From: John Goelzer Subject: RE: (orb) if you live in NYC... Date: 01 Oct 1998 08:00:04 -0500 Yes, I saw the UNKLE instore at Tower in Chicago last night. DJ Shadow spins an UNKLE set he'll never repeat, they premiere the "Rabbit in Your Headlights" video (which involves a guy getting run over by cars over and over again - pretty out there), they both do Q&A and are very gracious afterwards about signing stuff. Oh, and I'd recommend standing pretty close to Shadow during his set (maybe a few rows back) if you want a pleasant surprise... Sorry for the off-topic post, but it was and they were very cool. They'll also be in Austin, TX tomorrow (10/2) at Waterloo @ 5:00 PM. Enjoy! JG -----Original Message----- Anyone who lives in NYC, UNKLE aka James Lavelle and DJ Shadow will be playing this thursday (!!!) at the new union sq. virgin megastore.

A : Yes, but it's nothing to do with the album...ha, ha. No, let's be serious here, I wasn't looking for individual tracks, I just wanted to gather together a real mish-mash of songs. Once again, that meant the Orb fell foul of the stupid BPI rules. If you do a two-Cd album of 'greatest hits' the second CD has to be remixes. Don't ask me why. Most people would probably say that The Orb haven't got two CDs worth of hits anyway ! Q : Did that mean re-recording tracks ? A : Not re-recording exactly. We did a bit of, ahem, sonic tweaking here and there but that was about it. Obviously there were some tracks we had to mess with. I mean, it would have been ridiculous to include the 40-minute mix of Blue Room on there. That would have been a real con. For Assassin we had two 20-minute versions and we edited them down to one and a half minutes, crossfading between the two. One track on the album is only going to be 45 seconds long. Next Q&A tomorrow ! In the last issue of NME, we have two Orb ads. A large one about UF off saying "launch next week". A small one for the Royal Albert Hall concert.

A : We've never really worked like that. When we go into a studio it's usually because we're ready to put together a track and we spend our time working on that track. We don't suddenly shoot off in another direction for a couple of weeks. Having said that, we've just got our own writing room which has caused a slight shift in our working methods. It's funny..when you don't have to pay for studio time, it's a lot easier to mess around with ideas. Wonder why that is ? Q : What sort of set-up have you got in this new writing room then ? A : I keep it very simple. I have two turntables... and a microphone...sorry, I have two turntables and two Vestax DJ mixers. One of the mixers is quite comprehensive. It has a built-in drum machine and built-in sampler. Basically that allows me to do live sampling.

A : I think some of the bad feeling came out on Orbus Terrarum which the British press gave a good kicking. What was funny was that the Americans really picked up on the album. Rolling Stone made it their album of the month. They thought we'd reinvented music. That sort of paved the way for the Chemicals and the Prodigy. To be honest, we didn't want to do the whole big American experience. We were asked to play Madison Square Garden but we refused on principle. Q : What principle ? A : That we'd have to support Depechemode. Q : So how's the new Orb album going ? A : We're hard at work. I've got a feeling in my water about this new album. There's something definitely different happening. It's loads of different styles from drum n bass to African. And Classic. It's a bit difficult to describe but it's definitely not going to be typical Orb tunes. Q: Any regrets over the last 10 years ? A: Regrets ? Naah ! I'm having a wonderful time.

If you like the Orb, you'll probably like most of the Hillage/Giraudy tracks. They have great collaborators (Derrick May, Laurent Garnier, Youth, LX...) for great tracks. The first album (both US and UK versions) is interesting, they still do SONGS (with lyrics). The second one (777) is essential for the LX/Thrash collaboration. The Fire (beats) and Water (no beats) albums are great too. The Power of 7 album has "Davy's jones locker" with LX. The System Express is a remix album. The Golden Reunion album is cool too. And the 12" are worthwile, especially the one with the LX remix "Mia" (Ultraworld colony mix)... My 10 favorite System 7 tracks are : * Mia (Ultraworld Colony mix) - 12" * Davy's Jones Locker - Power of 7 * Mysterious traveller - Fire * A cool dry place - 777 * Strange quotations - System 7 / 777 (1st album) * Big sky city (Jacob's optical stairway remix) - System Express * Rite of spring - Golden reunion * Women of Ireland (System 7 remix) - Mike Oldfield CD Single * A sprinkling of clouds (belly dance mix) - Gong : You remixed * Hangar 84 - Power of 7 I've only seen them live during a Rachid Taha concert (with LX as a DJ) in Paris two years ago, but I'll definitely try to see them performing as soon as possible.

I currently have two cd copies in my possession... one is up for trade/sale, so drop me a line... as for a FFWD review, here is a quickie: (please note that most of this is hearsay and probably inaccurate) This album makes sense if you imagine F,F,W and D sitting in the studio during the mixing phase. Apparently they set up a couch in front of the mixing desk and all four of them sat there and twiddled away merrily in unison. In the beginning, many of the tracks had drums and percussion parts. Gradually during the mixing, D mixed out all these beats until it was an entirely beatless soundscape. Eventually the german F persuaded him to return the drums to some of the album, including the crashing "colossus". What results is one of the most bizarre recordings I own. The first song, "lucky saddle" is somehow reminiscent of speedboats... thats about as close as I can get really... Mmmmm... on second thoughts, I'd better go home and have another listen... :) kael # 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: Smiley@cracl.demon.co.uk (Smiley) Subject: (orb) Re: rudeness???

F. OFF (yummm) Date: 06 Oct 1998 00:37:02 EDT I called my local import shop today and asked them when they would be getting this in. They said they have had it since Saturday!!! (even before the British release). So I ran down and picked it up. I just noticed that the track listing in my book is out of order! It starts with CD 1 on one page and skips to the middle of CD 2 on the second page, then back to the second half of CD 1 and ends with the first half of CD 2 list on the inside back cover......odd. I don't think it's a misprint as the cover and the inside pages are different weights. The mixes on CD 1 aren't as choppy as I'd thought they'd be. It flows nicely (except for track 13). I still wish they'd have done complete songs and not a 'mix'. Mickey Mars is OK too. Not like a 'regular' orb piece but good. Towers of Dub (original mix) is great.

