I was having an amazing time playing with everything. Blame me for being a big kid. ;) And we were having this amazing conversation on undernet #orbital about being a kid in the 80s and all the tv shows and everything. Not a bad Friday night. And then it got better. Midnight came, and rU Receiving? (think amp) came on muchmusic. They did the first set of videos. I can't remember the first one, then little fluffy clouds (I think that video sorta sucks.. never seen it before though.) then basscadet, then they went to commercial. Come back.. I think 'I've seen that building before'... HOLY SHIT! THEY'RE PLAYING THE BOX!!! I was in heaven. And you know why? 'cuz my first orbital 'experience' was seeing the box on muchmusic. I had it taped and everything. Then I taped over it 'cuz I decided it was too freaky. Then I fell in love with Orbital and decided I'd done a really stupid thing. And now I have it taped again.

On a website, I found an Aphex Twin song from 1972 called Hot Butter: Popcorn, there is a remix of it on Joyrex J4 under Caustic Window. It actually sounds preety cool, and the scarey thing is that it sounds more like late 80's music then early 70's music. Just more proof that Richard James is really from the future.

I know of the song Popcorn, by the group Hot Butter. I think RDJ may have done a remix (I'm not exactly a suprefan, I don't know fer sure) but I'm pretty positive that it wasn't him who wrote this.

Regards Andy ------- Forwarded Message Follows ------- Here's a list I put together a while back, mostly culled from this list's archives. Chime: "Mirror, Mirror," by MK (also sampled by Joey Beltram in "Energy Flash") The famous 'sample' on "Deeper" is a meditation tape to make people stop smoking that their mother gave to them (it obviously didn't work). Omen: "I've seen the future..." is from "How to Be a Millionaire," by ABC. The "LC1" sample about UFOs comes from a game show where people were asked how they would behave in strange situations. It's the host reading out a text. Satan: "Sweet Loaf," by the Butthole Surfers (based on Black Sabbath's "Sweet Leaf") One of my favorite songs is 'Belfast` and the sample from it really intrigued me. So I thought that I'd pass on the information I found out about it. The lady singing comes from the Hyperion release called 'A Feather on the Breath of God` Sequences and hymns by Abbess Hildegard of Bingen 1179 Hyperion CDA66039 "National security is more important than individual will," Open Mind (Funky Alternatives Mix): "Message from Our Sponsor," by Jello Biafra The Moebius (also Time Becomes): Star Trek: The Next Generation ("Cause and Effect" episode) "OOOOOLLLAAAAAA" - from the song of the same title. There is a musical version of War of the Worlds with Richard Burton, and the sound that the giant martian machines make sounds VERY much like the sound from the song (although it's spelled "Ulla" in the record's read-along liner notes). I even went back to check the record and tried sampling it myself because I was so surprised (It's weird to hear samples from obscure stuff like that, especially condsidering I loved that record as a kid and I didn't think anybody else had ever heard it). Oolaa, and I've checked on this one, is the name of the green-skinned dancing girl in Return of The Jedi. If you wathc the scene where she's dropped into the pit and devoured by the monster, you'll hear that the screams as she's eaten are the ones sampled at the beginning of the song. Desert Storm: Beneath the Planet of the Apes (Ted Post, USA 1969) Choice: Crucifix?/Jim Morrison? Halcyon: "It's a Fine Day," by Opus III (main vocal), "Leave It" by Yes (male harmony) The Naked and the Dead: "Next," by Scott Walker Planet of the Shapes: Withnail and I (Bruce Robinson, UK 1987) (also used by Ride in "Cool Your Boots") Walk Now...: Sydney, Australia crosswalk signal The sample on "Impact" comes from an old French film dubbed in English (Paul told me the name of it, but I can't remember it at the moment...) Laughter linking the first two tracks on the Peel Session EP: 'Life Is Sweet' (Dir. Mike Leigh, UK 1990) Speech in Forever: Britannia Hospital (Lindsay Anderson, UK 1982) Male voice, I Wish I Had Duck Feet: American freak show barker, recorded by a friend of the brothers' at Radio 4 "Are we here; are we unique," etc, Are We Here: from a documentary on the SETI Project.

I think it was '72. Actually, this could be right. It was on an Aphex Twin site, and it was with the Caustic Window bit, so I assumed that it was by Aphex Twin. It never actually said "written by Richard James" so maybe Hot Butter did the original version, and Richard James remixed it for the Joyrex J4 EP, that is probably more logical as well. Sorry for any false excitement that I may have caused, but I was excited too, and I didn't want to be excited on my own. cya morpheus # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Morey Gamble" Subject: Re: (orbital) A test Date: 06 Apr 1998 12:59:33 +0000 > << Everyone, please ignore this message.

What I said was: ** I found a bunch of 80's plastic toys and I thought my night was great. Then muchmusic played The Box and I was in heaven. Guys, thank you, you're incredible.

I screamed when I >saw the video for The Box come on. My first Orbital 'experience' was seeing The Box on much. I had it taped, but then I decided it was too freaky for me, so I taped over it. Big mistake. But.. now I have it again and I'm incredibly happy now. Thanks a million. Great show. Now how about playing another Orbital video next month? ;) ** This is the cool part.. what they wrote back... ** Thanks for the e-mail... I'll use Halcyon next month, since I haven't played it for a while. The show is on May 1st. John. ** WOOOHOOO!! So now everybody in Canada has to watch it, k? I really can't wait.

