Date: 03 Jan 2000 10:19:22 EST Hey all, Now that the list is dormant (hehehe) let's talk about some Orbital, shall we? Or, at least the Hartnolls themselves... Alright, first off, I read in some music magazine that Phil Hartnoll is a vegan. Now, is there any truth to that? If so, how long has he led this lifestyle? Does that mean that he's drug-free as well? As a drug-free vegan (if that's the case) what does he think of his brother? I heard Paul isn't exactly drug-free, meandering around London and stuff....... I'm just interested in whether Phil is a vegan or not, and how he relates with his brother. Oh yeah, sorry if this offends anyone. I have nothing against veganism, and I actually agree with much of what they say. Finally, is there any truth to the rumor that Jack Dangers of Meat Beat Manifesto tried to get Orbital to co-headline a tour a few years back, and only "vegetarian groups" would be on the bill?

You're right, of course. But the trouble with doing everything "virtually" is that eventually it gets really tedious doing everything inside the computer. You don't need "real" instruments or a mixing desk or anything, but it's a lot more fun! You can spend hours coming up with weird analogue effects and twiddling knobs on "physical" machines; on the computer everything so sodding pristine... it can get really boring.

We have our own commericialized raves in Louisville, thank you. (And I'll never pay $25 dollars to go to a fucking warehouse rave again...nor any other Evolution rave.) Plus, I can go to a THREE-DAY rave for US$20. (Interstellar Dreamfest kicked ass!) Two, anybody that advertizes "ROAR" is usually up to something. Saying no drugs (yeah, whatever! :) and bad attitudes is one thing (it's tradition), but saying ROAR is just something that doesn't need to be said. Everybody knows the rules and if they need to be told not to act like an asshole, then we don't need them in the scene anyway. Three, what the hell is wrong with markers? Of course, this is my own damn opinion.

Date: 10 Jan 2000 15:13:15 -0500 Well, this list is kinda dead right now, so I'll ask a question or two. Does LTJ Bukem have any good non-mix albums? I find that his choice of other musicians usually sucks, but he himself does some fine D&B. (Of course, I'm only judging it with Logical Progressions, but it's a double-album at least.) Also, what exactly is Trip-Hop, IYO? I hear a lot of different definitions of trip-hop, from instrumental hip-hop to toned-down D&B.

Venue Organizers will provide to the Municipal Licensing and Standards Division (MLS), Urban Planning and Development Services Department, a list of commonly-used venues. The Department will co-ordinate checks of these locations to ensure that they are appropriately zoned. This will be communicated to the operators. For new venues, organizers will be required to submit to MLS details of a= ny proposed location. MLS will undertake to check zoning, and the organizers will be advised of the results within two days of the date of notificatio= n. Upon confirmation of appropriate zoning, the organizer must submit a repo= rt from an architect or engineer that the venue complies with applicable Building Code requirements. No report will be required for venues already legally zoned and used for Assembly Occupancies. Fire Services will verify compliance and confirm occupant load. Organizers are cautioned that they must build sufficient lead time into their own process to recognize that some locations submitted for review w= ill not be appropriate for various reasons. There will be a fee for individual venue review, in the order of $125.00. [Note - Although this procedure seems onerous, it is important to note th= at this process will ONLY be required when promotors are using a never-before-used "virgin" venue. It is our hope that the promotors of Toronto will work together to "legalize" new venues when they become available.] 2. Density The safe occupant load, as determined by the above noted review, will establish the "cap" on ticket sales. Organizers agree not to sell tickets= or admit participants over the number allowed by the occupancy permit. 3. Water Organizers will make arrangements so that patrons will have unrestricted access to a supply of running water, at no charge. 4. Toilets/Portolets Organizers agree to provide toilets as per existing legislation. 5. Fresh Air Organizers agree to provide adequate ventilation as per existing legislation. 6. Food If food is served, it will be served as per existing legislation. 7. Smoking No smoking as per existing legislation. [Note - This section relates to the City-wide "no smoking" by-law that is scheduled to take effect in the year 2004. So, when smoking becomes banne= d in all restaurants, bars and clubs, smoking will also be banned at indoor "rave" events.] 8. Security One bonded and OPP licensed security for every entrance location (secure = the site) and one for every 100 patrons. 9. Paid Duty Officers As a guideline, for raves in excess of 500 patrons, there will be a minim= um of two Paid Duty Officers (PDO's), and a ratio of one per 500 patrons. Ba= sed on a review of the location and availability of private security, the commander of the appropriate police division may amend this guideline. Note: Police cannot, by providing PDO's, tacitly endorse events which in = any way do not meet legal requirements. 10. Ambulance Services For raves with more than 1,000 patrons, the promoter will contract with Ambulance Services for the provision of paramedical services during peak hours (minimum four hours). 11. Drug/Health Education All organizers will provide space for community-based drug and health education projects. The specific project to provide services will be at t= he discretion of the organizer. Organizers agree to donate a portion of prof= its to non-profit drug/health education projects of their choice. This contribution is not intended to replace adequate city funding of drug/hea= lth education projects. 12. Communications Organizers will communicate to appropriate city authorities the confirmed location and the estimated maximum number of patrons for an event at leas= t one week in advance of the event. This will, in turn, be communicated by = MLS to the offices of those Ward Councillors who have requested such notification. 13. Definition of a Rave A rave is a public, all ages, commercial electronic music event held in a special event venue attended by ticket or pass holders generally extendin= g into hours when entertainment venues are usually closed. 14. Review of Requirements These standards will be reviewed periodically. Such a review will include organizers of various-sized events, patrons, and other key stakeholders s= uch as security companies, venue owners, and health projects and will include options such as licensing of rave organizers. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Ian Mahuron" Subject: RE: (orbital) ooh crickey, wot a scorcher! -- feb 5th Date: 10 Jan 2000 13:51:31 -0800 I read through the regulations..

