I'm afraid I must concur wholeheartedly. I'm not sure if overall the brown is better than In Sides, but it's gotta be close, and It doesn't get any better than Lush.

You know, if I wasn't such a nice guy, I'd flame the hell out of you for this blasphemy.. :) Actually, I agree that a lot of Orbital 2 is fairly repetetive, but I still love it. Don't get me wrong, the first album is awesome, along with Sniv. and In Sides, but something about it just grabs ahold of me and won't let go. I have to listen to it all at once, I can't just listen to one track. > Satan Forever baby..... > Well, yeah. The live version, especially. I think my fave off that album is still Choice, tho.

It includes a rather funny interview, clips from The Box and Halcyon, and a clip of them performing Forever live at the Opera House. (There's also a cool bit on DJ Food for all of you guys open to non-Orbital music). I've taped my copy.. will you tape yours? P.S. To the guy that asked about where they got the "Are We Here" sample, I was actually watching a show on Discovery sometime ago, when they showed this old prof reciting those very lines!

Live version is a lot better....but i LOVE the old version as well. BTW people call it III because it has a III on the front! Its the Satan EP in the UK. Its one of their mothers favourite tracks (along with Speed Freak (not the Moby muckup), Quality Seconds). >Halcyon-I don't think you can over rate this.

I think you're right there.

The lad is always trying to improve himself thinking he would be more appealing.

Yeah, I've read that! and at the end he gets all the bits he's wished for all at the same time and they put him in a cage and everybody laughs at him. The best bit is where he wants to have a blow hole thing off a whale. He gets this big silver fountain thing on his head that spurts water all over the place, great.

I did not say it was solely dancefloor orientated. jusr more dancefloor orientated than anything else, Orbital were part of the motorway rave parties in the early 90s, chime is a rave tune, as is choice. Remind is great to dance to, as is Impact, that doesn't mean it is made for dancing, I love listening to it as well. The first Orbital I heard was Are We Here? - I wasn't into dance music before i heard that, but Orbital got me into different forms of dance stuff. Besides, dancing to music is enjoying music...

What do you guys think about Vapourspace's remix/resequencing of "Are We Here?" The first time I heard it, I thought it was "pure shite" (for all you Brits out there;) ), but the more I listen to it the more I like it. The first two minutes of sampling border on genius, and when the music actually gets started...it's incredible. I'm not really big on remixes, most of the time I like the original version of songs the best, but in this case Vapourspace's remix is right on par with the Hartnoll Boys version.

Date: 03 Oct 1996 11:36:57 -0800 (PST) Not to stray everyone from the topics at hand, I have a bit of a problem which I hope to discover the answer to via all of your aid. I'll be as sucinct as possible. I understand that ORBITAL I should have the following tunes: 1)Belfast (8.05) 2)Moebius (7.00) 3)Speed Freak [moby remix] (5.40) 4)Fahrenheit 3d3 (7.04) 5)Desert Storm (12.05) 6)Oolaa (8.22) 7)Chime (8.01) 8)Satan (6.44) 9)Choice (5.30) 10)Midnight (5.08) BUT, big butt, my ORBITAL I has the following songs: 1)The Moebius (7.01) 2)Speed Freak (7.17) 3)Oolaa (6.15) 4)Desert Storm (12.06) 5)Fahrenheit 303 (8.26) 6)Steel Cube Idolatry (6.24) 7)High Rise (8.23) 8)Chime Live (5.56) 9)Midnight Live (6.53) 10)Belfast* (8.06) ?11?)some unmentioned song (.35) There is obviously a dicrepency. My version lacks SATAN, which I long to hear, and also CHOICE. In their place, I have STEEL CUBE IDOLATRY and HIGH RISE. What gives? My song order is completely wacko, the songs themselves differ, at times, in duration and what's with the LIVE at the end of CHIME and MIDNIGHT? My CD is a lime-tinged yellow with the ORBITAL insignia and a circle with the letters 'CD' in is borders. It has a labelled anatomical hearton the inside of the CD sleave/jacket. Most of the songs correspond, so is this still ORBITAL I? Is my copy just some funkdafied Canadian version?