All AFX did was a remix of the original song, but he didn't do it back in '72.

I just got back from the Radiohead concert and they were so amazing. Everything was perfect except that 2 minutes into the first song, Thom Yorke decided to walk off the stage because the crowd was getting to rowdy. He came back on a moment later and did an awesome show, even though for the first couple of songs he seemed to have a stick up his ass because he was mad at the eager audience. But anyways, the show rocked anyways. I couldn't help but think of how awesome Orbital will be when I finally get to see them. (so I did get Orbital into this post, so there) And also, do you guys think that it is rude to sing at a concert? and also, do you think that a crowd should be more courteous and that Thom Yorke was in the right to walk off? I don't want this to turn into the whole whistle at shows bit, so mail me PRIVATELY to avoid a lot of arguements on the list.

What I said was: ** I found a bunch of 80's plastic toys and I thought my night was great. Then muchmusic played The Box and I was in heaven. Guys, thank you, you're incredible.

I screamed when I >saw the video for The Box come on. My first Orbital 'experience' was seeing The Box on much. I had it taped, but then I decided it was too freaky for me, so I taped over it. Big mistake. But.. now I have it again and I'm incredibly happy now. Thanks a million. Great show. Now how about playing another Orbital video next month? ;) ** This is the cool part.. what they wrote back... ** Thanks for the e-mail...

It's worth that (at least now the pound's strong), seeing as it's really an album with a Dark and Long theme throughout, rather than 6 versions of the same song.

Delerium is Bill Reeb and Rhys Fulber from Front Line Assembly (very techno-ish industrial). The two also have another side project called Intermix (which is similar to FLA). They have been releasing Delerium albums since about 1990 and there are 6 or 7 of them. I can't remember all the names, but the latest is called Karma. It came out last summer and is quite good. Almost every song is a collaboration with a different singer. There is at least one song (maybe 2) with Lisa Gerrard from Dead Can Dance, and one with Sarah Mclachlan which is excellent. They've released 2 singles from this album. The first is called "Euphoria (Firefly)" (i think) and the single has a rabbit in the moon mix. the current single is called Duende. The only other album of theirs I've heard is called 'Semantic Spaces" and it's pretty good, too.

There was a mention of this in an old Future Music interview with them. Sounds like that can actually be made in other ways than with a modular though. As for the panning, thats pretty easy to do via midi or with a half way decent effects box.

It's the most successful FLA side project. Their first albums are very dark gothic/industrial ambient that relies less on an actual melody but more on mood. Then, they released Spheres 1 and 2, which are ambient trancey synthy new agey type albums. Their latest 2 albums, "semantic spaces" and "karma", are excellent dance ambient in the same vein as Enigma/Deep Forest, but much much better, imho. >> Has anyone heard of a group called Delirium?

Pick up Tri Repetae++ and do yourself a great favor. >It's a great intro that includes a full release and two EPs. Then just sit back and let it GROW on you. I couldn't agree more. Tri Repetae++ is absolutely amazingly brilliant. Be sure you get the ++ version, not the normal version, or you will miss out on the brilliant eps included in the ++ release. Also check out their Incunabula album, totally excellent stuff. Other stuff I would mention: Aural Planet: Lightflow. For those into the tracker scene, this is from 3 polish guys: Scorpik, Key G & Falcon. I highly recommend this album if you can find it, but last time I knew, Scorpik was still looking for a distributor outside Poland, contact him at scorpik@kki.net.pl or planet@polbox.com. Banco de Gaia: Maya, Last Train to Lhasa, Big Men Cry. I absolutely love the stuff from this guy, ambient with a mix of ethnic, trance and dub. LTtL is especially awesome IMHO. Global Communication: 76:14. If you've never heard this album, then you've been missing out on quite simply one of THE best ambient albums ever. Get it. Shamen: Axis Mutatis/Arbor Mona Arbor Mala. This is the LTD Edition bonus cd version, the bonus cd is purely instrumental and I can't love it enough. Well worth getting if you can find it, if only for the bonus cd :) Amorphous Androgynous: Tales of Ephidrina. FSOL alter ego, cool stuff :) KLF: Chill Out. Just get it, ok? Deep Forest: World Mix, Boheme. if you're into Enigma, then check this out. Seefeel: Succour. If you like Autechre, then you might like this one :) Anyone heard the lastest album from him? FSOL: Lifeforms, Cascade ep. My fave FSOL cds. Accelerator is good too. Allister Brimble: Bang! Tick.. Tick... Cool stuff :) You can find it at www.lynnemusic.com at least :) Bjorn Lynne: Witchwoods, Dreamstate, The Void. all kinds of stuff, though Void is more in the prog.rock direction, still I would recommend those :) Mike Oldfield: Songs of Distant Earth. his best album IMHO. Stephane Picq: Lost Eden. Brilliant soundtrack to a brilliant adventure game. www.shooting-star.com for more info. Vangelis: 1492 (movie soundtrack), Antarctica. Very good Vangelis albums, China is also good. Black Dog Productions: Bytes. A classic. the Deseo Remixes. Jon Anderson (of Yes fame) gets mixed up with FSOL, Global Communication, Deep Forest & Trans-Global Underground. Can I say... wow? :) I think that should cover some parts of my collection at least ;) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ZenAngel7 Subject: (orbital) DIZ-easter Date: 12 Apr 1998 15:40:39 EDT I hate easter. no stores are open.