At about 2 hours after I paid my $25, the cops and fire marshall showed up and shut down the party because Evolution didn't have a permit. Of course, there was no refunds and they made a shitload of money for a cancelled concert. Do you know what the sad thing is? Most people blamed the cops. For once, they were just doing their job. Evolution has been a corporate load of bullshit. They prey on the newcomers and unwary to soak as much money as they can get. The whole thing has prompted me to eventually start a non-corporate, public web site for the Louisville rave scene called Louisville PLUR Association (www.lpa.org). I'll probably start it in April or so.

I dunno for sure, but i think lots of the stuff on logical progression is from him.. also make sure to grab progression sessions, that one rocks aswell! I find the stuff he chooses for his own mixes VERY good, just Earth 1-3 isn't great, however the album said that his aim in this was to give unknown good musicians a way to distribute their music by using his fame. From what i figured that is the ONLY reason why his name is on the cover! 8) As for single tracks that he made himself, these are pretty rare i'd say, i have a few of them here like Atlantis, Music, Cosmic Interlude, Demon's Theme, Horizons and Moodswings (that's pretty much it, atleast for my Bukem-collection! <:-) Ah yes, almost forgot, and i do have this mixtape from him that i bought from some 'mobile bootleg'-dude (who was arguing already back then with some American about what Jungle really was! 8) Brendan, any Chance you were in London in August 94? 8) on Camden Market way back in 94 (when DnB had just been invented right there! 8) It was pretty exciting!

It starts off with the poem that (what an american friend told me) some black lady poet read on Clintons Inaugural Speech ("A rock, a river, a tree..") and it TOTALLY kills cause it blends so nicely with the music!

Pretty much anything, basically, the definition always was too vague to really tell, i mean with DnB you have the Breakbeats and you have the bass, fairly easy to say, but if you say genre X with influence Y it tells you shit cause any genre in itself varies too much so a synthesis of both can NEVER be classified specifically which you, as we all know have as your favourite pastime!.. >;-D So i guess Triphop will stay a pain in the ass for your collection since it can't be classified! 8) You really should start sorting it after other criteria, e.g. how much you like it, or if it's laid back/chillout, freak out or happy sounding which i like to do as it allows you to choose the music you feel like listening to right now! 8) Brendan, didn't we have the Triphop discussion already? 8) I kinda feel like it, but it might have just been one of the other COUNTLESS genre discussions you have brought up! >;-P > (You guys hate me for bringing up another definition argument, don't you? :) > Yes! 8) DeeKay # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Ihastarla@aol.com Subject: (orbital) jungle...

