a little rowdy), but i am an op so complain and someone will cut it out. there aren't a whole lot of people there, but if you want some orb conversation, that's a decent place to look. i will say one more thing; i got my Spherical: tribute to the orb cd in the mail yesterday. as people have said, the packaging rules, and the music's pretty cool too. for 10 bux, it's definitely worth it. thanks. sergio. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: rachel@ironlight.com (rachel) Subject: (orb) Spherical Date: 02 Apr 1998 17:52:09 -0800 wow! i just finished listening to all the tracks of the Spherical comp, and i have to say, i'm really impressed! not only at the professional quality of the disc, but the true orbiness of the tracks!

I really like System 7, so my advice will be *very* biased in their favor, but I'd say that System Express is one of their better releases. Their style is generally similar to that disc, though they do have some rather ambient (less in the way of beats) tracks on their other albums. One of my faves is their second full-length ("777" with a yellow-green cover, from 1993), which has one collaboration w. The Orb (LX and Kris Weston at that time). Their fourth LP ("Power of 7") is also very good and features a very Orb-ish "Davy Jones Locker" (collaboration w. LX). Some of their singles contain excellent (IMO) mixes unavailable elsewhere, so they're worth searching out.... Hope this helps. C-ya. Neil Hetrick nhetrick@idsonline.com onnow: Paul W.

I think we can agree that by virtue of the fact that we subscribe to this list, our musical tastes are not "normal". And even within the list, tastes vary widely. If the someone was a typical pop/rock or alternative radio listener, I would start them with LFC - odds are they may have heard it, especially with the VW commercials today. If they were into the "new electronica" (read: Chemical Brothers/Prodigy), play them Toxygene. The only trouble with that approach is that someone who buys Orblivion for Toxygene is in for a shock when they hear the rest of the album. I once tried A Huge Ever Growing... on a friend with mixed results (he didn't hate it, but he didn't run out and buy Ultraworld either). Blue Room (one of the shorter edits), Towers of Dub, Valley, Delta MK II, whatever YOUR favorite is. Another approach might be to play them Killing Joke's Democracy, then play them the Russian Tundra Mix :-) Rich "The world will end in the year 2000.

Only a few tracks on Terrarvm have clicked for me: Oxbow Lakes - at least it presents a musical idea w/in the first 5 minutes Montagne D'or - assuming I have patience to put with 4+ minutes of "build up" Occidental - walks that fine line between interesting and suicidal I've heard the argument before that albums like Terrarvm build up and explode... 3 years later, and I'm still waiting for this musical orgasm.

It strikes me as a more truly ambient album, rather than an ambient house album.

Yeah, it's professionalism and a true feel for the style.. i have some respect for Bill Laswell and all, but he really just seems to take his pick, depending on what's popular (of course he's into drum&bass now.. gack)-- anyhow, Mad Professor is a true innovator, I love all of his stuff-- i recommend the compilation that's a sort of 'best of'.. its called 'Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad Professor' on ARIWA records.. top tunes, and as a special bonus you get the infamous 'fast forward into dub' where the blue room 'aoooaooaowahhahh' vocal came from.. its sitting there clean in the mix.. =) You can hear things that influenced LX and friends throughout the professor's work.. again, i highly recommend it -dan g # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Dan Grandpre Subject: Re: (orb) Textures....

Not really scared, no.. But once some friends of mine and I were listening to PF, also on acid but it didn't do much for us, we figured that it was because the album itself was such a baby of acid that no matter how much LSD we would fill ourselves with it would stay be the same.. That and of course Plastikman.. Plastikman rules BTW.

"We're happy to be with you, all listeners near and far... and in a song we brought along, we'll tell you who we are." This sample is used on the second Peel Sessions CD without all the distortion and sounds like a barbershop quartet. Pomme Fritz never scared me, but has had the effect of making me angry (well, I was already angry at the time but the song was a good vent for it). I like the CD with its contrast between the angry guy saying "I will fight! I will fight!" (Jim Jones?) and the blissed out lady saying "It's really just the sun" with a part in the middle having the Orb do dumb stuff like making the samples go "berrlooop!" By the way, does anyone know what this sample is saying - I know the first part "But there were honest men, with dreams, who would fight to protect their..." followed by what sounds like "mystical creations" or something like that. I could never figure it out. Similarly, what about the "Sneezy" sample which ends in something like "Chewin' out the backrat" (but obviously that doesn't make sense). If I knew the samples I'm sure I'd have a better idea what's being said here... not that it really matters, but I'm curious. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Kael Driscoll Subject: (orb) 12" of orb Date: 08 Apr 1998 19:28:26 +0800 greetings orbalicious ones yes, that time has come... the annual "I need some money to pay the bills Orb sellout" :) I have two rare items on offer, both on 12" vinyl: (thanks to Laszlo's discog again... what would we do without Laszlo?)