I doubt many of you have heard of Keith Jarrett, but he's an accomplished Jazz/Classical pianist. I've got several CD's of his live recordings, Paris Concert, Koln Concert, Vienna Concert, etc. But each of these pieces are completely improvised piano playing music from 40 minutes to over an hour in length. His music goes thru all ranges of emotions from the extremely intense, to soft tinkling of the keys.

Last week i got the Diversions EP and Underworld's Pearl's Girl EP. (for uw-stuff, read the dirtylist... i'm not gonna crosspost) They're both surprisingly US import. surprisingly, because i ordered them from http://www.1cd4u.com, and that company is UK/belgium based (and i live in belgium). About that Diversions EP: my understanding is that Lush 3-3 and 3-5 are made by underworld and cj bolland. but what's lush 3-4 warrior drift psychick warriors ov gaia? (only thing i can make of it is that gaia is a animal rights group in belgium that act sometimes like 'warriors', but methinks that's not the right explanation...) it's rather lengthy and uninteresting for something on an orbital EP. i found myself expecting each beat to hear something new in it, but it seems to just be looped through 'rebirth' (or offcourse the real stuff:303 and 808) what i do dig about Lush3 and all lush remixes, is that that sample always returns. euro tunnel disaster has it, underworld use it, and cj bolland incorporates it also... semi detached: anyone also having trouble with keeping the rhythm in the beginning? hard to dance on when it kicks off me thinks... i was rather being bored this easter weekend, so i spend some time reading old posts (i have em all since i joined this list, about a half year ago). and one threat was about orbital videos. and this saturday-evening (errr... make that sunday-morning) i saw for the *first* time the box full on mtv's chillout zone (nope, we on mainland europe have no amp or whatever... you find me each sunday morning between 3am and 5am lurking the tv-set with my vcr on, and a tape ready to tape anything that's interesting) in the 4-5 months i'm having this strange behavior, i've only taped 2 orbital videos: are we here? and the box... isn't it for crying out loud? another subject was t-shirts: at the time i didn't think i would wanted a non-official orbital t-shirt, bcuz i thought they weren't that hard to find... but well, people get older and wiser... so: when/where/how can i get (un)official orbital merchandise? or anyone in to do some original limited-edition t-shirts? hats? pants? shoes? condoms? (that would be cool: orbital condoms...) sunglasses? socks? or a laundry machine from the are we here video? that would be cool: "orbital: english quality laundry washers, use lesser water and electricity"... in fact, they maybe could run on beats... oh whatever... i love the shot of that plane lifting up and pulling up the gear in the are we here? video... ok, i'm now gonna write something to the dirtylist about the Pearl's girl EP... so catch ya later! flushing over & out from Wouter! http://bewoner.dma.be/whermans/ whermans@dma.be _________________________________________________ cr e a z on e w eb d ev e l opm e nt http://bewoner.dma.be/creazone/ creazone@dma.be # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "morpheus" Subject: (orbital) BL3CH Date: 14 Apr 1998 10:02:08 -0700 Hey, Off topic, but it's something for you to read, right? Has anyone listened to the Blech compilations off of Warp records? I've listened to two of them, one green the other pink, and I found the green one was really good (It has Autechre, AFX + aliases, Link, B12, Nightmares on Wax, etc.). It's all dj'ed up and the songs blend together nicely, perfect for a party or whatever. But the pink one has the same artists but they actually dj'ed it and mixed the songs together so that they are like new songs. This would be cool, if they didn't sound like Hip Hop instead of techno. Can you imagine Ventolin being mixed into the background of a rap song? because that is what one part is. When I first saw this cd I thought it would be awesome since the other one was good and this one had similar artists, but I was wrong. anyways, thanx for listening to my ranting comments welcome, but not to the list (private) cya morpheus # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "2faced_pirate" <2faced_pirate@eudoramail.com> Subject: (orbital) (No Subject) Date: 14 Apr 1998 10:32:59 -0700 the 2faced menace o'the seven seas is settin' sail... see ya when I get back --- 2faced_pirate - plotting his escape from his windowless crypt deep within the catacombs known to most as "Corporate America."

I was thinking as far as Warp goes....might be better off buying the Artificial Intelligence 1 compilation...which has a selection including Autechre and the Orb among others - thats what got me started on that route. Also a compilation called Ambient Dub Volume 2 (Earthjuice) on Beyond Records, which is really good and has a range of artists including Banco de Gaia and Higher Intelligence Agency....speaking of which, their first album "Colourform" is absolutley awesome in a darkened room with headphones on ! I get the occasional migraine too...for me this LP rates alongside 76:14 (Global Communication), very different from one another, both excellent.

I've noticed from several posts from Digger and Aimee that they talk about taking all these wild classes in high school that seem alien to concepts of a classical education regimen. Do they even teach Plato in school anymore or is that "old hat"? Aimee and Digger are lucky because they seem bright enough without the aid of more traditional classes. However, how about other students who take "media literacy class" instead of "philosophy" or "English" or that silly "history"?