I don't know, really. Usually, I don't buy them because I prefer to listen to a whole album rather than a collection of singles. I like albums (or good EPs) because it has a continuity. A best of a group like The Orb is a strange thing. The Orb does (sometimes too much) long tracks, it creates an atmosphere. Sometimes, you get lost in it. And that's the point with the Orb. "Where is the tune ? Is it really music ?" It's like a soundtrack without images, because you do yourself the picture. Is "UF Off" a good start for beginners ? Is it a good introduction ? Well, yeah... It defines what is the group. It stays with the tunes, and the mixing creates the atmosphere. "Orblivion" had more tracks that any other Orb albums, "Ufoff" is like that. It's a "Keep the tunes strong" attitude... The Best of (CD 1) has 13 tracks. The choice of the Orbital Dance mix for " A huge..." is rather odd for me. Same thing for the Solar youth mix of "Perpetual dawn". And the "DJ Asylum" 7" edit which is the single version contained in the EPs (I prefer the album version). But this first album is a trip to different places. Is 3 minutes of Blue Room a good thing ? You recognize the track, but the Orb plane has a long way to go. You can't stay longer in one place at a time. If you want to have more, try the whole experience with the albums or the EPs. I think it's the message of the best of. It's an appetizer, but a good one... And watch out for the secret track of CD1 which is a new remix of Oxbow Lakes. I called it the Strange and creepy mix... The Rare tracks (CD2) is the other side of the Orb. I can say that the track listing is inappropriate. The Assassin mix is called "Chocolate hills of bohol mix" and is 1:15 long ! A chocolate hills of bohol edit mix... :) Same thing with the radio version of A huge... (0:58) The CD2 is more for fans, it could take some time to like it if you don't know the group. And Smiley was right, the Red X mix of Mickey Mars is better than the 7" edit. But the Montagne d'Or remix is too noisy for me... Will "UFOFF" be a crowd pleaser ? I'm not sure... Let's hope so... What tracks are exclusive to the best of ? CD 1 : Mickey Mars (7"edit) Oxbow Lakes (Hidden mix) CD 2 : Little Fluffy clouds (Live from Washington 97) Pomme Fritz (Orb remix) Mickey Mars (Red X mix) Pi (Part 2) Montagne d'Or (Vestax mix) JCFromParis On now : Orb - Montagne d'Or (Vestax mix) # 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: Smiley@cracl.demon.co.uk (Smiley) Subject: (orb) Re: anasthesia Date: 06 Oct 1998 12:01:13 GMT jc writes: > And I shouldn't tell you but I've got the reply from Blue Moon Records : > > * Who produced / engineered the Anesthesia album ?

They played a version of Assassin that was quite relenless. pounding you with the main heavy beat over-and-over. This version is not on any official release. It might be on a bootleg. Check around, look for live bootleg made on the 'ORBUS' tour. You might want to check "Dipping into the cyberworld" on the 'Ultraworld' page. The version of "Towers of Dub" on this CD is the version I heard in dallas, but I'm sure it has differences since it was recorded in Woodstock and in the UK In my opinion Assassin is one of the more under-rated Orb tracks. I'm glad to see it on the 'Best of', so more people can enjoy it. Oh by the way: Back in 94', I did win 2nd place for my mix of Assassin in the "Absorb the Orb" remix contest. If anybody would like to hear it, e-mail of course. # 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: Dreamer Subject: Re: (orb) info from andy...

That somehow dosen't surprise me that LX had nothing to do with that remix as it really isn't all that. It has this sample of a girl throughout the whole song repeatedly saying..."wow i just found my first dime for a Sprite" (rather odd sample to choose, i wonder what they were smoking in the basement that day?) and the music is pretty good but not phenomenol. Don't get me wrong, this mix is not that bad, just not any of their most phenomenol work by far. It is worth picking up the whole More Signs Of Life compilation for though as the rest of the music on the comp is really wicked. A lot of really intelligent ambient/dub music that is along the same types of records i saw LX spin both times i saw him play three hour DJ sets when i was living in San Francisco.

Several months ago I posted a plea for help in finding a copy of Sun Electric's Aaah! CD. Many people wrote back saying "try ordering from CDNow, MusicBlvd, EAR/Rational, etc.," to which I replied that I had already tried many of these avenues. Since then, I've tried *again* to order it from each of the sources I listed above and all have failed. What I'm asking is simple: if there is a physical, in-stock copy at a record store you frequent, would you consider picking it up for me and shipping it? I'd be glad to send $$ in advance. This seems to me to be the best approach to actually getting a copy. Your help will be appreciated, believe me. This is a big gap in my Sun Electric collection I'd like to fill. Thanks in advance. JG PS - Of course, if you already own an extra or unwanted copy I'll gladly take it off your hands. # 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: Orbfile23@aol.com Subject: (orb) system 7 is all right!!!!!!!!!!!

Date: 07 Oct 1998 12:47:16 -0700 I definitely dig Steve Hillage, although I haven't heard too much. After falling in love w/ his guitar on "777" (esp. Sunburst and Over And Out) I thought I would try to find some solo stuff. There's an album by him called "For To Next And Not Or" that is actually an album (For To Next) and a freebie disc that came with the album originally (And Not Or) combined. The first half is basically rock/pop and didn't do a whole lot for me, but the second half is more experimental, and worth checking out if you like Hillage's guitar. Speaking of 777, I think "Over And Out" on 777 is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. Are there any remixes/extended versions of this track out there?

Here in Albuquerque, we used to have a Best Buy basically right across the street from a Media Play (Musicland's attempt at standalone music/book/video/software stores). Boy, let me tell you, with those two battling it out with each other you could get just about any damn thing you cared to name for $11 or $12. Of course, then Media Play closed down because they couldn't make any money selling CDs at those prices...and Best Buy immediately started hiking things up to the $13-$15 range. And over the last six months Best Buy's selection has gone right into the shitter.

Well, no imports ever sell for $12 a pop anywhere. But general domestic releases, sure. Newbury Comics, a small (15 or 20 stores) chain in New England (which, last time I checked, qualified as northeast), sells loads of CDs for $12 a pop, and they stock lotsa kool indie labels and techno stuff. New releases and top 100 are always pretty cheap there. I got the 2CD DJ Shadow _Preemptive_Strike_ for $11.88 there. And their "$3 off" coupons are ubiquitous (you can download them from http://www.newbury.com if you desire). Their imports are steep, but no steeper than Tower or HMV usually (no Blockbuster Music or Virgin Megastore around here). > plus to my knowledge there's no best buy up here.. I've seen ads on TV implying that they're coming to New England soon.