For good trip hop, look to the Ninja Tune label. Even Mo Wax has some trip hop. People Like DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, The Herbaliser, etc. Yes Massive Attack and Portishead are also trip hop. Trip hop is pretty much defined as anything that has a hip hop styled (usually break beat) beat that is some what slow and is not made for dancing. And it is usually made electronically, but not always. That is a definition of Trip Hop. Anything that falls under that could (emphasize could) be called trip hop. It is not as specific as a lot of people think it is. Some people will even call groups like Fila Brazillia and Unkle trip hop. Even some Ae/Gescom can be called trip hop. And this is not just my opinion, this is the general census that I have gotten after hearing many trip hop compilations put out by Ninja Tune and other labels.

There was a great atmosphere at the event as soon as we arrived 7pm ish, everybody seemed in a good mood even though there didn't seem to be much drugs running around (at least quite a few people complained about it). Nobosy cared it was the Millennium and they we're going to enjoy themselves. The cloak room/tent was a waste of time, you had to queue up in the rain for over an hour to use it - easier to just wear it or wrap it round your waste. Space, Lightening Seeds and Stereophonics all had a great reception but who cares about poppy guitar bands? Next one on was Paul Oakenfold a toss pot local DJ who put on a few commercial dance records. Cream people are very much into to this DJ worship and overground dance culture. Not exactly my cup of tea. Orbital finally took the stage at 11:30 and launched into Impact. the music wasn't really loud enough and they had the ceiling lights up a bit too bright. A good Orbital gig should be just the bands screens and lights and a lot louder so it all just buries into your head. The DJ worship crowd didn't seem to get what Orbital are about, so the vibe when they were playing wasn't as good as it had been earlier in the evening and not as good as previous Orbital gigs I've been to. The played Halycon next which the crowd enjoyed, then Know Where To Run (I think - memory of it is fading) then went into Dr Who another crowd pleaser when the beat kicked in. They finished playing and a minute countdown apeared on the 6 screens. Everybody just when crazy! A whole minute of 35,000 people just screaming at the tops of their voices. At zero 2000 with fireworks flashed up the screens for a few minutes (no actual fireworks went off). After a few minutes they started to really long mutated version of Chime. After that a switch back to 1999 for Satan. They finished off with Style (a bad choice I think as it's a bit of a weak track for a dance crowd). The brothers left and it was DJ's for the next 6.5 hours, if you could stomach it. That was it, no planetary meltdown, no Jesus coming down from heaven! Just an average gig with the wrong crowd, but that's just my opinion. Not the best I've seen them but still a good night out.

There is a big article and interview with P&P as well as a run down of their equipment in their studio. It's perhaps the first time I've ever seen a picture of Phil when he doesn't have great black circles around his eyes. It was interesting to read that they've replaced a load of vintage synths (Roland SH-09, Jupiter 6,et al) with newer machines like the SuperNova, JP-8000 and Korg Z1. (The JP-8000 has got to be the best synthesizer in the world)! It was a gas to know that they use virtually the same machines I do in my tiny recording studio. They seem to be very likeable and modest. Not at all like the majority of other techno musicians out there (did I say techno? Uh-oh). Anyway, read up, folks. Its a good article.

Cream 2000 Date: 13 Jan 2000 21:30:37 -0000 All, It appears to be ages since i have done anything constructive on here...so i wont change a thing ;) Cream 2000 - I arrived at approx 10pm - got very wet walking 15 minutes to the entrance. Couldnt find any security/steward who knew where i exchanged my ticket for a wristband (that will teach me to have a freebie). About 30 minutes later and i lot dirtier (mudbath walking in and out of the main tent) i find someone who gives me a wristband but also tells me "F***ing hell mate - Chill Out ). Orbital come on stage...right down the front to the left. Glow-sticks everywhere...no wonder its light in here :) "Impact" - nice - "Know Where to Run" - meaty - "Halcyon" - with the BJ/BC samples , crowd love it...because it fits well with the Cream image i guess (sorry - i really wish they would stop doing this joke now) - Dr Who - more samples from the tv series, more humph (if you know what i mean) - perfect ending...it last ages - Year 2000 kicks in - crowd go mental...seriously mental :))) Chime - unusual start - i remember thinking...wtf...it seriously didnt sound right at the time and nothing like the Ally Pally gig but listening on the radio broadcast...it was similar but slightly different (dunno how to describe it so i will leave at that). Bigpipe Style....i also thought this was a bad choice to end...but the crowd liked so maybe thats why they put it on the setlist. Pete Tong arrives - his mike doesnt work - you cant hear his music at the beginning - he tries to say "Happy New Year" 3 times but nothing is heard - fantastic - LOL :)))) Blagged (honest...) my way backstage and spent an hour with the Orbital clan before leaving the dj sets for another day...then i had a good drink and celebrated :) What a good way to see the new year in - Orbital that is....forget Cream :) Steve LOOPZ Price Orbital Zine www.loopz.co.uk # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Brandon Invergo Subject: (orbital) cd-rs Date: 13 Jan 2000 19:17:52 -0800 (PST) im gonna keep this brief cause i know it was a huge discussion before. could someone please send me *privately* a ranking of sorts of the different colors of cd-r's and the different brands. my girlfriend's goin nuts not knowing which one's to buy. i just remember ricoh golds being reccomended last time. yeah and i'm pissed cause u-Ziq is coming to town february 5th...21 days before i'm 18, and it's an 18 or older show. anyone wanna pretend they're my legal guardian??? grrr.... have fun all brandon i've listened to bt too much for my own good recently...mercury and solace __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I'll mostly be playing Orbital type stuff, but I'll probably play some more energetic things too (ie. house, trance, etc.). You guys can check it out on the web broadcast (wpi.edu/~radio), and I think it uses RealPlayer. If you want to make requests, the number is 508-831-5955. The neat thing is, if you want to know what a song is, you can call and then get it off of my ftp site (msawaya.res.wpi.net, user/pass:bobo). I'll probably start my show a week from today, but I'll keep the list posted if you guys are interested.