I am 100% sure this is not an official video, and i don't even like it. all the colors are very pale and it represents "preserving the rainforest" (don't get me wrong, i'm all for it but not on this video) while the song is talking about oil spills and polluted water. except for the funky effect that I interpret as 'watching from below the surface', this video has nothing to do with water :) besides, if it was the real video...i would be the last person to catch it on tv. btw...if anybody remembers sasha (she's long gone from this list)... when the guy on tv announced the video, he said he's playing it for her. what a nice thing to do. btw2 WHEN'S "OUT OF THE WOODS" COMING OUT ALREADY ? 8-{ Daniel ::::::::::::::::: "[let it flow].[let it flow].[let it flow]" ---8<------------------------ [ http://www.seven.hr/leqash ] [ if under 28.8 don't even think about it ] # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Paul.French@psygnosis.co.uk Subject: Re: (orbital) Diversions Date: 17 Apr 1998 09:08:06 +0000 I got mine about 2 years ago, priced at ?7.99 (Bargain @ 1/2 the price) and there was no import sticker on it.

First, does this dwr budr video come on MTV in the US? Second, I havent seen Orbital live, ever. I have heard their live concerts on the internet. What can anyone tell me about their set during lollapalooza (sp??) for example. I mean, what songs do they play? I heard something about Remind, which is a KICK ASS song live. I have a copy of what they played at Glastonbury in 95 and Remind is by far, THE BOMB!!! Thanks a lot everyone. PS I know this is probably a "dumb" question, but does anyone want to sell Orbital albums, like the old stuff? I just cannot find that stuff anywhere at all. Whining again.

What can anyone tell me about their set > during lollapalooza (sp??) for example. I mean, what songs do they :P I saw em for the first time live at lolla last year and it was amazing. I'll retell the story. That summer i had just gotten my friend into orbital cuz we were coming a 2 hour round trip in/out of DC every day for work and that's all i played... he loved the music so when we heard orbital was gonna be there we freaked out and bought some bargain tix through the radio station (WHFS).. i think they were like 15 bucks but we got shitty seat in the back. It was at the nissan pavilion in VA. and WOW what a place! the pefect place for an orbital show.. a huge outdoor ampitheatre with green grassy hills all around for ppl to dance... you guys have to come see this place. (hehe i fell asleep during tricky's performance).. damn i wish i had some mushrooms or E on me that day hehe >:p anyhooo tool was performing.. a nice clear sky.. twas getting dark and the sun was setting.. nice cool breeze.. the most amazing setting.. the lead singer of tool paused for amoment.. a lot of ppl had left (the crowd wasnt too big to start with) most ppl had left after korn and snoopy doggy dog hhe. HE said that he hoped we'd all stick around for orbital.. the show was the most amazing experience and "for those of you who doubt my word... it's your loss". I guess this got the crowd rather intrigued. I had never read any interviews at the time and knew almost nothing about orbital.. just that i had been in love with their music for a year and a half.. didnt know much about thier shows either other than that mtv said it was "high tech". It mad me rather intrigued as well.. from what i gathered like 90% of the crowd had never heard of orbital...who were these two mysterrrrious brothers that were supposedly gonna take us on the ride of our lives? tool's set finished and only a few ppl left.. a bunch of dudes started settting up this huge cage of synths and cables on stage that looked like an electronic jungle.. while these weird dancers dress like.. well. hm.. those of you who were there know what i was talking about.. they danced around and it was very entertaining to watch. the three screens dropped down around the 'cage'.. hehe every time i referr to orbital's live setup i call it 'the cage' >:).. a few mins later..it was totally dark out.. clear sky, perfect temp.. even more perfect setting than tool.. these two dudes came out wearing weird headseads with lazers and lights. ooo (i still want a pair hehe). yelling things like 'hello.. how's it going'" and stuff like that with their brittish accents. In my setion of seats there were very few ppl left.. the music started.. lights pouring everywhere and lazers going..oh my goood.. one person got up in m row and started dancing but no one else joined him so he sat down.. a min later i got up with my hacky sack and said fuck it! i'm dancing.. my friend next to me joined me and a few mins later we had about 2/3 of our section dancing.. i'd say about 75% of the ppl in the entire pavilion who were sitting there with their jaws wide open when they were performing were all dancing within 10 mins... the rest staring in awe at the lazers, lights, and psychedelic imaging on the screns. I even saw some of the security dudes dancing!!! >:) hehe... what a PERFECT WAY to end the PERFECT DAY. I think everyone left to watch that show became orbital fans that night >:)... i wished their set would go on all night even though i had to go to work the next morning.. small price to pay to dance around in heaven all night >:) i came to lollapalooza thinking it was gonna be poser heaven with just a bunchof bunch having so much fun.. everyone was nice to each other.. it was like what i envisioned woodstock to be... even the spooky kids and wannabe goths with their mariyn manson tshirts and black eyeliner and black fish net stockings hehe... that's why i was so disappointed when i heard lolla cudnt get going this year and were gonna cancel >:(... how could anyone not want to go.. it was so cool. i was hoping maybe orbital would come back... i hear ppl complaining a lot thatorbital does perform live enough.. i used to think that until this year when i realized if they played live all the time their edge, what makes the experience so special would just dissolve... anyhoo.. cant wait to see em live whenever their new album comes out >:) peace, brain http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~blorra1 # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Benjamin Szabo" Subject: (orbital) DIVERSIONS Date: 17 Apr 1998 09:38:24 PDT I know this is a long shot, but what are my chances of getting Diversions on vinyl?

Remind Choice The Saint/Sinner The Girl With the Sun in Her Head The Box Satan Petrol Halcyon Impact I think that's it. I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong.. :) At the one I saw, the best songs were Remind and TGWTSIHH. (at least I thought so). I wish they hadn't had to cut forever and chime, but the mix from Halcyon directly into Impact was pretty cool, I have to say.

