From: Kel Subject: (orbital) LP5 Sticker?? Date: 30 Aug 1998 12:25:06 -0400 Hey, I hate to be offtopic again, but I've noticed the sticker on my copy of LP5 has a misspelling. If anyone has the sticker still on their copy of it, check it. it's got the copyright and bar code and things on it, and the first line says: "ae prodution booth\brown" Does anyone else have this problem on their sticker? Does anyone still have the sticker? I just wanted to write, see if this makes it extra valuable :) later KEL # 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: Tim Subject: (orbital) fwd : Hartnoll appearance?

There are one or two duffers, but I'd never call it throwaway. Especially not in '93 when it came out. It was absolutely essential then. I prefer the Source track and Scubadevils and the Moody Boyz.

I guess if you care for undancable industrial music (personal opinion) then you would like it. That was the only time I have dared to put it in my cd player. I had heard so much good stuff about them, I figured I should try again, so I bought Lifeforms. Personally, this album is the only reason I still listen to them. So I guess this goes to show that everyone has different tastes and never rule out an album until you hear it yourself. # 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?Aim=E9e_Couture?=" Subject: (orbital) WOOOOOOOOOOOOHAH Date: 01 Sep 1998 23:16:30 -0400 oh my GOD i just had one of the coolest orbital experiences of my life! i was at canada's wonderland (a theme park here) and i stayed for the laser/light/pyro/fireworks/etc show. the theme of it this year is 'nights= of fire at the movies' or something.. anyway.. like the third song in (cuz i= t's all done to music) is......

Anyway, my first FSOL cd was ISDN, and lemme tell you, having only heard 'calcium' from accelerator, it was a nasty shock.

Accelerator is all around good album ... and it is none threatening to newbies of fsol's music. The Papau New Guinea EP...which Lequash sent me (thanks again for all the music i still listen to them often) bends toward deep forest meets a little bit of industrial but still remains to be a very catchy tune. i think most have difficulty with the facts that their music is mellow ambient, storylines with a darkness to them ... it's not something that gets you dancing about. mikey g # 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: STARpango Subject: (orbital) The Crystal Method And Josh Wink Date: 02 Sep 1998 20:12:46 -0500 while i'm posting i was wondering what you guys and gals have to say about the crystal method in concert. i've got tickets for their september 16th show here in columbus, ohio and wanted to know who has seen them mostly recently.

Hmm. I saw Crystal Method in February, and the rocked the house. It was kinda interesting watching the old-school crystal method fans mingle with the mtv crystal method fans..

Page 034 Orbital Paul and Phil Hartnoll's long awaited fifth album is "all but finished" but the exact release date still remains a mystery. After several shifting release dates, the album is now set for release around November or January. The confusion is down to record company politics. Polygram, who distribute Orbital's label London Records, have been bought by Seagrams [the Canadian drinks and media multinational], so Orbital's management are unsure who'll be working the record and are keen to wait until the dust has settled. Boring, we know, but it's stopping us all from getting out hands on the album. "Everything would have to be perfect if we bring out the album in November," says Orbital's manager Rob Holden, "because it is the most competitive time of the year". A new single may be out before Christmas, though, but London have yet to select a track. Aldo, in typical Orbital style, the album and tracks have no names - the boys prefer to name them at the last minute. The overall feel of the album is said to be less introspective than their last albume In Sides, and more intricate than much of their previous work. "They're really exploring the technology available to them this time," says Holden. Earlier this year, the album was shaping-up to be far more "in-your-face and dancefloor-friendly" than In Sides, though there are not as many 4/4 house beats as might be expected. Paul and Phil are experimenting more with breakbeatsl. Despite the confusion of exactly what the album sounds like, Holden is quietly confident. "It's rather good," he says "Paul and Phil have been slowly simmering away in the studio and nothing has gone diastrously wrong because they've been left to their own devices." The album is relatively short [about ten tracks] and features live instrumentation, live drums and trumpet melodies. One tracks is rock-based while another is a downbeat affair featuring a stylaphone[?!]. Orbital prefer to work on their own, although they have employed the odd vocalist, like Alison Goldfrapp, who contributed to In Sides. The vocals have been used as instruments, cut-up and layered onto tracks. After two years' work in the studio, Orbital are looking forward to touring again. They originally had some dates scheduled for the end of this year, but have cancelled because of the delay with the album.