There;s this super dope store in the Boston area called Newbury Comics that had all new releases and top 50 for $11.88 and every sunday they have cupons for $3 off any cd regularly priced 12.99 or more, so you usually wont pay more than $3 for any new cd, unless its normally a double.

Most of the "big name" stores (I'm thinking along the lines of Camelot, the Wall, Coconuts, Sam Goody, etc.) are ridiculously expensive. The Wall is by far the worst in my area. Coconuts is the cheapest. For example, a brand new cd (NOT on sale) at Coconuts will be anywhere from $14.99 to $16.99...the SAME cd at The Wall would range from $17.00 to $19.99! Granted, if I travel 45 miles northeast to State College, Pennsylvania, there are a few outlets of a local(?) chain called Mike's Music & Movies (r Mike's Moveis & Music), where (they claim) MOST cds are $11.99. First, this isn't necessarily the case--I was just there a few weeks ago, and saw PLENTY of cds above that. Second, that doesn't really help me at all, since I travel to State College maybe once every couple months--and it's usually NOT just to browse cd stores. The point: I must concur that many of us AREN'T fortunate enough to live in an area in which there is adequate competition--and hence, lower (read as: reasonable) prices. Hey--if any record company/record chain execs are paying attention (and I DOUBT SERIOUSLY that any are...or would even care, for that matter), THAT is the main reason I don't purchase new cds from new groups and artists. In fact, the only cds I HAVE been purchasing over the past several years are those that I already had on cassette. (A SLIGHT exaggeration only, I assure you.). And believe you me: I'm NOT the only one! I mean, why would I want to shell out nearly $20 for something I'm not even sure I'll listen to, when I can replace my decaying cassette copy of something I KNOW I'll listen to over and over again? I'm no wiz at economics or marketing or anything, but I would almost guarantee that if Those In Power would reduce their prices by 1/3 (33 percent), they would see a sales increase which would be MORE than that.... Also, folks: Why is there such a ridiculous disparity between the prices of cassettes and cds? It costs LESS to manufacture a cd than a cassette, but they charge MORE for the friggin' cd! (Correct me if I'm wrong!) But I guess things could be worse, huh? Sorry, I had to vent. (I'm digressing into my old ultra- left tendencies...blah!) ;-) Later!

Is it really worth it ? Bah... Q : What song describes you best ? A : 'Towers of dub' by us, because it has all the elements : ambient, dub, manicness and samples. And humour. Q : What is heaven ? A : A path through hell. Q : What is hell ? A : It's a place on earth. Where ? In one's soul. Heaven is in your soul as well; it depends on which path you want to make. Q : What is your earliest memory ? A : Having a piece of silver paper being taken out of my nose with a pair of tweezers by my dad when I was about one. Q : What is your greatest fear ? A : Fear. Q : What is your all-time hero ? A : Colin Wilson. He writes books on fiction, fact, crime, sort of pre-X Files mysteries from the 60's. He's written my favorite book, The Philosopher's stone, which is about trepanning and using the brain to lever itself into different dimensions, as opposed to using drugs. Q : What's the worst trouble you've been in ? A : A recent time was last week-end when I got arrested by the Spanish police in Vigo for being an Ecstasy dealer with a mobile phone on the beach the previous night. They picked me up in the middle of the gig. I was taken away for about 5 hours and then brought back after they got a lawyer in to sort it out. Otherwise I would've had to stay there all weekend. Thing is, I wasn't even on the beach, and yet thay said they'd seen me there. Q : Who was the first love of your life ? A : Annette. We went out for nearly 6 years. Q : What's your greatest talent ? A : At the minute, DJing. I like the instant gratification- if you're shit, the crowd'll let you know. But when they're happy, you're happy. Q : Upon whom you most like to exact revenge ? Why ? How ? A : Unprintable. I'd get sued. But you know who you are. Q : What's your most treasured possession ? A : My two terrapins. Fascinating creatures. Q : What have you most regretted doing while drunk ? A : Swinging from balcony to balcony, 20 floors up somewhere in Spain. Or in Germany, when I set fire to a hotel door. I thought that would be the easiest way in. Q : What can you cook ? A : Pastas, sauces - vegetarian food, really. Q : What's the best piece of advice you've received ? A : It's all in the mind. Q : Can you read music ? A : No. Q : If you were invisible for a day, what would you do ? A : I'm reading a comic at the moment called The Invisibles, and in it there's a secret force of invisible people who go around protecting the good from evil on Earth. Maybe I'd become one of them. Q : What are your final 3 wishes ? A : I'd have a big brandy, a spliff, and somewhere nice like Scotland to scatter my ashes. My fourth wish before that would be to be a DJ in a hotel foyer in outer space. It's just got to be done. Questions by Piers Martin.

Does anyone know what became of this lawsuit? Isn't it interesting how you can pay $16.99 for a new CD album at a mall store, and only $3.99 for a CD single which has just as much music on it when they both cost exactly the same amount of money to produce? And then there are CD clubs, which end up only charging you between $2 and $5 per CD when you take the membership deal into account! And it's often the exact same CD you buy in the mall, although sometimes they are manufactured by the CD club to decrease costs slightly... In the US, we have to pay an average of $9-$10 for import singles, which aparently cost the equivalent of $3-$4 (less than US CD singles) when first released in the UK... Price gouging due to higher percieved value perhaps? It now costs a lot more to manufacture casettes than CDs even before the casettes are recorded, yet prerecorded casettes retail for less than CDs. What's even more interesting is that videotapes are much more complicated internally and include a lot more and higher quality tape than audio casettes, yet they cost significantly less! Movies on videotape can be purchased for less than the cost of a CD which has a shorter running length, and doesn't include an image! There are obviously some marketing geniuses calculating exactly how much money they can squeeze out of different types of consumers for each kind of media by creating a false perception of high value in the mind of said consumer!

If you want commodity items, try buying soybeans, corn or pork bellies. I believe the concept is that you are purchasing the music, not the cd. Otherwise just go out and buy a hunk of plastic for that $0.25. The only way cd prices will come down is if people dont buy them at the current prices.

Amoeba should get it eventually, but they sometimes take a while to get imports (it took them an extra week to get Orblivion if I remember right) [be sure to check at both the Berkeley and SF Amoeba stores] Rasputins might have it, but they'll probably charge $40 for it because it's a double, since they always charge at least $30 for 1CD imports :( There's a small chance that Tower will get it, but I doubt it - if they do, it will either be the Berkeley one, or the Noe&Market one in SF.