Brunet" Subject: (orbital) dwr video Date: 19 Apr 1998 01:49:13 -0400 (EDT) Hello All - I'm speaking from a place of shaky certainty here, but the video that is described as being "dwr budr" sounds a *lot* like one of the video remixes for Coldcut's "timber," all of which are available on the "timber" single. I think it's EBN's remix video which starts off with a (badly done) computer generated character looking out a window into a forest, and then putting on a VR helmet and forseeing the death of the forest and ecosystem. I'll be somewhat sorry if I'm right - I'd like to see what P+P could do with "dwr budr"....

Yeah, so I've got good news for the GC fans, Tom said that they are just about to lock themselves into the studio and make the next Global Communications album. He said to expect it early 99. And also, the label is going to go world wide in the next couple of months, so their cd's won't be so expensive anymore.

I hope nothing important's been happening.... Well, good news. After six months of looking for them I finally found the '0161' and 'Skampler' compilations on Skam. Best stuff I've bought in at least twelve months - they've got Jega, Gescom (Autechre), Lego Feet, Bola and Boards of Canada rare tracks and there's hardly a duff one on them. Jega, in particular, would appeal to people on this list - a chap from Manchester who seems to have the sonic patterns of Mu-ziq mixed in with the dark, brooding menace of Aphex, PLUS some excellent Orbital-esque tunes. Think of Pentatonik crossed with Autechre. And watch out, 'cos this guy is going to be massive if he gets an overground release out this year. I think he's signed to Planet Mu now. I don't know about availability in the US, but it was hard enough to find these disks over here (Ordered form Piccadilly Records - the greatest shop in the Universe) Received my remix CDs (thanx Steve) and new shirt (thanx Digger) at the weekend too. Full steam ahead for Glasto now... all I need are my hedspex. Hmmm. Underworld playing live this summer everywhere. Great. I love 'em. Anyone else going to their shows? Are they playing the States? DJ magazine just released their list of the hundred all-time greatest DJ tracks. Unfinished sympathy at number one. Energy Flash at number two. Chime was in there at 23, I think, and Belfast at around 80. Some nice stuff lurked in the middle - a lot of Prodigy first album, Derrick May, Cafe del Mar, some more Beltram, My Bloody Valentine (yup, really) .... and ULTRA NATE at number four (spit). Oh well, can't be all perfect. No 'Loaded' or 'Pump up the Volume', though, two of my own teary-eyed and pining-for-my-youth floorfillers. Or 'Rez'. Or 'Lush'. Or.... One last thing - finally bit the bullet and bought a shedload of stuff from CDNow after years of fearing that the internet gestapo might get hold of my credit card number. It arrived at the weekend as well. Despite getting caught for twelve quid import duty, it still worked out at around eight pounds per disc for the American releases of Tri Repetae, Fatboy Slim, Death in Vegas, Props, BRA, Tricky, Garbage, Catherine Wheel, Curve and those Bill Hicks shows. Considering the fact that US domestic releases always seem to have a load of extra tracks (especially on Astralwerks) I can only recommend that you don't bother with the HMV imports section any longer (twenty-four quid for 'Come Clean'? Not any more.) Now I've got to go and flog my inferior UK releases to Vinyl Exchange. Any opinions? Nice to be back - here comes the summer!

The thing with 'Bargain at half the price' is purely said for amusement, it is a light hearted phrase that has no real point really. On a seperate matter, I remember once reading ( I think was NME - though that won't mean anything unless you're from good old blighty ), that SPOOKY (note: Not DJ SPOOKY) where like 'No Frills' Orbital. I remember getting a CD of theirs about a year ago (the name escapes me now), but it turned out to my an ambient album (which I must state that I am not really into). But Spooky have done some more up tempo stuff. If I said that my favourites Orbital tracks where the ones like Impact, Satan, Girl with sun....., Remind.. Could anyone recommend to me the Spooky CD which is more like these tracks are.

Firstly, thanks Steve "Loopz", I got the remix CD and the magazine the day just before my journey back home for Easter, so I buckled up and had a good vacation with cool articles to read and great remixes to listen to. If it counts for anything, I must ag ree with the judges in giving Adnan's by the Ranger the thumbs up because that track really deserved a few times on the repeat function. Also, on my way home I came across Times Fly on vinyl in Newcastle, only one left so I had to have it. Is this one hard to come by or quite common? I mean, I hardly see anything by Orbital on vinyl these days, so this one made a good start of my vinyl-col lection of Orbital. Sooo, soon home in Norway, I could hardly wait to get my hands shuffling through the cd/vinyl racks in the "ambient"-stores I usually check out and ah-hah; there were new things to catch up on. The newest entries into my collection are Biosphere/HiA's "Po lar Sequences" and Bleep (former Biosphere)'s "North pole by Submarine", these two were a must after having read about them for a while and in addition reading about them (kindof) in Steve's Loopz Zine. Also, there's a new band coming up, people, if you've not heard of them; Subgud. They're from Norway, alright, and have released two albums and several EPs with Norway's leading hard rock band, Seigmen, for whom they have often been special guests. Their music is much like Biosphere, only faster, so it might resemble Orbital in some ways, but most of the time it's original stuff and it's good!! I even got around to going to a concert at a small, independent image club back home, and after having heard them live, I must say they're really great. I now even know that I've seen Orbital once without knowing it, as this was at Roskilde Festival a few years back and I didn't know too much about the band then, so the excitement at seeing them wasn't as huge as it would've been nowadays. Rest of Easter is just crap, snowy, windy, rainy and full of longing for a return to Scotland again, which I did this Saturday. So, upon forcing the door to my flat open, there were hundreds of letters in there (usual stuff after a long vacation) AND two pieces of importance. One was from Orbital Lines, Steve Price, so thanks if you had a hand in getting that order around, so now I'm proudly wearing my new baseball sweater in two, blue colours. The other was from my local music store, so Mehul, I'm sorry but they didn't manage to get Radiccio as it was out of stock. I'll have another look at the store where I found it and get back to you about it. Anyway, that was more than my two cents and this one wasn't even an answer. A short question just to end it all spectacularly; Did Orbital contribute on ALL tracks on the Event Horizon soundtrack or just a few of them?