It's an insult to Orbital's music and the time and effort the brothers put into their tracks. Need you be reminded that the greatest music in all the world (classical music) has no lyrics? There goes that argument, Anne. 2. "Buy a better stereo system..." I intend to. But my problem is the road noise from my car, not the quality of the stereo in the car. I don't like listening to Orbital at my apartment because my neighbors upstairs complain. Therefore, when at home I listen to them on a very nice set of headphones. In other words, I need a new car, not a stereo. And I've been flamed? LOL. 3. I wasn't trying to put down Mr. Digger. I was just suprised that someone with such an odd writing style lives within 6 hours driving time from my house. I have no problems with Digger....he certainly shows much enthusiasm for Orbital's genius. If I've offended him, I sincerely offer an apology. 4. Next time you want to give me hell, do so in private.

He wrote like a *gob* of music. Maybe you should tune in the his 9th symphony. He wrote it when he was completely deaf. 4th movement would be good to start with. If you play it on even a poor system, you can hear (oh my god!) lyrics! Wouldn't you define this one piece of music as classical and hence one of the greatest pieces of music in all the world? Oh, or how about Bach or Mozart? They ring a bell as classical composers? They wrote plenty of tunes *with* lyrics. There goes your argument, Anthony. Also, regarding Orbital, I suppose they put lyrics in their music just to annoy the hell out of you! Guess you skip right over things like "Chime", "Satan", "Wish I had Duck Feet", "The Box" (4th movement--suppose they took a cue from Beethoven?), "Out There Somewhere?", "Dwr Budr", "Sad But New", "Philosophy By Numbers", "Are We Here"...well I think you get the idea. I guess this means Orbital insults their own music according to your standards. [snip] >4. Next time you want to give me hell, do so in private.

I wasn't the one who wasted everyone's bandwidth with you whining about Digger living here in America. You said, "Digger lives in America? Oh my god!" Boy! That was just chock-full of Orbital related information, Anthony. Why didn't you reply privately to him or better yet call him on the phone, since he only lives 6 hours from you. As for people here giving a shit about me and my non-Orbital-related whinings, I've stayed on topic. You were the one who strayed by posting your non-Orbital-related whining.

Merritt" <amerritt@library.ucla.edu> Subject: Re: Rebuttal to offensive lyrics Date: 03 Oct 1996 15:21:27 -0400 (EDT) I think what Anthony is trying to say is that the original music that Orbital creates is perhaps more important than the borrowed samples that they use. Of course the two work in tandem with one another in the long run but the music is pure Orbital whereas the sample in Satan, for example, is a hybrid of Orbital and the Butthole Surfers. > Also, regarding Orbital, I suppose they put lyrics in their music just to > annoy the hell out of you!

I would have to say that I prefer Orbital to use snippets of samples or none at all. I think the vocal versions of The Box and Belfast/Wasted on the Volume series are very sub-par.

I'd agree with you on Belfast, I'm also not so keen on the music on the vocal version. Belfast/Wasted minus Grant Fulton still wouldn't be as beautiful as the original Belfast. However I love The Box vocal version, I think it's the way Grant and Alison's voices come together so well that does the trick. >By the way, since when does Chime have vocals? I guess that's Ray Keith's Mutation, from Mutations (and also on an old FFRR compilation 'Only for the headstrong'). I think this mix is great, it's more ravey than the original, and I love the bass and the breakbeat. The vocals don't particularly add anything, they're just a part of the old "we need a loop of some woman singing something a bit inane" mentality that went around circa '91/'92. To my mind it simply does the job better than the original (just looking at it as a rave tune). If you want something deeper, and more 'typical' Orbital (is there any such thing?), then Chime Crime is the one. And while I'm at it, can anyone tell me why I suddenly stopped recieving messages a week or so ago?