I'll never forget seeing Mark Farina spinning in the room dubbed the 'mushroom jazz lounge' (beforehand). It was very much like you describe, but all the lights were set up so that the room just had a subdued greenish-yellow glow all over, and not much else.. It looked like the music and the humid air were combining to sort of spontaneously congeal fungus on the walls and ceiling. Weird, but there's not really any other way to describe it. This was where I went (downstairs) to take breaks from the aforementioned cirrus show. -Morey gandalf@wnc.com good people better rise up together and join hands with one heart and one mind good people better rise up soon # 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: "Morey Gamble" Subject: RE: (orbital) The Crystal Method And Josh Wink Date: 03 Sep 1998 19:13:02 +0000 > Also........has anyone seen Cirrus live?

They sounded pretty good when I saw them (about a year and a half ago, mind you), but I heard a realaudio show of theirs that was horrible.. It's an interesting combination of sequenced keyboards and live instruments, to be sure, and they have a coupla songs that are pretty groovy. It was kinda weird jumping back and forth from the hard trancey breakbeat stuff to the really dazed trip hop stuff, but it may just be that I'm not used to vibes jumping around like that in a club. My experience was kinda jaded because I had just paid like $30 to see dubtribe, and they cancelled because of their honeymoon and they got cirrus as a last-minute replacement. It was even before their first album came out, and nobody knew any of the songs or even really who they were. And also, it was definitely weird watching them rock out on the stage to 'break in' while the female vocal stuff is going on (give us a break, etc) and thinking, so, like, uh, where's the singer? In other words, it's a decent show, but not for $30... -Morey gandalf@wnc.com The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. # 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: DD_Hughes@ACAD.FANDM.EDU (Daniel Hughes) Subject: Re: (orbital) The Crystal Method And Josh Wink Date: 03 Sep 1998 19:18:30 -0400 > that's a very cool plus side. also Wink is coming into town to host > Clockwork on this coming sunday at RedZone (a phat dance club!!!) so can > somebody fill me in on what his sets are usually like...particularly those > of you who live in or near Philly... being his residency and everything. I was talking to Josh last night in between sets that he was spinning at Fluid here in Philly. We were at the bar and he recommended a nice Hefeweitzen. I was a little inebrieated but I thought the stuff he was spinning was pretty cool, not sure of the artists but it would appeal to someoene who likes orbital I think. He wasnt playing anything that sounded like his own stuff, I think he was trying to play some Ovum groups(that's his own label). Anyway, he's a nice guy if you run into him.

I'm normally a lurker, but I just had to write in and brag a bit, because I actually found a sealed copy of the Radiccio CD here in Vancouver (HMV on Robson for those who'd like to know)! Now that I've actually heard the gem, I'd like to share a brief review: Halcyon, the original version, is not very different from Halcyon+On+On, just sort of rearranged a bit, so don't feel too bad that your life won't be complete until you hear it... However, the two B-sides, The Naked and the Dead, and Sunday, are WICKED! Well worth the inflated price I paid to get that little 3-tracker. End of review. Rambling rant: Finding this disc made me think of the recent discussion regarding the trading of Orbital songs over the internet and how some people don't agree with this practice because it deprives the band/label of royalties. Someone brought up the idea of how royalties are not paid on used CD's (although failed to mention that a royalty has already been paid on each disc). All this got me to thinking: yes Orbital are gods, and they deserve our utmost respect, and we shouldn't rip them off. However, if Orbital were truly concerned with earning royalties, wouldn't they realize that they have a huge fan base and could earn a lot of royalties simply by reissuing all their deleted singles? How many fans on this list actually own a copy of Omen or Mutations? Small number, I'm afraid. How many would buy them instantly if they were reissued? Virtually all of them. Want to double your royalties? Reissue the old singles in double-pack format, thereby forcing your fans to buy both halves in order to obtain all the mixes and b-sides. If Mutuations were reissued on two CDs (mirroring the original 12"ers) instead of the original one, I'd certainly buy both (although it wouldn't be my preference, a precedent has certainly been set by the triple-pack Satan Live). Oh yeah, one other thing: if anyone out there has any extra copies of Chime, Omen, Mutations, Radiccio 2, etc., you now have my address. I'm waiting for your letters... hee hee hee!

'On the wires of our nerves' didn't do it for me, but then that's what always hapens when I try to hold a conversation instead of listening to the music.