Just got it yesterday, so I wouldn't know completely yet, and his style is kind of undescribable so far. It's got a diverse range of rhythm ranging from the nearly slow d'n'b of "Please forgive me" to more piano-like ballads "This Year's Love" and some songs that I could usually classify as pop. But the lyrics are good. I think I also have to agree that the original mix of "Please forgive me" is better than the PH remix. Maybe because of the intensity of the looping bassline in PH's mix, but both are good though and I wish I had my record player so I could listen to the 12" a bit more too. But until then I will certainly enjoy the David Gray cd.

Date: 20 Jan 2000 07:38:19 -0000 Hi Gang, First off happy new years to all.....all the best for Year 2G. A brief history before I ask two *SILLY* questions.....I live in Vancouver, Canada and have been listening to Orbital for about 2 years now.......our radio stations Do NOT even come close to playing any of this type of music, so I don't know much about the whole "electronic" genre. #1 - Exactly what type of music is Orbital?? I've heard all the types mentioned here....house, trance......blah blah.....but what is Orbital? I really like the sound I'm listening to and just want to know what the hell it is! :) #2 - What other bands/groups would fall into the same class and sound as Orbital? I purchased an Orb CD and find it pretty lame......I acquired a few Future Sounds of London mp3's and find those good, but after previewing a FSOL CD at a shop, found that particular CD not even close to the same sound. Very confusing. If you took the time to read this and respond......thanks alot!

If the old style leads only work thru vibration, > what's so differant about these? From what i figured you wondered how a SP/DIF connection differs from a normal audiocable? Imagine it's like the old Coax Ethernets!.. Or a Cablemodem! It transmits the data digitally (just on or off), not analogue (any current depending on the audio signal) like the audiocable... And because it is digital, it needs to be shielded to avoid electromagnetic radiation from the outside to cause errors in the bits transmitted... It is only one lead because one shielded lead can transfer up to 10 MBit per second (maybe even more if better shielded!) and that's way more than enough for a stereo digital signal at 16Bit and 44,1kHz!.. (should be ~172kb per second if i calculated right!) This is also why sometimes they are not even shielded, just like ISDN cables that are also transmitting digitally but also at a very low transfer rate!..

Two things actually. First, and foremost, someone had sent me a patch for xfileget previously (the software that allows you to download original realaudio from sites). I need that again, please. If I knew who sent it, I would ask them specifically, but I really dont know. Second, I can convert from cd to mp3 just fine. But what about mp3 to wav and then onto cd. What is the quality of that, what is a good freeware/shareware program for that? At what kbps should a mp3 file be to be good when it is churned out into .wav format? I have files that are 256 kbps, and I am using Musicmatch's Jukebox which lets you record at 96 kbps (near cd quality, they call it) and I think it sounds fine. But thats on my crappy speakers. I have friends who want to get mp3's they have to be burned into cd format. Any help would be appreciated. And to be helpful, there is a program called napster. It links you with many people who share mp3's. And with this one, you can get the files when these people are online, so you dont have to guess. You will either get them or not, no dead links really.