Andy Hughes was the engineer. I don't know about you guys, but this 'period' of orb is my favorite. "pomme fritz","FFWD" and then "ORBUS". In my opinion, (everyone has one), this was the Orb moving forward and coming up with new ideas. Not just the "pop tunes".(L-F-C, perpetual dawn) These are good songs, they all are, but LX and gang were going somewhere. Sorry guys I don't really like Orblivion. It's certainly the Orb's least interesting work. The tracks are too short. Once you start getting into a track (which are all good) the track ends??? I know they wanted shorter tracks for Orblivion but they should have released a 2 cd version with longer songs. If it wasn't for Orbscure tracks I wouldn't be able to remix Orblivion as much as I do. Orblivion is fun to remix but I make longer mixes though!!!! I always thought 'Pomme Fritz' could have been sold with the slogan "The album that remixes itself!" I still hear new things in that album. It's been out 4YEARS!!!!! God has it been that long???? One last note: The FFWD joke is: "Fripp, Fehlmann, Weston, and Doc." FFWD is ambient ambient ambient. Great stuff. Different. If you find it I suggest anyone pick it up. You'll regret it if you don't. Anyone have the Falconer solo album?? I have it, and if you haven't heard it. you should.

I would recommend UFOrb or Orbus Terrarum, as they are pretty easy to find, and pretty listener-friendly. Orbivion is more "commercial" than their other stuff, if you like that. I would NOT recommend Pomme Fritz, it's not a good CD to start out on the Orb with (Not that I don't like it, just that it DOES take some getting used to). Besides that, get anything you can find! There's actually not that much Orb stuff that's easy to find (where I am at least), I don't know what it's like near you.... so grab what you can get. -- Jeff "Just think, with VLSI we can have 100 ENIACS on a chip!" -- Alan Perlis # 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: Michael Bailey Subject: Re: (orb) ffwd Date: 09 Oct 1998 12:15:00 -0600 (MDT) > I suggest anyone pick it up.

I called 5 times in a month the guy who's working for Orb in Island France. I told him that I was a big fan, bla bla bla and I was looking for the Little Fluffy Clouds 98 Double 12" promo. And I FINALLY RECEIVED IT TODAY ! Well... I don't know why promo albums or 12" exist. I mean, I'm talking about those which will never be released officially. What's the point ? Is it only for DJs ? Not sure, when you look at Rick Wright 12" remixes (never released), for example. Well, I'm looking at the gorgeous MadArk cover of the promo (a Mars landscape with Micky Mars !) and I'm 70% sure : it will probably be released "for all mankind". Let's take at the tracks : Danny Tenaglia's Downtempo groove is a kind of updated Pal Joey remix (the Cumulo Nimbus mix is also there) : same texture, with an ambient ending. Strange for a guy who remixed Pet Shop Boys and Janet Jackson in a housey way. His Detour Mix is more dancey, you can hear snippets of the song in samples; I might be wrong, but he also put Juno Reactor's Luciana and other Orb stuffs in this remix. It's nothing like the original, though. The Adam Freeland Tsunami One remix is interesting, but my favorite is the drum'n'bass remix done by One True Parker (is Andrea Parker the same person ?). A friend of mine bought a copy of this at 10UKP/100FF/17USD. If you're a hardcore fan, it's essential. But don't expect another interpretation by LX, Thomas and Andy in it. It's only the Orb vs other remixers.

I discovered the orb right when U.F.Orb was released and grabbed up all their stuff I could find. My favorite CD is probably the Orb Peel sessions on strange fruit (back side of the moon etc.1991). Anyway, been out of the loop for a bit. What is the relationship (if any) between the Orb and the Pink Floyd trance remix albums? Certainly a fair amount of cross sampling it seems. Does anyone have the Orb vs Eno? I have a dub on tape, but no way to get it to cd now that my tape deck died.

Date: 12 Oct 1998 19:17:10 +0100 Greetings all, I'm new to the list and would welcome any comments as to how rare the following CD is. Titled "The Orb, various mixes 90-93" it contains the following: Spanish Castles in Space Satellite Serenade Towers of Dub Waterford Remix Robinson Crusoe U.F.Orb Orbular Bells All tracks are full length and mixed together with excellent sound quality. It seems to have been marketed by "Chop Em Out", based in London. It was sold to me by a well known second hand record store as: "various mixes 1990-93, rare studio only CD featuring 7 Orb mixes. This is mega rare - promo 274" Is it a rarity, or just a bootleg?

If you're in Sacramento (or just visiting!) you must try THE BEAT on J Street. They've always got lots of interesting goodies - that's where I got my "1987" CD oh so many years ago before I learned about the Marshall connection. :) They stock loads of imports, both albums and singles, and be sure to check out their clearance imports too! I haven't been there since I moved to the Bay Area, which probably means they still have everything that only I would have bought. :) Thanks, CRZ # 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: Orbfile23@aol.com Subject: (orb) you know I love all you but.....

The soundtrack to the movie "Sling Blade" has steel guitar in it. It's written by Daniel Lanois who co-wrote Apollo with both Eno's. A good part of the album is ambient and the rest is sort of countryish (yes, a vert strange mix). But I think, overall, it's worth getting.

Hmmm, from my point of view, from the amount of people I have personally introduced the orb to, plus the fact that virtually all of my friends thought they were excellant at the Reading Festival, I reckon that LFC would probably sell quite well, it reached number 10 in 93, I think it would do better second time round as it's always the track that Radio One play if they do play an orb track, about summer time last year, R1 played LFC loads of times, it was quite wierd, I made me think they were releasing it again, but now they I can't wait!

"Hailing from Amsterdam, Yaco Vyn, who works under the moniker Silicon Attic, produces and spins an aggressive mix of techno, breakbeat and trance. "The Gas," which is a bit softer than his typical fare, is taken from the compilation _More Signs Of Life_ (Blue Room Americas), which also features a remix by techno lords in The Orb.