Dependable is not a word I've heard applied to Paradinas ever before. But he is bloody good sometimes. It's been said his quality control is even worse than RDJ's. Mind you the same's been said of Weatherall too, but I like everything he does. >> Can somebody please give me some ideas for new music? RIchie Hawtin's recent stuff: the third Plastikman album and the two 'Concept' albums are all excellent minmal techno. For a bit of variety, there's the Mogwai remix album with everyobne from Alec Empire to Kid Loco via the Surgeon and Arab Strap. There's a Dynamix II compilation thing on Rephlex called 'Electro Megamix', which is (surprisingly!) electro. You know where you are with titles like 'Feel the bass', 'Techno bass' and 'Bass generator'. Warp have got a new Plone single out on Monday and the Two Lone Swordsmen single had better finally be out a week later. If you like euro stuff from '91 to '97 (Hardfloor, Age Of Love, GTO, CJ Bolland, 'Mentasm' etc) then 'Reactivate Classics' is unmissable. Unmixed double CD or single mixed CD, take your pick. Or buy both ;-) That should keep you going for a while. And a couple of bands you've probably not heard of, Orbital and Underworld, should have stuff out soon (by soon I mean within the next year ;-). And Leftfield might if we're lucky. cheers, Jon - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk 4 Tracks.

Ooops, blew the whole surprise there, but anyway, Biosphere use that sample too in a track off Microgravity called "The Tranquilizer" (HOT TRACK, really ambient) Anyway, it's from an older movie, an old sci-fi movie, I think and if i'm not totally mistaken I mean to remember its name is something similar to the track. Geir Jenssen (Biosphere) is often like that, as with the other sig I used a while : "Sometimes at night, I used to reach out and try to touch the stars" is a sample from a track called "Startoucher" with the movie it was in having the same name. Try check for a few older films called something with Tranquilizer.. ;) Not old as in 40s, 50s, 60s, but late 80s-like.. :) Hope it helps.

Instead of a mix disk, this one has Intense performing live. It's definitely somewhat watered down (not much to it), but it's _live_ jungle. Drums, bass, sax, guitar, some live synth, even.

Date: 14 Sep 1998 21:39:28 -0400 Hello list, just had a quick query as to the episode of AMP I taped last night. Instead of AMP, the electronic music program was introduced as 'After Hours,' the show that usually comes after AMP. It seems to be longer too, as my timer stopped at 3AM in the middle of a video. I missed the online programming schedule at mtv.com and the AMP site has nothing about a name change or new time slot. So anyone know what's up with this??? Thanx if you can clear my confusion...

Thanx if you can clear my confusion... Yeah, instead of the AMP opening credits, they did the little after hours moon sequence, then showed an hour of electronic stuff without any of the AMP visual stuff, then went back into the regular programming (i think).

They did the same thing on one of their 'Relax' mixes too - maybe they like it! The other Jam & Spoon mix doesn't have any loud drones, has a kicking breakbeat instead of the usual 4 on the floor (not to mention a harder kick drum) AND to top it off, it's the one fewer people know (which always seems to make a difference to me, even though it shouldn't). They're both too short as well, which is about the only fault I can find. I'm sure I've read mentions of a sixteen minute J&S mix, but I've never found any reliable info about ti - anybody shed any light on this? cheers, Jon - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk 4 Tracks.

New Single - undecided track - January 1999. New Album - loads of working titles - no named title - photo cover - February 1999. Tour not organised at time of writing. As for MTV - its ideal as background music ...when u couldnt give a toss what is being played cause you are concentrating on other things. We have the CHILL OUT ZONE in Europe which is like AMP (i watched AMP on a tape that Mick EA George brought over when he visited last year) - i think thats the only worthy MTV program to dedicate more than 4 brain cells to. If you havent seen CHILL OUT or cant keep awake that late then set the video for Sunday morning.

Ah well, if we're all feeling pleased with ourselves, then I'll let you all know I got the Back to The Planet 'Daydream' promo with Orbital mix.

The documentary features about 2 minutes of Orbital twiddling knobs, and then jumps to the next artist just as the song is beginning to start, but it's well worth watching for the whirlwind tour of electronic music from John Cage to Kraftwerk to FSOL to Prodigy. The music is never really given much of a chance (a couple of minutes per artist, which is pretty trivial for this genre), but the interviews are terrific, ranging from utterly inarticulate (Autechre) to rather perverse (FSOL). Naturally, my favorite "electronica" (did Spin coin that damned word?) ensemble, Underworld, was overlooked, as was the whole Chicago/Wax Trax!/Industrial scene, but what do you expect from life? # 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: "Tim 'Gouranga' Wynne" Subject: Re: (orbital) Guess What!!!!?????!!!!!