I *hated* the Ray Keith mix when I first heard it, and the vocals still piss me off.

Out There Somewhere? has got vocals, but only in the first passage (I think?) I don't see the vocals in Orbital's music as vocals or lyrics, I see them using the female voice just like any other instrument, 'cos it sounds good, the only Orbital tunes I know that has singing of actual lyrics are Belfast/Wasted and The Box. My mate thought that Orbital were european 'cos he couldn't make out the words to Are We Here? so assumed they were in a foreign language (he acidentally introduced me to Orbital by playing Are We Here? on a dukebox - it was the only Orbital tune he knew!) It was me who told him that there are no lyrics. Choice, LC1 and I Wish I Had Duck Feet I don't consider lyrics, Choice and LC1 is a narrative, I Wish... is a series of samples - they have not been written for the tune itself, though have been selected because of their subject. BTW I changed the subject title to put that nasty argument behind us.

Date: 05 Oct 1996 11:00:16 -0400 That is correct. There was quite a flame-throwing contest a while back about whether that was a fit topic for discussion in this forum. While some people legitimately were concerned with the Brothers' privacy, my own feeling is that perhaps P&P had something they wanted to say about the situation. After all, drugs like Halcion, Valium, and Xanax--which are all benzodiazepenes--are widely recognized to be viciously addicting with terrible withdrawal symptoms. The only thing that is so amazing is that they are still so widely prescribed for all sorts of things, ranging from mild anxiety that is the normal emotional response to a stressful situation, to chronic muscle spasms and other neurological problems. Many doctors dispense them like candy and do not monitor patients appropriately. Not unlike how laudanum was abused up until early in this century. And, of course, the pharmaceutical industry promotes these drugs as a form of psychological cure-all. I apologize in advance to those people who may consider this little dissertation to be unacceptable deviation from the prescribed discussion topic, rather than an attempt at explanation.

I wouldn't mind it if it was about ten seconds after the end of Halcyon+on+on, but it doesn't give the tune "time to breathe" if you know what I mean, it ruins the mood.

It was a clever time sych track where two voices are one and then go out of time and slowly remerge. Cause we can all do that cant we...should take minutes ;) Its like having Attached after Are We Here ... 2 different contents of music...one more chilling than the other. Orbital dont create a ambient album or a dance album (as you know...cause ya got them) , they make an album with different music types on. So you will not have peaceful vibe running through the whole album. I understand your point of the track is shite and all that. But its not there to dance to...its creative and experimental.

Halycon track name was used for the drug reference but the NME interview that followed was liable and allegedly out of context. There was a lot of regrets about the interview and P&P are not drug messengers, if u know what i mean. The way you explained the drug related track in this email was the way it should have been done by the original person (them months back).

Times Fly being the case in point - that was specifically over 25 minutes (thus ruling it out of the charts as it wasn't just comprised of remixes). I remember reading an interview at the time saying that they knew it'd be banned from the charts, yet wouldn't work track times around that ruling - the track length is whatever it eventually works out at.

Of course, all their other stuff is great too, but it would be silly to name them all now wouldn't it? :-) In Sides is presently my fave album. Currently studying in London (though missed the Albert Hall gig 'cos of exams). Did catch Orbital at Norwich Oct '94 (Sniv tour) and Leeds this Easter.

I was born in Coral Gables (Miami) Florida, lived in South Carolina (Pageland) for awhile, but came back to FL years ago to Daytona Beach and am currently living in Orlando. I first heard Orbital on college radio 'Chime' & 'Satan' and grabbed their 'Orbital I' CD as soon as it hit the stores here in the US. Now I feel cheated after hearing how most of you like the UK version of that CD better. Do any of you know of a place I can order this version from (preferrably online)? Having 'Satan' on there is nice, but I would like to hear the other songs I'm missing from it, and to hear a version of 'Speed Freak' that's not adulterated by Moby. _____________________________________________________ _|_ |_ |_ _ _ _| e-mail: ebbhead@iag.net (-|_)|_)| )(-(_|(_| http://www.iag.net/~ebbhead/ _____________________________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: wycliffe@ix.netcom.com Subject: Re: countries.