I only buy CDs, so I can't vouch for any store's Orb Vinyl collection, but for CDs: Amoeba Music is in more ways than one a Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Entity Which Recently Divided And Now Rules From The Centre Of Berkeley And San Francisco! (I guess these 2 cities must be the Ultraworld ;) Seriously, the enormous Amoeba Music at the end of Haight street, on the East end of Golden Gate Park has the best collection of used and rare CDs in the area, and also has the best prices. The Berkeley Amoeba Music on Telegraph is also great, but they've been pulling good stuff from that store to get the SF store started, so the SF store is currently better. Both Amoebas have a lot of Vinyl, but I can't rate it... Most of the other stores in SF pale in comparison, especially for Orb stuff. Rasputins in Berkeley on Telegraph (1 block from Amoeba) is as big as Amoeba, but higher priced, more disorganized, and has a worse selection of used stuff. Mod Lang on University by Shattuck in Berkeley ismainly good for new imports on CD and Vinyl - I know that they have UFOff on both Vinyl and CD...

Date: 13 Oct 1998 13:18:45 -0700 I just wanted to vent my frustration to the list about U.F.Off being released with the limited edition disc in other countries. Before the initial UK release, I heard it was limited to something like 10,000 or 15,000 copies, and ONLY the UK release would have the second disc. Now, After special ordering the UK release and $35 later, I hear that the ltd. edition is going to be released in Canada and the US, making my hard-to-get-here-in-the-US copy of the UK ltd ed. release less of an accomplishment. Is this some scheme by the label to hype up the initial release and get guys like me to run out and buy it right away so the damn thing gets on the charts for a week? After telling all of my Orb friends that they HAVE to get this UK release because they won't have the opportunity to get the 2nd disc in the much cheaper US release, I'm gonna look like a fool when they're browsing the Orb section and see an $18 copy of the same set. OK, I'm done now, and to be perfectly honest, I would have shelled out the extra cash to get it a month earlier anyways -- it's just a principle thing.

You have to slow the sample down for the Orb mix. The real one is MUCH faster, so maybe you didn't recognize it because of that? > BTW, I heard "The rolling people" by the Verve.

A very good album indeed. You'll also notice that the Enigma track from MCXVMCC DIKGIL whatever is also stolen from 666.

Date: 14 Oct 1998 12:51:16 EDT Skidoo here Real quick, The album version is the 3rd version released and the "Ambient mix" is the original found on the "Orb in Dub EP". The Patturns and Textures version is the 4th version. The 'Mad Prof" mix (2nd) is on the "Blue Room" single. ('Blue Room' came out before U.F.Orb, I have a feeling the album was mixed before the single was released. U.F. Orb came out 2 weeks later.) The "P and T" version is just the ambient mix with some more samples thrown over it. Plus Steve Hillage plays live guitar on all the tracks. This is reason enough to get the "P and T" recording! "Towers of Dub" is a great track on the Video soundtrack, but the version of Perpetual Dawn on this recording is kick ass. As a matter of a fact other than 'LFC' mix the rest of the recording is certainly not worthy of being missed. Anyone agree that the "P and T" version of "Outlands" is the best mix of the track. A really driving version!!!!!!! Oh by the way the visuals for the video are great as well. Tanks for listening, Doc!!!!!!

What's all this talk about Moby??? I've been on this list for almost two years now (I think), and I've not heard Moby's name mentioned ONCE. All the music guides make him out to be some sort of God (which he would find blasphemous, I'm sure) in the electronic music world. I bought one album of his--Everything Is Wrong--based SOLELY on record reviews: they all said it was the single greatest album of that particular year, etc., but to be quite honest, I wasn't at all impressed with it. I took it back to the store, and exchanged it for something else. Has he ever done anything with the Orb's music, or vice versa? One good thing he's done though (and I think I've mentioned this before) is a cover of Joy Division's "New Dawn Fades" which is absolutely kickass--even BETTER than the original, if you can believe that! It's on the Joy Division tribute album.

A When I first bought Everything is Wrong... I hated it... and if you followed the reviews at the time, they did too... But I kept listening to it.. I put it away for awhile and then I heard on of the songs at a club somewhere. I pulled the album out later.. and It grew on me fast. I think the way the album is laid out is great. And I know tons of people that agree with me. I first thought it was horrible how he would put a really fast punk song in the middle of two techno songs. But the more I listened to it.. the more it made sense why he did that. And then later on that year.. All the reviewers that once before gave it a bad rap, were raving about it and calling it album of the year. To me this album ranks in my personal top ten all time Albums... (and this includes a lot of albums (two others are Orb albums, UFOrb, and Orbus Terrarum (I had to put some Orb content in here(and more parenthesis)))).

I saw him twice. Once when he opened for the Shaman on the U.S. Entact tour. He was pretty cool with a load of keyboards. (I think mixmaster morris was the D.J., as well) I saw him again when "Young American Primative" opened for him. He sucked the the second time around. He just had a Dat running, while he danced around with a beat up keyboard. I was looking from a balcony above him, so I know he wasn't doing much of the way of 'live' music. Soul-less crap if you ask me. sorry moby fans I just don't care for his music or his persona. Even if he knows classical guitar. >>>>>see if this one is posted on the list<<<<<<<< Skidoo "out" Young American Primitive kicks ass.

And yes I like it specifically because it is sooo freaking noisy. I find the 2nd peel sessions version to mellow.

I have a copy of the US Big Life /Mercury LFC 12" Promo single. It uses the cat # as the following from the discog: 12": 1991 US (Big Life/Mercury/Polygram; 865139-1) [Nov 91] 6:10 Little Fluffy Clouds (cumulonimbus mix) 6:38 Little Fluffy Clouds (dis joint don't argue mix) 4:05 Little Fluffy Clouds (seven inch mk 1) ["dance mix mk 1 edit"] 3:58 Little Fluffy Clouds (inner master mix) 8:00 Outlands (fountain of elisha) Track list is the same, however on the back cover it is stamped in gold "Promotional Copy Not for Sale". And the record itself indicates the same quite clearly on both sides (of the label in the center of the record). However, as I said before I saw no promo version of this release indicated on the discoq. Anyone else seen this before? Lazlo, any thoughts? A little side note, got my U.F.Off yesterday. I must say, all though most everything on there I all ready have, I am very happy with the Blue Room Ambient Mix (if only they were to do a 40 minute version of this one, it could be the upgrade to the ever classic original 40 minute version). In fact a double pack release with a new 40 minute version and the original would be phat like that. Mickey Mars is pretty cool to but that chanting gets a little anoying ( I have a marveless recording from a real Pow Wow (I think thats how it's spelt, my spelling is horrid, i know) that would have sounded a lot better. One more note while I'm at it. If anyone out there has purchased Morphology from Isolation Tank, have you noticed that it is missing a few of the tracks indicated on the Discog, as being on Morphology. Obviosly its a CD-R, but I noticed that it is also missing The Blue Room radio edit, and on the last track (Orb Vs. KLF) it says it is 6:02 but it actually clocks in at 3:42, and also the secret simpson snippet is missing as well. Not a very good CD-R of the Bootleg considering its own track list is off and its missing from tracks from the original. Well, sorry to put all this crap on one message, but I like to take care of all my thoughts at once.