The same thing happened to me with Terrarum. It took me well over a year to finally appreciate it. Now I own it on CD and vinyl! I find that the same thing has happened again with the new album as well. I don't really listen to it all that often and it has yet to click with me. With the orb I always seem to be one album behind, except Pomme Fritz...I always liked that one. About Mad Professor...I like his work but when it comes to dub I'm not a big fan of the more electronic direction that people like Mad Professor, the Scientist, and the later works of Lee Perry have taken. I like real drums and bass in dub. When it comes to dub you gotta go to the roots. And the roots of dub are firmly planted in the late great King Tubby!! And though I have never been scared by the orb myself, they have scared the hell out of my friend's dog :) .\\att # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ctodd@email.unc.edu (DJ Chuck T) Subject: (orb) ftp site problems Date: 09 Apr 1998 00:09:12 -0400 does anyone with a Mac know an application that will run the MP3's from Dan's ftp site?

It was done by a chap called Jason Bilsky (fuzzbox@world.std.com) and I wondered if anyone knew if there had been an updated version done, as it was last revised on November 28, 1993. I think I found it on Ultraworld (www.theorb.com) but that's not updated much at all, so is little help. Anyway, just wanted to know if anyone knew of a new version floating about.

I emailed Jason about this about 6 months ago, and he hadn't updated it since the date on the file. If anyone would like to submit new entries to it, we'd be glad to make the changes on Ultraworld's copy.

The disc is half "chrome" (on the left) / half flat grey, and reads "MORPHOLOGY" vertically in grey-shadowed blue on the chrome side. Catalog number on the disc isn't CDMK3, as in the liner notes, but rather BRO 8756.

(ok, so i wasn't sober or anything) the cherry on the cake of my night was Satellite Serenede - it sure doesn't sound like that on my stereo at home!!!! LX disembarked with this weird show-tuney type of fanfare, accompanied the entire time by WAY bizarre videos - strange mixes of Japanese live action cartoons, Cabaret, Jesus Christ Superstar, Flash Gordon (of course) and Tron. the sound set-up was unparalled, IMHO, especially considering the Maritime's (poor) track-record in that department. and after a long night of one-legged boogeying, i'm feeling much better. let that be a lesson to the non-believers: there's nothing that a good dose of the doctor can't fix! anyone else catch the show? anyone still reading this even? just felt i owed the list my take on the excellent set, and to encourage you all to catch him live, alone or with the crew, as he's a very talented man.... =) rachel # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Johan Jaatinen" Subject: (orb) KLF / Orb records for sale Date: 13 Apr 1998 11:15:47 -0400 I have the following KLF/Orb-related items for sale.

Finally, after many months of scrambling to collect enough money to press it, my CD "Visitation" is for sale. The CD contains six tracks, filling up over 50 minutes of music. The complete track listing is available at http://www.westol.com/~frickblj/cd.html. This is an exciting adventure for me, as it's my first CD. All of the songs are originals, influenced by such musicians as Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis, Tangerine Dream, and The Orb. Many people think my music is similar to that of Pete Namlook. If you would be interested in obtaining a copy of this CD, please contact me. I would be happy to get a copy right out to you. The CD costs $12, plus shipping costs, which are $2 for US/Canada, $3 for UK/Europe/Asia/Africa, and $4 Pacific Rim. I look forward to hearing from you.

Well...the only place I've seen/heard of Roz William's death was in the LA Weekly, and the obituary/eulogy was written by Ron Athey, a former lover of Roz's...it does *not* glamorize his death, or martyr him, although hanging oneself on April Fool's Day is certainly begging to be glamorized and martyred. If half of what I've read of Roz's life is accurate, I'm not surprised that he ended up killing himself...I'm not gloating, I'm not glad, but he apparently had his reasons, and I am the last one to question someone else's decision to kill theirself. That is a decision process that everyone must undergo for theirself.