Overland Park is about 15 minutes from Kansas City, Missouri (if you know where that is). I'm estimating that this area has perhaps a dozen (at most) or so Orbital fans but I've yet to meet any. Last November when I visited the most popular music store here I saw 3 copies of Green, 3 copies of Brown, and 2 copies of Snivilization. I went there two days ago and they had the same exact number of copies...I'm guessing nobody has bought any. BTW....it WAS 3 copies of Snivilization but I bought that 3rd one myself about 2 years ago.

He's calling directory enquiries, I reckon. On listening again last night, I reckon The Prodigy's 'We eat rhythm' is ace too, much better than the live versions I've heard. Is it just me, or does anyone else find the Prodigy's 'rock 'n' roll' live antics a bit tedious? I've never felt that dance music "needs a more rock 'n' roll vibe".

Totally with you on this one mate - I've always felt (well since Glasters '94 at least) that Orbital proved something to the masses - that it is entirely possible to gain emotional response from live, purely electronic music. Not since classical has non-vocal live music elicited such a massive 'spine-tingle' response. I listen to the tape of Radio 1's Glasters broadcast and it can still bring me to the verge of tears. The Prods are appealing to a different mindset, so to avoid a flamefest I shall say that I appreciate the attraction, but amongst myself and friends, the Prodigy are an in-joke, starting from the picture on the inside of the album a couple of years ago - you know the one with Liam Howlett cutting the rope bridge and gesticulating.

I would like to point out that I do like the music, Experience is a bloody good album, and Music for the jilted generation is astounding in places (the narcotic suite). I guess I would just prefer techno to be a bit more faceless again, that used to set it apart from traditional rock music. Hope I don't upset anyone with that. I'm simply not keen on techno compromising too much to appeal to the rock/indie crowd. I'd prefer they accept it on it's own terms. And, to me, the Prodigy live tend to sound like a DAT with a few ad-libs on top. Jon Green: zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk "The less effort one puts in, the greater satisfaction one gains from a good result" -J.

( i live in Scotland ) Here, and i thought in the rest of the world, Orbital released a new album a couple of months ago, titled "In-Sides". ( Get it? Think of all the sleeve artwork! ) It is composed of 6 "pieces" of music. One of these is "P.E.T.R.O.L., which first appeared on the soundtrack for the Sony Playstation game "Wipeout". Another is a reworking of a track Orbital did for the "help" LP, a record who's proceeds went to Warchild, a charity involved in helping those who suffered/are still suffering in the Bosnian conflict in Eastern Europe. As expected, the album is very different from all those before. The music has been described as being the first example of a "new genre", the "Techno concerto". It is very classical sounding, with the first single from it, "The Box", being much like a film soundtrack, very Ennio Morricone influenced. It's widely regarded as the best yet, and a great improvement ( in my humble opinion ) on the patchy "Snivilisation" LP I would have expected you to have found this by now - if not, it's an essential purchase, one of the best LPs of 96 so far. Happy listening, if you want to mail me back, by adress is: david.campbell.100@strath.ac.uk Bye bye for now, David > > Can anyone tell me when Orbital's next album will come? > > And to all of you who love electronic music, I will advice you to buy Electric > Universe' album "One Love".

Jon Not TOO off topic as Orbital couldn't be more different in their live show than Prodigy yet they are the two best dance acts around at the moment. Prodigy are more of a rock and roll band anyway, with more lyrics and the focus on Keith and the black guy who tries to look like an evil zombie all the time. (for a hilarious article read the NME interview (when they were the cover) and they went mad when the interviewer called them a couple of Bez's ("Absolutely no fucking way are we Bezzes man...."))