[OT] Date: 23 Sep 1998 08:54:10 +0200 Hey all... I just realized I haven't made a post to this list in a long long while. I have a few minutes till I have to go out to work so here goes... Summing it all up, Orbital is still my number one. Underworld, having heard a lot they have done, are pretty high up there too. I still am in love with Spooky, Orb and FSOL, but lately (this means the last year or so) I've been straying into drum & bass waters. I've been into Goldie and Metalheadz stuff before, but now I am getting my hands on any drum & bass compilation I can. This is the music I listen to when I walk, drive, work, eat, sleep and ummm..:) you know :), and in general, this is the music I breathe to. Right now I am listening to "Atmospheric Drum & Bass vol. 4", disc one track two called "Listen To The Way" by Minx. I know "brilliant" is the word Steve would use to describe a track he loves, but this is much much more. Sadly, I've never been good in describing music, so all I can do is give you people some recommendations. So listen very carefully, you've GOT to get : 1. Atmospheric Drum & Bass 2 - mixed by Aphrodite ; features tracks like Sweet Mind (Aphrodite), Something (Sirens) and To Ya! (Flytronix). It's purpose is to play in the cd-rom when you're hitting it off in Mortal Kombat 4 :-) 2. V Classic - a weird metal box (sorta like a cigarette-box) with 3 CDs inside. Features artists like Krust, Die, Suv, Roni Size, Dillinja, Ray Keith etc. Exceptional tracks are Goldie's remix of "The Calling" by Roni Size and Scorpio's "Li-Li". 3. Moving Shadow 98.1 promo - I just recently got this from Arrone (hi!:)) and the best way to describe it is "kicks major butt". I've been acting like GLUED to track 6, "Tough at the top" by E-Z Rollers. These last two days that's been all I was playing. I had to step down and switch to Atmospheric 4 because I got so exhausted -- you can't listen to Tough at the top and remain still. I always have to dance. Can't wait till I get my hands on 98.2 4. This is drum & bass - what a generic title. But this 3 CD compo is anything but generic. Has loads of exceptional tracks, my personal favorites are DJ Pulse remix of "Candles" by Alex Reece (always reminds me of someone on this list :)), PFM mix of "The Sea" by St. Etienne, Roni Size mix of "The Trip" by Skylab [the sexiest female vocal I've heard in a long time] and Blu Mar Ten's "Fountain". But everything else rocks too. Arrgh, sorry people but that's it, I gotta get outta here or I'll be late. Seeya all soon.

Can't wait till I get my hands on 98.2 I picked this one up back in May, and I think it's pretty good. I like the first half of it way better than the second half, and the Origin Unknown remix of Tough at the Top is probably the jungle song of the year so far. Everyone is playing it; it's on every single friggin' mix CD I've seen. It's also on the mew Dieselboy CD, as well as the new Dara CD, and it's on a Darkstar mixtape I have. I think this is a great song, but I just can't take it anymore. (On another note, I bought the EZ Rollers 'Weekend World' LP on the strength of this song. If you're considering it, listen first if at all possible.) > 4. This is drum & bass - what a generic title. But this 3 CD compo > is anything but generic.

But everything else rocks too. I dunno about all the other stuff, but I've got the Blu Mar Ten 12" for 'Fountain' and the PFM remix on Artcore 3, and they're both excellent. I think the PFM remix of 'The Sea' is one of my favorite jungle songs. So I guess all this is to say... I agree.

Well, the stuff I have has been collected from a wide number of sources. I had a friend who ran a record store in town here for about 6 months (as long as he could afford to stay open), and I got a lot of really top stuff from him. For good Jungle stuff, try breakbeat science (www.breakbeatscience.com). I've also had good luck with CDNow and ab-cd. Oh, if you like ez-rollers, go to www.cductive.com and create yourself an ez rollers cd. Last time I checked, they had something like 25-30 ez rollers tracks available. $4.99 for the first track, $1.00 for each additional track. They have a pretty extensive jungle selection, as well as big-beat, house, trance, trip hop, etc.. And they have real audio samples of _everything_. -Morey gandalf@wnc.com We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. -Oscar Wilde # 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: "Daniel Kasaj" Subject: Re: (orbital) back from the dead ?

While there, I heard a commercial for a conference of sorts called "Cyberfest" or something to that effect. This commercial starts out with the sample "Would you like to study philosophy..." and from there, includes about 6 different Orbital songs. I had my headphones on when it happened, so I couldnt record it. Killer commercial though.

Orbital is certainly more than just bang-bang dancefloor techno, which would put it up with classical.