Date: 18 Apr 1998 12:10:10 +0100 (BST) I'm almost sure it was this list that mentioned something about music in healing. Well it just so happened that my brother (who I share a house with) bought a compilation album: "The Corners of the Mouth - A benefit record for the school of sound". This school of sound has something to do with the Sound Healers Association in the US. There is a load of guff in the liner notes about how the frequencies of sounds outside the body can affect the frequency of vibration inside - all that resonance stuff that the likes of Coil tried in the eighties and those mad classical composers tried in the 50s and 60s. But the album has some high points, heres the list: Mouse on Mars - Funkytise Oval - Polygon Med Pak Hearing is our Concern - Fragmented Seefeel - Filter Dub (Low Pass Mix) Moby/Voodoo Child - Frog (credited to Richard Hall only, so who is Voodoo Child?) AUBE - Gloriole Mice Parade - Peeking around the Corner E.A.R. - Orpheus The Philistines Jr. - Tha Annual Convention of Unemployed Spies Scanner - My Lost Love Hunting Your Lost Face The Dylan Group - Decay The Mouse on Mars, AUBE and Scanner tunes are the highlights of this compilation, but the rest is pretty damn good - apart from the Hearing is our Concern which, although very good, is soooo Autechre-ish without that certain Autechre majick that its a bit of a shame they didn't just come up with something new!

Btw Keith did you8 copy of *Chill Out* come with the track listing on the front cover? I have seen copies of those versions floating around town. Favorite *Chill Out* moment: Kauty and Co. taking the piss out of corporate radio with and tedious, but effective sample of Van Halen's *Eruption* from the first Van Halen release. Do you think Eddie Van Halen even knows it was pilfered?

I think it would be great as the Orb shows have sooo much atmosphere and it would allow Orb to do some really experimental stuff that maybe wouldn't go on an album? They could even do a Orb Live collection similar to Orbital's Satan Live singles. It could bring new people into the Orb who would maybe not be fond of the singles but love the really bizarre stuff, people are willing to take a chance on a single where they wouldn't on the price of an album. What do you think? Any chance of that Andy/Alex?

However the bass line is >not as >prevailing in this mix Length: 9:37 Hey, are these mixes on the "High-Tech-No-Crime" remix album? I never got that...pretty good, is it? The lineup looked pretty good as I remember. Anyway, there are three other mixes on the "YMO vs. Orb: Tong Poo Remixes" EP: Green Herbage Mix (9:43, according to my disc player) Planet of the Crossing Mix (10:00) House of Bright Colours Mix (10:06) I have to put these on again to remember just what goes on with them. They're all rather similar, with lots of dub delay effects on things, the usual Orb grab-bag of samples (speech & other stuff), a deep and seemingly bass-guitar-derived bassline, and reverb-drenched drums that sound like sound more like a drumkit than a 909. There's this "oooohhing," baying vocal motif that crops up here and there as the prominent "melody" in each of the mixes. Pretty nice stuff, but I actually like the "Technodon Remixes II" EP more, probably 'cos there's more variety.... Hope this helps.

Was it just Alex involved with Space? Could someone give me the 411? As I understand it Space was Jimmy Cauty (of the KLF) and Alex P. Jimmy considered Alex more of a DJ than a musician, so when Alex wanted more musical input they got into a fight. This was settled by simply removing all of Alex's contributions, samples, etc. Jimmy then released the album on his own label KLF Communcations. I have also heard that Space was intended to be the first Orb album. I'm not sure about this though. According to Lazlo's discography Fluffy Clouds, Earth, Floating Treasure in Outer Space (Back Side of the Moon), Supernova at the End of the Rainbow (Universe), and Essenes in the 4th Dimension (into the 4th Dimension), ...Ever Growing Brain... were all Cauty era Orb. I'm guessing that means that he was involved in the creation of those songs, but he receives credit on Ultraworld for only the ...Ever Growing Brain... Does that mean that Alex removed all of Jim's contributions to all the other songs? Don "Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry." D.

It's surprisingly good (I'm not a Chem bros fan) and I think it has some Orb vibes (don't take it as an offence, Andy !). It could have been more dancey, but instead it's spacey. The thing that surprises me is that these remixes had many good reviews...just because it's from Chem. Considering little press Orb remixes had, I still think it's unfair but hey...we love them anyway.

It is the US release of the Toxygene single (using the art from the UK Asylum singles), and the LFC mix is the Cumulonimbus mix (previously available on the Aubrey Mixes and the US CD5 of Little Fluffly Clouds), under a different name. You only need this one if you are a completist, as everything on it is available elsewhere.

This last bit is, of course, wrong. I was going by the list provided by the previous poster. Looking at the actual single, it also includes the Live Vegas Mix of Toxygene, which, IMO, is one of the better live Orb tracks available. Buy it! (And instead of the Fila Brazilia mix quoted by the previous poster, it has the Blood Sugar's mix.)

Track five definitely has some Orb samples, (or at least they found the samples that the Orb used on one of the tracks on UFORB). It's quite obvious. It's also fitting that the song is quite on the "dub-by" side. I always hear some recognizable samples in anything Bill and Rhys put out. I guess they can't avoid it when they put out SO MUCH music each year. They also must be some of the most voracious sample collectors anywhere. # 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: Creature Feature Subject: Re: (orb) off the subject Date: 23 Apr 1998 14:59:03 +0100 (BST) On Wed, 22 Apr 1998 22:38:46 -0500 Benajmin Peterson wrote: > > I was browsing at the local CD store and i saw a new collaboration with > Robert Fripp on it.