If you change the output settings from your sound device to a wav file and then just play the song like you would normally, it will act like it's playing but actually save to a wave file. The wave to cd part can be done with just about any CD-R software I would imagine. They usually have an option to create a cd audio disc and then just add the wav files...

I purchased an Orb CD and find it pretty once upon a time there was a "stopped clock" webpage that had a list of groups that orbital fans were into - at the time i found it useful for locating new electronic artists. anyone know of anything like this that might still be around somewhere? i know it has taken me a long time to figure out what stuff i like and don't like, and i'm still learning. keep your eyes and ears open i guess. mailing lists are a good place to pick up bits of info here and there. but in response to your question, i'm not sure anyone really "sounds like" orbital. orb and fsol are more abstract usually, less music-oriented. (which orb cd did you buy? they tend to vary a lot - i like orblivion and adventures... but the others i'm not so thrilled about. same with fsol - look for the cascade ep, that's probably my favorite). as far as groups that are similar stylistically, i'd say underworld is in the same ballpark. hmmm... nothing else springs to mind. i could list people _i_ like (mu-ziq, aphex, jega, boards of canada, autechre, etc.) but none of them really "sound like" orbital, even though they are all considered "idm". uhhh... so anyone else wanna help this guy out? who sounds like orbital? pointless post, i know. but i felt those questions deserved some sort of answer. take it easy, nub # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: =?iso-8859-1?q?Steve=20Price?= Subject: (orbital) Loopz/Orbital - ORBITAL NEW SINGLE - news online at Loopz Date: 21 Jan 2000 11:22:45 +0000 (GMT) Http://www.loopz.co.uk Updates on the website are below including news of the NEW SINGLE from Orbital.

Date: 22 Jan 2000 10:30:37 -0000 Aggggggggggh! Nooooooooooooooooo! : (From : http://www.nme.com/newsdesk/20000121114245.html) : ORBITAL TEAM UP WITH 'TITANIC' STAR ORBITAL have teamed up with Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio on a new track called 'Beached' - and it's set to be released as a single on February 28 through London. Leo provides spoken vocals on the song which makes up the soundtrack to his new film 'The Beach'. The track is Orbital's own interpretation of Angelo Badalamenti's score for the new movie, due out on February 11. Badalamenti's previously worked on the films of David Lynch, including writing the music for 'Twin Peaks', and with James lead singer Tim Booth. However, the released Orbital single doesn't actually appear in the film. The single features a radio edit of 'Beached', plus a full version of the track, which is different again from that featured on the original 'The Beach' soundtrack, which is an edit by Pete Tong. The third track is another brand new Orbital song called 'Doctor, Lookout!'. Orbital are now working on their sixth album, the follow-up to 1998's 'The Middle of Nowhere'. As yet untitled, it's slated for a summer release and is rumoured to show yet another "shift in sound" for Orbital. Meanwhile, 'The Beach' soundtrack is released through London Records on February 14. It features a host of specially recorded tracks including Leftfield's 'Snakeblood', 'Brutal' by New Order, 'Eightball' by Underworld, 'Return Of Django' by Asian Dub Foundation, 'It's Business As Usual' by Barry Adamson and All Saint's new track 'Pure Shores', the first single from the film, which is released on February 7, also through London Chris Basford E-mail : chris@g3vkm.demon.co.uk ICQ : 41233978 # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Trym Asserson" Subject: Re: (orbital) The Beach Orbital-track recorded recently Date: 22 Jan 2000 16:21:49 GMT >ORBITAL TEAM UP WITH 'TITANIC' STAR > >ORBITAL have teamed up with Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio on a new track >called 'Beached' - and it's set to be released as a single on February 28 >through London. The little preview I got of it last night confirmed the worst, yes, DiCaprio provides spoken vocal, and just hearing the brat makes me sick beyond description. The melody however is cracking. I have got this track on tape if anyone wants to hear it. It was recently played on radio and my good mate Tom went through the effort to record it because he knows I like Orbital. So, thumbs up to Tom and hopefully by the end of the evening I'll have managed to get The Beach computerised.