Although not a really big fan of that band, I must say the fan'o'meter got a boost after seeing their concert at a music festival in Denmark this summer. I knew of some songs from before, so if you want a lot of the hits, go for "The Mix" album which has all the great, Eurobeat classics. "Die Mensch-Maschine" is also a good album, possibly similar to the recommendation given of "Radioactivity" as it seems a bit minimal too, but has a lot of good songs, "Robots" and "The Model" at least. The latter is not on the "The Mix" album so that's the only disadvantage about that album, but it's got "Pocket Calculator" and "Radioactivity" which are both great. ...especially if you've experienced "Pocket Calculator" as an encore at a Kraftwerk concert. ;) hope it helps .eof? +------------------------------------------------------------------+ "Couldn't this lengthy therapy be replaced by tranquilizing drugs" - Trym "halcyons@hotmail.com" - Biosphere "The Tranquilizer" +------------------------------------------------------------------+ ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.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: "Trym Asserson" Subject: Re: (orbital) hiya Date: 27 Sep 1998 10:43:34 PDT your words were ... >now for my newbie type qs!

I was afraid I was too late. I was introduced to techno by my friend a couple of years ago, and first heard/saw Orbital on an American show on MTV called Amp. This was the Box, which is now my most favourite song (ever). I bought In Sides (the American, 2 CD version), immediately, and recently bought the Green CD (American Version). I am in love with techno because ever since I was a little kid, all I would do is come up with strange beats and melodies and tap them out on my desk, or whatever. I would like to know what I am missing here in the States, and also if anyone on the list lives here. Also, I am interested in mixing things on my own? How does one go about starting something like that, and how much money does it take. Nothing big, just the cheapest stuff money can buy.

Can someone recommend a album that is > similar to orbital. someone told me the old stuff, but can i get a > album name or something? The nearest thing in terms of sound and production is 'The Mix', which is virtually a 'Greatest Hits Reworked' package. If you want the classics, there's are 4 LPs which every fan of electronic music should have; Autobahn : More primitive sounding than later efforts, but an utterly hypnotic and atmospheric piece of electronica. Ground-breaking to the Nth degree. Trans-Europe Express : The crystallisation of the poppier, less overtly experimental sound of the late 70s. This is the *all-time classic* electronic LP. It's happy, weird and stark in different places, and predates the birth of modern electronic dance music by almost 10 years! The Man Machine : Kraftwerk developed the idea of robotic sounds, and the LP is more mechanical in parts, but any album that has the pop classic 'The Model' and the unspeakably lush beauty of 'Neon Lights' is going to be a classic, isn't it? Computerworld : This is the point where the Kraftwerk sound became less futuristic and more contemporary - but only because people were starting to catch up with them! Brilliant melodies and sounds - most of which have been sampled to death by less worthy bands and artists. Electronic pop heaven. These are the LPs I'd recommend to a new fan, but 'The Mix' is probably the best introduction to someone who hasn't really heard them before. 'Ralf Anf Florian', 'Radio-Activity' and the earlier stuff are more experimental, but contain some excellent stuff. 'Electric Cafe' contained a lot of good material but didn't do anything new. If you can get hold of either the William Orbit remix of the 'Mix'-era 'Radioactivity' single and the 12" of 'Tour De France' (which never appeared on any LP) these are also fine pieces of the Kraftwerk legacy to own... Just my humble twopenn'orth...

I mentioned this a while back to a friend of mine who is just well-educated enough to think she likes classical music, and she said "Oh, I don't think so, but I can see why you might think that..."

There's definitely truth to that. I guess I was thinking more along the lines of the way they use individual parts within songs. For instance, the structure of a song like 'Out There Somewhere', the way it builds, adding some parts and removing others, only to more or less come back full circle by the end. I don't really think the tempo itself is all that big a factor. Their stuff is for the most part based on a relatively simple pattern, but they explore that pattern to its fullest, which I think shares a lot with some styles of 'classical' music, that is, to take a basic idea or 'theme' and explore it as fully as possible within a single piece (song). -Morey gandalf@wnc.com peace in the struggle to find peace comfort on the way to comfort # 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: Chris Santillo Subject: (orbital) kraftwerk Date: 29 Sep 1998 16:52:34 -0400 I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Kraftwerk album 'Computer World'. Personally, I think it is their third best album (right behind 'Radio Activity' and 'Trans-Europe Express'), but in my mind it's the one that most sounds like Orbital's music. You really can't beat Pocket Calculator (my fav 'pop' song at the moment). Computer World is the best early to mid 80's album (1981) I own. I'm sure CDNow.com or UBL.com has sound clips from all or most of Kraftwerk's material so you can decide for yourself.