'le petit orb' were playing in the basement, which probably held a couple of hundred punters. i was quite surprised at how good a mix of people there were, as i thought the place might be populated by pretentious wankers as it was in london. there were young-uns, old-uns, clubbers, ravers, etc. they eventually started playing just before 11pm - andy, lx, and (unless i'm very much mistaken) a certain Nick Burton on percussion (bongos). started pretty well - fairly mellow for a few numbers - and lx played a bit of reggae/dub/ska (including the track the Blue Room vocals were nicked from), but it still felt a bit like they were warming up - i think there might have been a few technical gremlins as well, which didn't help. anyway, once they'd got going, they were SUPERB - and lifted the roof off the place. the beats and tracks were getting harder and harder, and lx and andy were really going for it. by the time they finished around 1am, they were practically a hardcore drum 'n bass collective. the place just went mental, and the set went down a storm. however, it WAS NOT an 'orb' show - more a experimental set/dj thing - don't go expecting what you saw on the last tour, 'cos it aint gonna happen. unfortunately, i had to leave once the band had finished, and drive back to sussex - try and get about four hours sleep (i failed and got about 30mins) - and then get back to london for a meeting first thing this morning. ahhhh! the place was meant to shut at 1am, but as the crowd were making so much noise, lx came back and started to dj again, but i dunno how long he lasted, as i had to piss off. all in all - a top night out, and one that will be repeated on the FIRST sunday of every month for the forseeable future. ;-) here's to next month, as i might have got my hearing back by then... ;-) over and out. ***** -- Smiley # 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@ironlight.com (rachel) Subject: (orb) orbscure tracks Date: 23 Apr 1998 09:24:07 +0100 http://www.ab-cd.com/auction.html is auctioning off a copy of the orbscure tracks, current bid is $16.

To me It is a very ambient album, someone on the list recently (sorry, can't remember who.) discribed it as "an album of orb intros". Close, but i think it has more to it than that. As for comparission to other orb albums, i don't know, can you compare orbus to u.f.orb? or ABTU to orblivion? pomme fritz to Anything?!!

I don't know if anyone watched Liquid TV on MTV, but there's a CGI bit with this nose-eyes going through contortions as a messed up mix of "Everybody's Beautiful in their own way...". Which is a song that I seriously hate. Like yeah, so Hitler was beautiful in his own way? Anyway, I thought that segment was cool. =) - Bobby # 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: nhetrick Subject: Re: (orb) Hating you...

There was another one where this guy goes = round hurting himself in various ways (electrocution, laser gun = wound, crushed by an asphalt roller machine, blown up in a natural = gas explosion, etc.), all the while with this snarling dog's jaws = locked onto his leg.

I wouldn't be surprised if it = was Fripp, but it's not the same 'Frippertronics' stuff that makes = the bulk of "FFWD>>."

FYI, the Minnie Ripperton track is currently being used by Birger King here in the states. Also, I forgot who it was, but someone had done a cover about four years ago and was getting quite a bit of airplay on the "urban" radio stations (WGCI here in Chicago).

Kinda silly if you ask me, I mean you can tell what it was, and it ain't anything like the original but still you can't get permission? That's almost as stupid as Ricky Lee's publicist demanding she get 100% of the credit for "writing" LFC (same interview w/ LX) Andrew ...and they call us freaks coz we listen to the orb?!? > FYI, the Minnie Ripperton track is currently being used by Birger King > here in the states. # 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: Ryan Platte Subject: (orb) Re: king crimson Date: 30 Apr 1998 23:37:24 -0400 >...Fripp is going to be doing one of his King Crimson Projekt things live at the 9:30 club this Saturday (or is it on Friday?)...I'll probably check it out.... one of my friends-in-orb is demanding that we go together to see king crimson the 30th in cleveland...he's seriously hype about it. thing is, i heard "exposure" and have "darshan", his project w/david sylvian, and (i think this is relatively safe to say on the orb list vs. other places) i'm not really diggin the 70s weird-out-but-still-kinda-conventional style of rock he seems to do. am i deciding too soon? too harshly? is king crimson different from that? what can i expect? pluses and minuses please. i would really like advice from some orb listeners on this one. so my question: should i, an avid orb devotee who loves robert fripp's work with brian eno and the orb as well as his ambient solo work, expect anything that will appeal to me at a king crimson concert? how is king crimson's music like fripp's solo work? how is it different? thanks all. ryan # 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.