Why am i telling this? Because, when i checked it out i felt SO reminded of Aphex or even more of Autechre, so if any of the Autechre fans on the list or anyone else (i know you will, Nemesis! 8) feel like doing something totally crazy, then grab a good c64 emulator (i STRONGLY suggest vice or CCS64 (www.computerbrains.com), load the 113kb file from ftp://utopia.hacktic.nl/pub/c64/Demos/pal/Wrath_Designs/DiscoCalculi.zip and load it in the emulator (select the .d64 -> press enter on the first .prg file on the disk or do it manually by typing 'load ":*",8,1 and run) and check it out!.. It's totally far out the visuals are so simple but still totally fascinating! 8) And the music is done on an almost 20 year old machine with 3 analogue voices, remember that!.. It sounds best on the real thing ofcourse, but i think for you guys an emulator is the choice to go! 8) My suggestions are (if i remember right!) 1,5,7 and 8 (you need to press these numbers when they are displayed on screen to get to the various tunes!)

Very confusing. Bah...it depends on if you like Ambient or not, on if you like The Orb. I recommend Orbus Terrarum. If you don't like that one, you probably don't like Ambient period. As far as FSOL, their latest one, Dead Cities, is, IMO, a lot better than previous ventures. Dead Cities is more of an upbeat/breakbeat-ish style, though still Ambient. Me? I'm picky about my Ambient groups. I usually only like it with complexities and lots of layers, but that describes a majority of my tastes. -- Brendan Byrd AKA SineSwiper (SineSwiper@ResonatorSoft.com) Computer techie, PERL hacker, and all-purpose Internet guru Resonator Software (http://www.ResonatorSoft.com/) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Digger Subject: (orbital) Blue Illusion??

Ick... you're kidding. I'm moving to Vancouver in about six months to go to university. No electronic music? That really bites. I remember hearing a lot of ACDC the last time I was out there. I guess it wasn't a fluke afterall :( > > Same here. Join the club. No electronica anywhere, except the raves > and the music stores. Though, I'll learned a lot in the past two or > three years. Hmm... Not everywhere has a major lacking of electronic music. Here in the Southern Ontario area (Toronto and its surrounding area) have a lot of "underground" shows. I can think of about five shows (mind you... they're in the middle of the night, and not exactly something I can listen to unless I'm pulling an all nighter...). Have you tried looking up the schedual on local university radio stations? Those are probably your best bet for electronic music on the radio. Or try the wonderful world of netradio. Off the top of my head I think of http://www.purerave.com They have a buch of stuff you can listen to, and I think a their server has at least one live stream you can access. There's also radio free underground, but the url escapes me off the top of my head. Anyone else know the url for that? For more "mainstream" music check out the livefeed realaudio of http://www.edge102.com or I think edge.passport.ca may still work too (they finally got their own domain) Between 9pm and 2am on friday and staturdays Eastern Standard Time. I think. If Toronto/New York is in a different time zone, please correct me? Anyway, between 9pm and 2am on fridays and saturdays (sunday is retro night) they play live to air from a club and I've noticed a few electronic songs sneak thru. But every week you can count on hearing nine inch nails, pop will eat itself, white zombie, some of the cure's more danceable stuff (they play their cover of purple haze a lot), and I'm pretty sure I've heard some Orbital. But I may have been dreaming ;) Anyway... Hope that helps anyone who's feeling a lack of electronic music in their area :) -Kelly # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Robert Schultz" Subject: (orbital) Posters and stuff.

I'd just like to point out that this "part-time DJ" started out playing old dub records and collaging them with 60's psychedelia - among other things - in a VIP room above a nightclub run by Paul Oakenfold. Paterson created sort of "homemade" ambient music, as these were the days before what we now know as 'chill out'.

Yea, hopefully will be able to take it to my server space tomorrow (Thursday) which means it'll be available from tomorrow morning UK time.

I'll do my best to persuade him to let me use some of the space on the disk though.

However, if you're still awake, read on :-) First, a coworker has a really good friend that works in upper management at Bose. He said he can "get me some stuff, just give him a wishlist." Now, I was looking at their product line, and I'm sure Bose encounters this often, but their speakers are MAD SMALL! I mean, I'm looking at the Acoustimass system, and it seems to be the best one for my price range and size of room (I guess). Now, has anyone here ever listened to a Bose system, and are they really THAT good? I'm looking for some input here, as I want to replace my shitty Cerwin Vega's with something good. I heard a while ago that Bose speakers aren't that loud at all, but they're very very clear, they they cover all areas of the sound spectrum. Can anyone help me out on that? Second, CJ Bolland. I saw him play earlier this year at Axis (also where Orbital played, and have some songs on the Satan eps) in Boston. It totally rocked my ass. I am aware he has a UK release called "Electronic Highway." I want this release, and am willing to make a trade for it, as it is probably quite rare by now, and I am unable to obtain it here. So, can someone help me out on this as well? Also, this is really asking for trouble, but he has other monikers as Sonic Solution and Ravesignal. That would be insane if I could get any material of that. I'm willing to hook anyone up nicely with whatever I can do. He played insane stuff at Axis, that I had never heard before, and I NEED to hear (and rock) to that stuff again. Thanks in advance to all!

