From: Eddie Lombardi Subject: Scotland/England/Amsterdam Date: 03 Jul 1994 15:08:27 -0400 I'm going to be in Amsterdam between Aug3 and 11. I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions about cool clubs, record shops, clothing stores and wahtever. I'll also be in Engalnd/Scotland anfter Aug 11. I don't know which city on whatdate but... I'd like suggestions again on clubs, shops, etc. Note: The clubs don't have to be these massively trendly places like say The Hacienda. I just want a club with good music. Preferably trance. Also does anybod know what Orbitals touring schedule will be like? I definetely have to see them again. Thanks Eddie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Eileen Whiteside Subject: Halcyon CD Date: 03 Jul 1994 15:34:50 -0400 (EDT) I recently purchased the US Diversions CD and in the liner it shows the Halcyon CD, as well as Orbital 1 & 2. I tried to order it through a record store, but they say it isn't listed in their catalogue. Could anyone tell me if this CD is available?

What torques me even more is the fact that I haven't seen hide nor hair of the SVHS version with FOUR PEOPLE on its list. Come on you losers! Copy the tape and forward it on! I'd appreciate hearing from the people who have already sent it so I can track down the idiot and beat them up myself. Then again, I converted Tape #2 last night and it blows Tape #1 out of the water. I'm considering sending copies to a select few well-behaved forwarders. The vid for "UFOrb" is swell. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: pashdown (Pete Ashdown) Subject: IDM video tape Date: 08 Jul 1994 11:23:54 -0600 (MDT) > Where's the IDM video tape??

King" Subject: Diversions Review Date: 14 Jul 1994 11:32:16 -0400 (EDT) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ORBITAL Diversions ffrr/PolyGram by JASON ANDERSON Six songs in 65 minutes. The Brothers Hartnoll remake/remodel (sometimes slightly, sometimes radically) songs from Orbital's last album, Orbital (not to be confused with Orbital's first album, Orbital). It's a fascinating example of intelligent techno and ... (In this dream, I'm walking through a verdant meadow in very large shoes. They're wingtips and they're not my size. I take a size 11 and these must be at least 10 times that. I feel puzzled and yet I am compelled to walk. Above me, I notice that the sun has taken on a pale green shade and black swirls dance in its very centre. I note that I am looking directly into the sun and yet my eyes do not hurt. I continue to walk, growing more and more fatigued at having to lift these huge shoes, which I now notice are the color of ox blood. Wait. They're not wingtips at all. They're brogues.) ... various bleeps and bloops go spinning around interminably. Orbital arrange songs as rigidly as groovy hippie-minimalist Steve Reich does and much of Diversions induces the same hallucinatory effects of Reich's Drumming. If you concentrate on hearing only the drums, you can find different levels, an almost bottomless arrangement of elements that are constantly reverberating and ... (In this dream, I'm walking through the sort of bombed-out urban landscape that Derek Jarman would've inevitably shot in Hi-8 then blown up to a larger size of film stock. Like that footage, what I see is grainy, as if I were walking through a newsreel of Dresden minutes before the firestorm. On my feet, the shoes are now my size. They are Keds.) ... apparently expanding geometrically.