I sent an inquiry to them the other day (I purchased a brand new copy of the US cd5 of Perpetual Dawn there last year for $15), asking if they had, by chance, a copy of LFC. The response was that they had one copy in their archives, and was not for sale. They purport to have 90% of EVERYTHING recorded since 1947 or so, and can burn copies of anything in their archives. I had no idea they would charge so friggin' much, though! So basically, if you're looking for ANYTHING, and don't mind shelling out an obscene amount of money for a cd-r, I would suggest checking them out....

That's an entirely different situation. The right to *play* music can be bought from ASCAP and BMI and the like. The right to *distribute* music is another matter entirely. In your case, Don, the school probably did have the right to use the music in a film that you produced, because they can broadcast that music. However, they very likely did not have the right to press up CDs of the music and sell them. It's a fine distinction, but an important one.

(Hint: the answer is never.) Actually, once, and Adam, you should remember this- Back in '88-89, Tower Records had a huge machine that allowed you to "create your own mix tape". there was a magazine that came out monthly that listed all the songs you could choose from, and cost for each one, which was a buck or so a piece. They didn't have every song from every label, but IIRC, they had something in the order of 10,000-20,000 songs to choose from. You paid the fee, and in a half hour or so (High-speed duping :-P) you got your own custom tape. I think that some labels did not elect to participate in this, so some bands (i think the Beatles were conspicuously absent) got no representation, and some got over-represented, due to advertising in the magazine or at the machine. As I remember, this only lasted a few months before it was unceremoniously carted away. I guess people weren't that interested in NOT sitting around with a ton of CDs making their own mix... I wonder how that idea would work nowadays... > I'd love to see the contract they have with Island or whoever saying that > they have the right to do this. I'll bet it doesn't exist.

I remember hearing about web sites that were authorized to store copyrighted music so that people could download and burn a copy themselves if they wanted (of course I can't remember where--NPR probably). That is the equivalent of this, and if the record companies got the same profit from this arrangement as from selling the CD's themselves, I see no reason why they wouldn't do it.

I actually thought of that. And you're right, there were plenty of tracks to choose from. But as you said, there were very many popular bands that were not represented at all in this arrangement, and every track was separately licensed, unlike the arrangement stated by the original poster. There are sites that do this today for CDs, but again, there are only certain tracks available. CDuctive (http://www.cductive.com) is one that caters to the (dreaded word) "electronica" crowd, and they have some good stuff there, but every track is, again, separately licensed. I should have been much clearer. I was trying to say that a "blanket" authorization to distribute any music you want by a particular artist or record company has never existed. -- Adam J Weitzman NewsEdge Corporation Is it supposed to http://www.newsedge.com sound like that? http://www.newspage.com # 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: Mike Bailey Subject: Re: (orb) CD-r Date: 15 Oct 1998 14:16:01 -0600 (MDT) At 12:59 PM 10/15/98 -0500, you wrote: > >Hell!

It is definitely the wave of the future and I'm trying right now to compete with cductive, it's going to be a LOOOOONG fight, but it's possible. Major record labels are fearing customized cds right now because they could very well erode at the profits of regular cds you buy in Tower. I agree--the label isn't going to make as much if you choose "Little Fluffy clouds" and neglect the rest of the album. I'll bet tons of people would probably do that if they weren't really into the Orb. For some of the more obscure artists, this is a perfect avenue for them. They get more exposure, their tracks get to be heard, and if they do well with tracks on customized-cds, maybe a major label will pick them up. You will probably see more of this in the future, because labels can't ignore the internet. And for us "tech-ies"---we're always on here, listending to mp3s, swapping music, etc. etc. This is the next form of radio and it's perfect for electronic music. I'm pushing several US labels to do this and it's taken some time since many just don't think internet sales will help electronic music. I think it will, and if you have similar ideas, contact me. I'm doing this almost every day now, and I already have some major artists signed up to do this (not many..but a few you've definitely heard of..) They don't have to spend any money to repress it, it would be available only to people who want it on the the net on a customized cd. They might have to spend some cash on advertising, but that's about it. People can do this legally out there, but it's ridiculous to charge $40 for a customized cd. We'll be charging $1 per track. And the label gets a percentage of every sale. I've had a 50% success rate, but it's just a matter of convincing them it will work at this point. If anyone has some label/a&r experience, please let me know since this is a hard battle!

There were two other terms used regularly, one called "fubar" ("F***ed Up Beyond All Recognition), and one other I can't remember. Warner Bros. animation studio (those who brought us Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and co.) did a series of cartoons for the armed forces during WWII, based around a character named "Private Snafu." Most were written by Theodore Geisel, better know as Dr. Suess, of all people. To make this Orb related, I was just wondering about the remix of Tangerine Dream's "Towards the Evening Star." I had read (on the TD website, I think) that Edgar Froese of TD was really upset about the whole deal, since he wasn't consulted over it. I know that TD gets kinda crunchy about others doing stuff with their work, especially when they (quite rightly, IMHO) sued Jon Anderson of YES over his unauthorized vocals being sung over one of their songs from the Legend Soundtrack. Kinda sad, but I WOULD love to hear an Orb remix of some of the Virgin-era Tangerine Dream--especially something like Rubycon or Force Majeure.... Anyone hear of any plans to do something like this?

And I thought that most commercially available music was garbage because of "tin-earred graph paper brain accountants" WITHIN music corporations and MTV! Little did I suspect that McDonalds and Texaco would eventually jump into the picture. I guess at the very least it doesn't say, "U.S. Government Inspected," although if that Billy-Boy gets impeached, and Al Gore becomes President of the U.S., Tipper Gore might decide to resurrect the PMRC and its monstrous offspring.... Where's Frank Zappa and the Dead Kennedys when you need 'em? I dunno...corporate sponsorship of music really bothers me, unless it is in some way truly responsible for the music and art envolved. For example, the Orb/Korg ad is cool, and liner notes in David Arkenstone's cds saying that "David Arkenstone uses only Ensonq keyboards" is fine. I think I feel that way because I don't see those companies trying to hinder the artists in their work; in fact, the more "creative," the better, since the artist, in turn, demonstrates the versitility of the product(s) used. However, if companies like Fischer-Price (the toy manufacturer) start sponsoring music, I can only see that HINDERING the artists, since they would undoubtedly lay down restrictions. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but the whole thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Most record stores over here have a copy every now and then. As to it being "outstanding"...I'd have to disagree. The entire thing sounds like it was recorded in mono, and it tends to get very repetetive after a while. I wouldn't recommend spending a large amount of money on it...unless you MUST have everything with Alex's name on it.