After six months of looking for them I finally found the >'0161' and 'Skampler' >compilations on Skam. Where can you find them?! I've been looking for ANY Jedi Knight material, especially the Skampler, for ages. I can't find it available to purchase online at any of the many websites out there. If I'm not wrong, Skampler also has some stuff from Autechre's alter-ego (the name which escapes me at the moment) that is supposed to be more electro. I cannot get enough of good electro. There just isn't enough Uberzone to go around. Damn I'm anxious for his next album. Gary Numan is one of the founders of the Euro-synth-pop era which influenced techno a decade later. If you want to sample his work pick up "The Best of Gary Numan" (or something like that) which has the immortal classic "Cars" as well as some other really great, underappreciated songs. Old-ass analog synth bliss. Enjoy. I am really embarassed to say that I actually bought a DJ Keoki CD. It is his latest, "Inevitable Alien Nation". I think it is safe to say that Keoki is a total cheeseball but there are a few tracks on this thing that really smoke and don't reek of 4/4 pounding house puke. Don't buy the CD but if you can, sample tracks #2 and #14 and I'll be damned if they don't get you into a dance mood. You may scoff at me but Master P (another cheeseball) has an *EXCELLENT* drum programmer on his producing team. If you can manage to hear the beat under the amateurish rapping of P you will be delighted. It's becoming increasingly difficult to find good music in stores these days. If I had a dime for every "Electronica Rave 2000!" CD in the techno section I'd be able to build a roller coaster in my back yard.

(besides being the first one i ever bought). Great songs.

Even worse is Fat Boy Slim. Totally 1995. The style has gotten way watered down, but I think the Chems stuff still stands far above the rest.

I agree with Morey, for those who've only listened to the Chemicals recent stuff I say get 'Exit Planet Dust' those who appreciated that when it came out (which seems years ago now) will have I feel been very dissapointed with the likes of 'Block Rockin' Beats' etc. With regards to fatboy Slim I too found the album extremely exciting and the back end of that album far superior musically to the fron end (From Punk to Funk etc). Anyone heard the new Massive Attack album, I've only had a few listens but it's grabbed me by the balls, probably the most inventive album I've heard for a while.

Neither of LFO's albums have any singers on them. 'Shove Piggy Shove' is the instrumental version of a Bjork track that Mark Bell produced, but LFO themselves (just Mark bell nowadays) have never used singers.

Todays is Air - Moon Safari This album has (as far as I know) been raved about from hell to high water. Indeed it has some extremely shining moments - Sexy Boy - a prime example, it also has some very (I would say) throw away tracks that simply just wash over you and fade into the background which makes this in my opinion an album for dinner parties. Yet it has a lot of charm, a beat on one song ripped off the Beach Boys 'Lets Do It Again' - people who know both songs will either agree or disagree. To summarise it's good, I love it - especially at dinner parties Anyway I know this is a crap review but it's only a quick thought between coming up with ideas for adverts.

Luke Slater - Freek Funk This was definetly one of THE albums of last year. It's got everything and quite amazingly isn't disjointed like other albums which try to cover a range of styles. It starts with a simple techno beat, just a nice middle of the night dance track and procedes to grab you by the balls and wrench your scrotum out. From almost Kraftwerk style Techno to really fucking hard banging Techno through down right funky beats almost Mo' Wax in style to the beautifull hard house track called 'Love'. This album is a must guys and gals, it'll satisfy everyone of your tastebuds and have you reaching for the needle to play it all again.

I'm 17 and live in Columbus, OH. I have been watching this group for a while and never really said much till now for some reason. I love the converstaions that go on here. Orbital is my favorite band ever. I've only known about them since The Box came out as a video on MTV. I quickly worked my way from InSides backwards though and have found enjoyment in all of the Orbital I own now. Trust me it wasn't easy finding stuff in the Mid-west. Normally when I talk about Orbital most people look at me as if I was on crack or something. All that stuff said and done I have one small thing. I was watching this news show the other night and they played The Box as promo music for their next segment. Someone out there is listening and knows who to sneak good music into the oddist places. Well I guess that is it for my first post, hope it didn't bore you to much.

