Eeuuurghh.... well, congrats on having that special someone, Mike. Myself and the Filthy Crew (single to a man and woman) decided that we wouldn't sit around and mope on Saturday, so we went out and got absolutely wankered on cocktails in a trendy spot in Manchester. That bloke who plays Steve MacDonald in Coronation Street came up to us and started giving us some lip, but he sloped off when we announced that we were a travelling gay Performing Circus and were big fans of his. Heh heh heh. Homophobic tosser. Anyroad, reason for that story is that my mate Daz was DJing there and did a twenty minute Orbital mix at our request.... Belfast into Are We Here? into TGWTSIHH into Impact. Top stuff, you really wouldn't have thought it could work but our Daz is a handy lad. Apparently the boys have eight tracks finished now... bit of a leap from the last I heard. I seem to recall that they had about twelve done for InSides and spent three months tweaking and deciding which ones to get rid of.... so we may have to wait a while yet.... imminent single release ahoy? Four to the floor.... ace.... it'll be nice to hear 'em burning up the clubs again. I wonder if this move coincides with the Chems/Prodge/Crystal Methods' new-found fame in the States as a result of their big, brash numbers? Just a thought. I'd hate to think there was any compromise on the Hartnolls' part (I'm pretty sure there hasn't been) but it does seem that 'in yer face' tunes have found a mainstream market now, which maybe wasn't the case when the Brown album came out. I think it's probably fair to say that the subtlety of InSides wasn't appreciated by the West Coast beatmonsters (not dissing our American friends there, by the way....!) who made those people famous last year. Just my tuppence... I'll shut up now Have a nice one Filthy Mick (just lost my passport...

This reminded me of something. A while ago, I got ahold of a certain track (mp3, of course :)) that's supposed to be by Goldie. It's called "The Shadow" and I don't exactly have the original, but a Rick Smith mix and an Underworld remix. It sounds like it might be from Goldie, but I never saw that track listed anywhere. It definitively is an Underworld remix, though. If you do happen to come across their discography, please check about this track. I would really appreciate to finaly be sure if its Goldie or not.

Might even be the 100th release special edition (I think there were two 12" releases of that song, with a bunch of remixes). I just can't remember the name of the song. I think it's by Dom & Roland or Dom & Optical, or some combination thereof.

And Gallagher's guitar really does nothing for me. I'd almost say Goldie's lost it: seems to me he thinks he's bigger than the rest of the d 'n' b scene put together. Then again I've not heard the album, so I guess I should reserve judgement. His music was better before he and Rob Playford fell out. cheers, Jon - - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk "Under the bridges of Paris by the brooks of Budapest, what goes around comes around, que sera sera." # 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 ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Feb 1998 21:02:14 -0500 (EST) From: beknowles@vassar.edu (Benjamin Knowles) Subject: (orbital) astro-hartnolls i just remembered something that i forgot to mention to the list awhile ago: being an astronomy and physics major, i couldn't help but point out that the words "attached" and "semi-detached" are terms that describe the so-called roche lobes of _orbiting_ (haha) binary stars. ie. when two stars are rotating around each other, they tend to pull gas off one another, and this gas remains confined within gravitational equipotentials called roche lobes. if the stars are close enough that there is only one lobe, they are "attached." if the lobes share an equipotential (just barely touching) they are "semi-detached." there is also a third classification: "detached" is when the roche lobes do not touch at all. perhaps a song title from the next album, eh? any intro astro textbook should have this stuff, but it's cool that the hartnolls knew about it, or saw it somewhere. i mean, it can't just be a coincidence... by the way, "four to the floor" is exactly what i was wanting to hear them say about the new album. i'm so excited now! keep on truckin, ben *%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%* | | | "Every jumbled pile of person Ben Knowles - Vassar College | | has a thinking part that wonders beknowles@vassar.edu | | what the part that isn't thinking Physics - Astronomy | | isn't thinking of." - TMBG Philosophy - Metaphysics | | | *%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%*=--=*%@%* # 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 ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Feb 1998 21:04:51 -0500 (EST) From: beknowles@vassar.edu (Benjamin Knowles) Subject: (orbital) yer a'peein' travels one more thing: i'm going to paris, budapest and maybe vienna, for spring break. is there anyone who lives in these places, or is familiar with them, that could let me in on some good dance/techno clubs? too many of my friends have told me stories about the bad dance music ("barbie girl," cranberries, etc...) people listen to in many of the more popular places. and that's not meant as a flame on european musical tastes - it's just what i've heard, that's all. thanks, ben # 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 ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Feb 1998 22:33:29 -0000 From: "Baby Diddy" Subject: (orbital) Re: Tribal gathering SCOTT Tribal Gathering is held in Britain (last year at Luton), though this year due to a split amongst promoters there will be two - one at Knebworth (May 23-25) and one at Winchester (May 2/3). If your not in Britain the organisers have plans for two in America and one in Europe this year - no dates or locations have been announced yet. The only band so far mention is Kraftwerk, who are playing at least one of the American shows, but nothing else (Kraftwerk played Luton last year and went down a treat). Bit more bullshit required?

Orbital EPs are deleted but available from bigger/better stores; £4-5 for a single is the going rate. The Autechre EP may prove a bitch to find but its still available mail order from Warp if he has no luck. You may find it easier to get the Warp stuff direct - I've got their catalogue handy and postage outside Britain is £2 (first CD) plus £1 each additional CD and prices are about £1-2 per disc cheaper...

Let's see them do some happy hardcore.. that would kick. Or maybe some jungle.. and I mean real jungle. Or maybe they should whip out some guitars and put out an acoustic album. Yeah.. and I'll write em some lyrics.. ooh.. or maybe they should release some dark nin style stuff. Or maybe some orchestral stuff. Okay.. end the sarcasm. You guys DO realise I was being sarcastic.. seriously though, I don't really care what they release. Just I will DIE if it's some cheesy stuff aimed at cracking the american audience. no selling out.