But it would appear that the Towers of Dub (ambient mix) as on Anthology, is in fact the same as the Towers Of Dub (Original Mix) as on U.F.Off. Other than the fact that the U.F.Off version begin as mixed together from end of Mickey Mars and is seems short a couple seconds of the opening sample (the doctors) and the fact that the U.f.Off version is 10:23, whereas Anthology version is 10:17, it seems to the the same mix. Any thoughts on this? The implications of this are not too tremendous. However if they are the same, then it would seem a little inappropriate to have the Ambient Mix from Anthology available for download when there is the same available on a current release. Anyone with input on this, please contribute to this.

These mixes are haer for you to listen to. If you come acrossed a disc/lp/etc.. that has stuff that the OAA holdes, BUY IT! We have an honer system going on with the OAA.. we want to keep it that way. Nice and easy. So please, if you see a copy of Anthology 1 sitting at a local shop, dont go home and download the mp3s, make a cdr, and never buy the copy in the store.

Granted. Of course, I don't think anybody's going to not buy the CD just because they were able to obtain two tracks that appear in edited form on it... Then again, as I said, this will be a pointless argument in a few months. Also note that I don't run the site, so I have no control over what's on it. :) > is this the version with no fun on it? i've seen it in Virgin records here > in SF, amoungst other places, so once again, i'd be happy to keep my eyes > open for anyone in need of this - send me an email and i'll see what i can > find over the next couple weeks. Holy shit! I'm starting to think that either the west coast stores are just way better, or nobody on the west coast listens to good music, so it all sits in the stores forever unloved and unwanted. :) I tried over 25 used stores and 4 big new ones (HMV, Tower, Newbury Comics, etc) in Boston and over 30 independent stores as well as BOTH virgin megastores in NYC and never once saw that damn record.

(although maybe i'm the only > one out there who's unsatisfied with a cd if it isn't accompanied by yummy > artwork!) and i think its REALLY generous of everyone, especially the folks No way! I always feel the same way! I'd way rather have an orig than some shitty CD-R with handwritten tracklisting, no liner notes, no artwork, etc... Plus there's the fact that somehow some CD's that you can get have over 74 minutes of music and hence are not exactly prime candidates for CD-R copy. Any else wonder how the fuck they do that?! I have a garage comp. that has 87 mins of music!!! And my cd player will still play it. > donating the bandwidth and server, etc., but i just hate thinking that the > people who like the orb the most are the ones who are also ripping them > off... I also think that "ripping off" is subjective. As I said, I'd be surprised if people would change their mind about buying the album if two tracks out of 24 or whatever are avail in MP3... I dunno, could just be me. I've had all the tracks except for Mickey Mars (I think) on U.F.Off for a while but that didn't stop me from pre-ordering a copy.

I immediately put SALT on the disk player and proceeded to seek through the extended sample regarding wormwood and the apocalpyse, my girlfriend eyeing me with utter confusion. As soon as I explained myself she had discounted my theory that this was the origin of the sample so talked about. We decided to move on to another show, but returned to watching the movie within an hour, and there it was "what does this specific prophecy mean...." I jumped from my seat, scaring my girl to a near stroke and went right to SALT. Ah, the sweet satisfaction of identifying this "ubiquitous" sample. Just wanted to share my find, and was wondering if anyone else had found this out. btw: the movie was more bizzarre than I could have imagined; the sample hardly even begins to explain.

Date: 19 Oct 1998 10:58:04 +0100 I actually had a really wierd dream about the orb. I was a dream that I had before but on the first time of having it, I didn't get as far in in for some reason, the story line was that I was at an orb gig and suddenly just before they start I feel sick and decided to go home. I then wake up. On the second time of having the dream, after feeling sick, I then actually stood in the car park, which just happened to be below a mountain top that I was standing on. I waited for a while and then when my lift home arrived I decided to go back and watch the peformance. When I got back the gig zoomed by in seconds yet I was some how able to pick out some rather excellent versions of outlands and LFC. Hmmm, how I love dream-control. . .anyway, they then had a little break and came down to meet me and this other friend of mine, I can't remember who it was, but I have no idea what Thomas Fehlman (can't spell) looks like so he ended up turning out to be that long haird hippy guy from the X-Files, hmmm, it was really wierd, he told me that he was going to a pub later, a pub that I know quite well, in southampton.

I have NOT heard Mickey Mars yet, so I don't know which sample is used. However, I have both "Return to Innocence" by Enigma AND the Sacred Spirits cd. The sample used on "Return to Innocence" is NOT to be found anywhere on the Sacred Spirits cd. I listened to BOTH two nights ago.... Then again, the copy of Sacred Spirits that I have is a promo cd that was issued when the cd was first released several years ago. The LATER promos of Sacred Spirits had one or two tracks less than the original issue (my friend has the later issue), but replaced those with a new track or two. I haven't heard the newer tracks, so they MIGHT be the same as Enigma's.... But, to add to this problem, I don't THINK anything on Sacred Spirits are samples, per se--that is, the Native American songs we done exclusively for the Sacred Spirits album, whereas Enigma actually sampled their source. Does that make sense? I could be wrong about this, though.... I apologize if this was resolved before already. I didn't pay too much attention to all the talk about this last week! ;-) --Vince # 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: Chris Basford Subject: Re: (orb) OAA not so rare trax Date: 20 Oct 1998 11:05:06 +0100 In message , Benjamin L.

Thus, I also don't think this should be on the OAA. Incidentally, is the first "Peel Sessions" disc easier to find than "Peel 2" ? as I'm surprised that hasn't made an appearance on the archive. Especially as it contains, what I consider, to be THE definitive version of "A Huge Ever-growing...". Still, I fully support the bootlegs being there, especially as the boys get no money from them whatsoever and they are often extortionately priced. I would upload a double CD set of the Toronto gig from 97, but I pay for my telephone calls and am on a lowly modem link :( It does contain the finest sample ever though, the "alternative" version of "These are a few of my favourite things..." :) Anyway, thanks to the OAA I have the "Roskilde 97" gig on Mini Disc, so I am very glad it's back.