If you've never heard of the Kosmic Free Music Foundation, I'll go ahead and recommend them.. ---> http://www.kosmic.org/mainpage.html For those of you who don't know, they are a group of about 35 guys who produce all of their music in MOD format (or XM, S3M, IT, etc..) in their spare time. And it's some professional-sounding stuff IMO! Their styles include traditional house, trip-hop, acid, rave, ambient, trance, intelligent techno (whatever that is..?), and there's even a few bits of Muzak thrown in for good measure. ;) A few artists I'd reccomend are: Ringlord -- I'm convinced he's the unknown Hartnoll brother. ;) Basehead -- "Chiba City Lights" from 1994 is an 18-minute masterpiece! Highly recommended! << http://www.kosmic.org/kosmic/songs/94/klf-chib.zip >> I can't really describe his works, they call it "progressive house".. It's damn good, whatever it is! Maelcum -- The guy in charge. House, Acid-Trance, Ambient.. whatever you want, he CAN deliver! Chuck Biscuits -- Like Basehead, he hasn't produced anything in over a year.. but if you'd like some house, he's got the good stuff! Mental Floss -- heavy stuff.. 'nuff said! As for the rest of the members, you're likely to find something you like!

The first Plastikman album 'Sheet One' is better than 'Musik' though, seems to fit together better as an album rather than a collection of unrelated (but damn good!) tracks like 'Musik' does. The 'Recycled Plastik' mini-album is great too, more like 'Sheet One' than 'Musik'. His latest album 'Concept 1 96:CD' (that might be what it's called - it's difficult to tell as the sleeve is as minimal as the music) is VERY minimal, more so than anything I've ever heard. Most people would say it's boring I suppose, but I love it. I wouldn't say the FUSE album is much like 'Tri repetae' or 'Chiastic Slide'-era Autechre, but I can see the link with 'Incunabula'. Hardly surprising as they were both part of Warp's 'Artificial Intelligence' series. Personally I prefer both Hawtin and Autechre's more recent, harsher, material. cheers, Jon - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk "A mind more twisted than a bad hedge" # 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: kwikyslush@juno.com (Brandon M.

"Sacrebleu" b= y Dimitri from Paris is a pretty good cd, but I'd ahve to say that Air's cd is with out a doubt better. Another excellent cd in a similar vein is United Future Organization's "3rd Perspective" Hard album to try to classify, but whenver I play it in my dorm room, people knock on my door and ask if I'm playing James Bond or spy film music. It's quite good, heavy on the polyrhythmic jazz, and is always a treat to listen to. Of course, any techno purists should shy away from it, because it seems to be done entirely with actual instruments, although there is still a distict drum 'n bass feel to many tracks. Anyways, anyone who like Air, Dimitri from Paris, the new Stereolab, or Propellerheads ought to at least give this cd one listen. I'll shut up now. Ryan Randall p.s.

Toronto was the last stop for North America on their Bridges to Babylon tour (also the first because they played a surprise show at the Horseshoe Tavern near the end of their rehersal time here in Toronto)... It wasn't supposed to be though, the concert was rescheduled from 9 January 'cuz Mick was sick. I didn't like it being on a Sunday night, 'cuz I got home at 1:30, and I had to get up for school like always at 5:45. *yawn* Anyway, I can't say I'm a big stones fan.. I got tickets because it was rumored the Smashing Pumpkins were opening the Toronto date, but it ended up being Wide Mouth Mason (cool bluesy group from out west.. I'd seen them before with treble charger) The show started at 7:30, and we got there a little bit before.. they were playing some cool drum'n'bass I'd heard before.. then wide mouth mason came on, and they played about an hour. Then, of course, they had to reset the stage and all that kinda thing. I can't remember how long it took, but they were playing all kinds of British acts. They played breathe by the prodigy. Grr. And no Orbital. Bigger grr. Then the stones came on, and they played like two and a half hours. The show was great, but it just... lacked something. My dad said it was the best concert he's ever been to, my biology teacher who was also there agrees.. but I beg to differ. Of all the concerts I've been to, Orbital at Lollapalooza still tops the list. The lighting and fireworks everything like that (GLITTER!!!) last night, while it was great.. It seemed just all for show.. you know? "Hey, we're big stars, you paid a lot of money to see us prance around, now we're gonna flash some lights in your face and shoot glitter out over the crowd." It's not that I wasn't into the music, it's not that there weren't a lot of people there (sold out crowd of 55,000).... There was just ****SOMETHING**** missing. I dunno what. Lollapalooza was more fun, dancing around, forcefully grabbing people I didn't know and making them get up on chairs and dance (Hey-- it worked. by the end, like everybody near me was up and dancing).... there was just such a vibe and it was amazing and perfect, and they'd better tour soon or I'll be mad. But they gotta finish the album first, and I'm willing to wait for it as long as it takes for them to do their best. Anyway, I had fun just the same.. and on the subway ride there, I had three cute british guys (with cute accents to match) sitting across from me, and they were staring at my Orbital shirt.. I'd been sorta humming/singing to myself, so when I noticed them looking, I started singing halcyon, and one of them just looked at me and smiled.

Although it is my second least favorite Orb CD- behind Pomme Fritz, ug horrible CD, it still has some good tracks. It's very schizophrenic in nature. I think the Second Peel Session has better versions of Valley and Mountagne de Or. But it's still worthwhile, Slug Dub is a humorous track about a family of slugs and a bird, I won't reveal any more. It's nowhere near Orblivion, more ambient than beat oriented. I really liked listening to a tape I had of Orbvs Terrarvm when I went to Yosemite one summer and every night after I ate, I'd take a walk and listen to it. It sounded so appropriate with the nature sounds and sun setting as it's light pounded Half Dome and the view of waterfalls surrounding me. Just a melllow CD, really no d'n'b to it. A few beats but not heavy. BTW, the way, did anyone see the Bravo Special on Bjork on Sunday. Very well done and very cool. Excellent show.