I've had the set (one subwoofer and the two satellites) for about ten years and they have never given me problems. The placement of the subwoofer is key. In a corner you will get the most bass out of it, the further away it is from the corner the less bass. I have my satellites positioned on top my entertainment cabinet. The thing I like with these is the directional use of the top part of the speakers. The sound is very clean for the highs and lows of the entire speaker system. Of course, Orbital sounds quite impressive through them. In addition to those speakers, I have two three way Realistic Speakers (yuch, but they do the job). The twelve in woofers handle quite ok- I blew out one years ago and have since replaced it. Finally, I have two JBL's for my surround speakers. All in all the package is quite nice. Like I said, the Bose I have been very satisfied with. For their size, they pack quite a punch. As far as CJ B, get the disc, I like it a lot. All the songs are great. Not a bad one in the bunch. Hope that helps ya.

I heard a while ago that Bose > speakers aren't that loud at all, but they're very very clear, they they > cover all areas of the sound spectrum. Can anyone help me out on that? Bose speakers are famous for their unique bass formula. Bose, the founder, believed that the human ear had a weakness in the 50-150Hz range. All Bose speakers have an increased bass as that range. Some people think his formula is bullshit, but they are still top-notch speakers, in any case. I have a JBL speaker system that sounds good, but I've considered mixing it with a Bose bass amp. (First, I'd like to get some more powerful speakers. These damn tweaters pop too easily. I'm actually using my rarely-used fifth center speaker because my two front tweaters have popped again.) -- Brendan Byrd AKA SineSwiper (SineSwiper@ResonatorSoft.com) Computer techie, PERL hacker, and all-purpose Internet guru Resonator Software (http://www.ResonatorSoft.com/) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Nick King" Subject: (orbital) Orbital Live CD's Date: 29 Jan 2000 12:32:57 -0000 Hi, I've just rejoined the list after a hiatus of just over a year, so forgive me if this questions been asked many times before... ...Some time ago, Steve Price sent out a message saying that Orbital were pressing up about 500 Live CD's only featuring 5 tracks.

All the songs are great. > Not a bad one in the bunch. Hope that helps ya. Yeah, I'll second that motion. Great album. If you like 'Electronic Highway', you should also check out his 'Analogue Theatre' album which has a similar feel to it. Tough, pounding tracks. It also contains the excellent 'Sugar is Sweeter' track. Speaking of which, I seem to remember there being some sort of controversy about this one when it was released. Apparently he nicked the tune from a Prodigy track. Can't recall the exact details though. And on a similar note, has anyone noticed the similarities between CJ Bolland's 'Con Spirito' track and Vangelis' 'Heaven and Hell'? Anyone know what I'm talking about? - It's either a dodgy 'tribute' track, or a complete rip off! How on Earth does he get away with it? I have another question... it's quite silly... I apologise in advance... but I'm dying to ask... are the Hartnoll brothers related to the actor William Hartnoll who once starred as ... wait for it... Dr Who? Errr... this is my first post to the list, by the way. Hello everyone! I like Orbital! Cheers!

Date: 31 Jan 2000 01:33:07 -0800 Hey, I saw Tall Paul spin in a club in Vancouver, Canada over the week end and I have to say that I was very disappointed. He brought a little side kick along that spun the majority of his set for him. Paul spun for maybe like 20-30 minutes of his 2 hour set. Not only that, he played a lot of trance that has been played on every trance mix cd out there. And all of his house was rather boring minimalistic four four beats. I have his cd Duty Free, and it's not that bad. So, I was wondering, do big DJ's usually have someone else spin for them, and is Tall Paul usually good? I have seen Carl Cox, Seb Fontaine, Anne Savage, Lisa Lashes, John Kelley, Omar Santana, Tony Faline, and DJ Laidback, just to name a few, and they all spun their own sets.