Maybe because the movement of the lil' blue thing is puzzling me beyond belief. I've made the object in 3D but darn it if I'm able to animate it.. Maybe I should give it a go again, afterall it's been a couple of years now. Of course I don't have the video for reference anymore... hm..

Date: 20 Oct 1998 10:44:53 EST5EDT Oh, one more bit of trivia about Enigma and the Orb: (This is really goofy, I know, but I couldn't resist!) Basically, I spent the entire weekend cleaning out my basement--lots of old papers from high school and college (Heaven knows why I was saving all of it--most of it was moldy by now, anyway....) Anyway, I found a bunch of music that I had kept, including a bunch of Gregorian chant notations. To make a long story short, Enigma uses a Gregorian chant on the song, "Mea Culpa," which appears on their first album. I HAVE the Gregorian chant notation from this particular chant (from a Harmony & Counterpoint class I took my senior year in college), and the name of the particular chant is: Kyrie from Mass XI (Orbis Factor). Just thought some of you might find it amusing.

One last time (although I am certainly in no position of authority in legal matters) for y'all: The problem with posting stuff to the archives that is IN PRINT is a.) the artist (in this case, our friends Alex, Andy, Thomas, et al) does not get paid, and b.) the record label (and its attorneys) could sue the bejesus out of the "responsible party".... This MIGHT be comparable to copyright infringement. (You know, that phrase that states, "This work may not be rebroadcast, lent out, etc....") Which begs the question...: Yeah, even the stuff that is out of print is ALSO "protected" by copyright laws. But I think I remember Smiley (or someone) saying that the Orb didn't mind the out of print stuff being posted, since they weren't going to make any money on it anyway. BUT, this isn't to say that their record label won't get pissed about it, assuming they own the copyright. Just some thoughts on this subject. Note: I am NOT making any moral judgments (or judgements, for our UK friends) on this one way or the other--I'm just stating why it would be difficult to post in-print Orb material to an archive...a precaution, if you will....

Not the same sample, or even the same group, but the same song. :) If you listen carefully, the words and melody are the same in many parts but the man/men performing the chant is/are different.

As a side note to this debate, remember that Island Records is also U2's label and even though the band members themselves weren't all that bent out of shape about it, the label nonetheless unleashed its attorneys on Negativland for their "U2" EP back in the 80s and prevailed. I'm not trying to dissuade anyone from putting the out-of-print stuff on the OAA (although I am saying that even though LX and Andy might not mind, that has little or no impact on Island's potential reaction), but watch out if you start putting U.F.Off and other easily obtained stuff in there...

They can't claim that they're being ripped off if they get no money from the sale of the item in the first place.

Even though no money is being made from the CD, becasue all copies have been sold out. The record Label still owns the rights and license to that recorded material. By redistributing the material, you are infringing on thier copyrights, because one. you didn't ask thier permission. two. They are not making any money off something they own. Once you start redistributing their material.. even if out of print, they can sue you for not paying a licensing fee (not royalty fee, thats a different matter), even if you aren't making any money. Case In point, John Osborn's Plunderphonics CD. Osborn created a CD made out of sampled material and created it into a sonic collage, samples from all over from michael jackson to james brown and more... He gave the CD away, didn't even attempt to sell a single CD. And he was sued, all his product was siezed and destroyed, because he never cleared his samples with the publishers. One thing to remember, there are two copyrights when it comes to recorded material. There is the written song copyright, which is usually owned the Artist or his publishing company. And there is the Physical Recording copyright, which pertains to the actual data recorded onto a CD. The Recording copyright is usually held by the Label. So even if you get permission from an artist to use thier out of print recordings, you still have to get permission from the record Label that owns those recordings. There is a really interesting article about this kind of stuff and samples in the current Electronic Musician Magazine. I recommend checking it out. If you'd like to learn more.

The real problem is, as you said, we all know it's illegal, but every time it's mentioned, someone tries to justify it and posts that they think there's a loophole, or whatever. That misinformation has to be corrected, because it can get people into a lot of trouble if they don't know what they're getting into.

If you're so concerned about whether or not this is illegal, 1. don't download anything so YOU aren't breaking any laws, and 2. Give Island a call and ask them -- I bet they will have an answer for you. If you're like me, your probably plowing through countless emails about legal issues with MP3's while you're downloading a couple MP3's in the background! I know what I'm doing is illegal, I also know there are hundreds of thousands of people all over the world doing the exact same thing right now, and I also know I've spent well over $1,000 on Orb music in the past few years -- believe me, somebody got paid from me already, and finally, I already own almost all the music on the OAA anyways, it's just easier for me to d/l them than ripping and encoding to have these tracks on MP3. You want a bunch of cool Orb music? Shut up and start downloading. You want to beat a dead horse and discuss whether or not this is illegal? IT IS, now shut up and start downloading. You better hurry before the site comes down because someone who cares catches on after seeing 200 posts on the list about the legalities of the OAA.

I seem to remember somebody saying this was, infact, a remix of "Towers of Dub", I guess this explains why it never made sense to me.

Should I buy I 'mdh' CD just for the remix? I orderd this online, thinking that it was an Orb CD,and I've heard it mentioned here and there. The music is kinda offbeat, humorous folk music I guess. The Orb remix is kinda interesting, reminds me of some of the Beatles warped lapeloop symphonies, like in Revolution #9, and Strawberry Fields Forever. Overall... I've listend to the disc only once. If anyone is interesed I'd be willing to trade for it.

May" Subject: Re: (orb) mindless drug hoover Date: 21 Oct 1998 11:08:43 -0400 (EDT) It's really funny, and a much better version than the original, but in terms of being a good orb track.... I dunno... If you're a hardcore collector go for it, but otherwise don't bother. > Has anybody heard the re-mix that Orb did for 'mindless drug hoover' - & > if so whats it like?

Should I buy I 'mdh' CD just for the remix? This is quite a funny song, but it certainly not normal Orb fair. It is a more of a alternative or folksie song (with vocals). The Orb remix definately has their mark on it however. The lyrics are quite funny and good for those involved in the "drug" subculture, although im sure we have nobody like that on this list. *cough* john goerner johng@usgravitics.com " Better Living With Gravity " *advertising * I have an extra one of these singles available for trade (among some other things).
