ORBULLETINS # help is available by emailing "info orbulletins" to majordomo@xmission.com. # We're now on the web at http://www.theorb.com a couple of bits of info for you... i. there's an Thomas Felhmann compilation coming out soon, called 'Flow 90-98'. it features two tracks with co-writing credits for Alex Paterson, namely: 'for the sixth time' and 'teufel'. ii. the next 'proper' album has a working title of 'Cydonia', and is due for Feb '99 (hopefully). i've known this last one for ages, but was told to keep quiet about it. however, as it's gonna be announced in tomorrow's NME, i might as well spill all... iii. the band have recorded a Bee Gee's cover version with Robbie (Take That) Williams for a charity album due out on October 12th in the UK. they've done 'I Started A Joke'. the album is called 'Gotta Get A Message To You'. i found out about it back in March/May (?), the last time i went down to Trident Studios - Robbie was recording his album there at the time... anyroad-up, that's it for now. cheers. -- Smiley ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Smiley@cracl.demon.co.uk (Smiley) Subject: ORBULLETIN: UFOff news...

ORBULLETINS # help is available by emailing "info orbulletins" to majordomo@xmission.com. # We're now on the web at http://www.theorb.com The U.F.Off page at www.theorb.com is hereby officially launched. Please visit for track details, sleeve art, some gorgeous downloadable PC desktops (Mac coming soon, we hope), and streaming RealAudio versions of "Micky Mars (7" mix)" and the promo-only "Little Fluffy Clouds (adam freeland tsunami one remix)". Other goodies may be forthcoming depending on the whims of the promo gods. As far as I know the only track info that should be new to most of you reading this is that the first disc of U.F.Off includes a remix of "Oxbow Lakes" as an unlisted bonus track (possibly andy's sparce mix from the Orbscure Trax promo but I haven't had a chance to A/B them yet).