(It's still a good album, I'm just a really big Orb fan) I think Orbum Terrarum is a lot noisier and dirtier sounding than most of their other stuff.

Date: 28 Apr 1998 09:00:20 +0200 Greetings guys and gals, babes and brrrrutes... :-) This is a bit off - topic so please forgive me. I went to the flea-market on Saturday and I picked up the cassette version of Mike Oldfield's "The Songs of Distant Earth" for R15 (in South African currency) or about $3. I took it home and couldn't wait to play it, and when I finally did, I was totally blown away. Damn, this guys good!!! I can't wait to get my hands on his other albums "Tubular Bells 1" and "Tubular Bells 2" as well as "Crises". Does anyone have any opinions about the above-mentioned albums? When I went to my city's biggest record store on Sunday, they didn't have any Orbital albums at all. The next time I go there, I think that I'm going to fight with someone! See ya.....

I've read some mixed reviews so far so after owning the album or a couple of days and giving it a damn good listening to during a smoking session at the weekend with some fellow followers, here's my views. You've probably heard how dark and gothic the new album is - but Massive have alwyas been heading that way so this album just totally covers the boys in darkness and finds them releasing angry, lullaby and down right emotive tracks. the album is dark, very gothic yet it grabs you by the balls and wrenches down, you're hooked, you don't want to let go, no matter how much it hurts this is a soundtrack to the kinkiest filthiest sex session you could have and no matter how much pain is involved you want more. It is a departure from previous, Protection Blue Lines but still has a definete Massive signature and the more you listen - as with all massive albums, the more you want to immerse yourself in it's misery.

The second Peel Session is not that incredibly hard to find, even here in the Southeast US. The little fluffy clouds single I have been searching high and low for for over 2 years with nothing to show for it so far. It's just not something people want to part with. > matt(wants to know if the versions from uforb are > better or worse than the counterparts on live 93) I'm not sure I'd say they're either. I was all ready to say the UFOrb version of Blue Room was better, then I thought for a minute, and I love both versions. The same goes for Towers of Dub and OOBE. Both albums are must-haves for any orb fan. -Morey # 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) Re:Orbus Terrarum 'little fluffy clouds' single available Date: 29 Apr 1998 10:29:16 +0100 (BST) > here in the Southeast US.

If you havn't got uforb or the latest one I'd say get them instead. (Ultraworld is still the best one though!) Thanks for the post about where to order the schematics stuff, the people at my local shop have been looking at me all strange whenever I mention it and come back from the computer all blank faced. (And they are usually quite good too!) ---> www.imvs.co.uk ;) I heard the equinox track, on the tv programme of the same name...sadly they only played about 20 seconds of it. I might have got this wrong but I think they got a few of the samples from the original title music to that show and Times Fly (slow) was born from that, it sounds fairly similar. Good to see the reviews, I can't afford all that vinyl right now but.. I really enjoyed Plaid's latest lp "not four threes" and Bjorks latest one too (I think it was that excellent production by LFO that did it for me) anybody have any recommendations for me in this "style" ? You know the kind of thing...layered, lush, melodic, intricate patterns..head 1st feet 2nd :) I'm listening to Roni Size's "new forms" right now, drum and bass isn't usually my thang but have to admit this is alright ! I'm praying to the tooth fairy for something new from the brothers soon, I know the LP's a while off...perhaps a single ? An ep ? Another peel session !!?? How about releasing the visit on vinyl !!

Damn, this guys good!!! I can't wait to get my hands > on his other albums "Tubular Bells 1" and "Tubular Bells 2" as well as > "Crises". Does anyone have any opinions about the above-mentioned albums? Hi there... I have a few Mike Oldfield CDs (5-6, like)... Songs of distand earth is his best I'd say, It's totally amazing and I'm not surprised that other orbital fans should like it. His latest album, "The voyager", came out in september 96. It has a celtic sound to it, and even if that sort of music is a bit trendy and unoriginal in style, he handles it well and the cd is worth buying if only for track 10 "Mont St-Michel". to give an idea, the cd sounds a lot like braveheart soundtrack and enya's more celtic tunes. tubular bells II |(1992) is about as good as SODE, it's a must-get. Once you've got to know and love it, try his 1973 (or near 73) original tubular bells... You'll find that TB2 follows TB1 in style, but strays for it in very interesting ways, but I think the best way to apreciate it all is to first love TB2, then see where it came from. Apart from that... I have only heard heaven's open, and it hasn't hooked me at all. what he did in the 70's and 80's doesn't please me much from what i've heard of it. Eventually I'll find out what the last album before TB2 was and buy it to see. I don't know but I'd expect a new album to come out within one year, if he keeps to the steady rythm of his last albums... Can't wait to hear that. I hope he hasn't fallen in love with the celtic style, because even though he did it good in the voyager, it's to big a limitation on him I believe!

Date: 01 May 1998 01:24:45 -0400 (EDT) One thing I thought I'd add: STAY AWAY from the orchestral tubular bells. I've heard high school fanfares that sounded better. More detailed comments: The score doesn't take advantage at all of the fact that now there's like a whole symphonic orchestra playing instead of several mike oldfield clones each on his own track. The interpretation itself sounds fanfare-ish, really lousy i tell you.