On this question I will hear everybodys opinion. Personaly I think the brown album is the best and that Halcyon is the best track. Does anyone agree?

It just wigs me every time I hear it. But I do love Halcyon, in fact I was listening to it when I recieved your mail. I will have to agree with you that my favorite is the brown album... The first half just flows, the rest of it is kinda a cool down. Kinda like a trip: really hard at first then tapers off to a more beautific side. DJRavery 1996 DJRavery Communications Inc.

To me, Attached sounds like the pointer to the new style they explored on In Sides, it's long, builds gradually and has a similar kind of vibe to a lot of In Sides (Out there somewhere? especially). I would probably agree, Attached is my fave from Sniv now that it's all settled down (it normally takes me a year or two to work out which is my favourite track on an album).

I gathered that Times Fly was ineligible because of the >2x12" and 2x7" formats. The ruling is that a CD Single of different material is not allowed to be a) over 25 mins, b) have more than four tracks. The exception here is singles that's tracks are comprised solely of remixes, these can have any number of tracks, and also have a longer running time (about 45 mins I think). 2x12" etc are banned as they are seen as one 12" plus a freebie. You are not allowed to give away freebies with a single (like an Iron Maiden denim patch!), else that'll cause it to get banned as well. >>More a case of record company intervention maybe? > >Haven't Orbital always prided themselves on doing what they want, not what >the label wants?

Having said that, glad to have them - the Halcyon mix has a great start but seems to lack the punch somehow, looking forward to the live Satan and still forming opinions about the non-album tracks. Still think that Diversions is the best 'non-album'.

Date: 11 Oct 1996 13:45:32 -0700 (PDT) Hi fellow orbiters, My name is Jeff Fanno and I live in wonderful San Diego, CA. I've been an Orbital fan since I first heard Chime many moons ago, and have been a raving lunatic ever since. My friend Mark and myself had the great opportunity to see Orbital, Ultramarine, and Meat Beat Manifesto about four years ago during some MTV sponsored gig for only ten bucks. Needless to say the show ripped and we couldn't wait to get our next dose of these electro music mavens. Didn't think we'd have to wait until June of this of year to see them again, but it was well worth the wait. Saw them at Organic '96 along with the Chemicals, Underworld, MBM, Loop Guru, and Orb. Unquestionably, Orbital stole the show, the combination of visuals plus mind-expanding music, was the best I've ever witnessed. Anyone know if Orbital is touring in the western US again? I've heard rumours, but that is all. As far as my favorite tracks, there are so many to choose from but right now I like the 28 minute version of The Box, if you can call that a song. I LOVE the brown album, especially with a Bose subwoofer under my bed for a bass response that is as good as sex. Impact USA is also near and dear to my heart, currently and I hope that Orbital can add this to their live EP along with that Belinda Carlile(sic) snippet and the live version of Halcyon and Out There Somewhere. Orbital makes soooo many good tunes that it is pick just one that rules, but I will say that Quality Seconds is my least favorite, I'll leave that one for metalhead (not Goldie) tweekers.

My favorite album is now (officially!) In Sides. The brothers really topped themselves with their latest. Going back to all the other albums I noticed there are some weak tracks which really pull down the rest of the album. Stuff like Quality Seconds, Science Friction and Crash and Carry kinda dilute the toxic mix of Are We Here, Attached, and Forever. On the Brown, standouts like Halcyon, Impact, and Walk Now raise the bar. Green is alleviated by the incredible Satan, Midnight, and Belfast. In Sides doesn't have a *weak song...even P.E.T.R.O.L. is pretty damned good. *a weak Orbital song is still better than 99% of the rest ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Digger <Digger@Jorsm.Com> Subject: Re: Best album/track Date: 11 Oct 1996 17:34:46 -0500 >At 10:08 11/10/96 +0200, s758@ii.uib.no wrote: >>What is Orbital's best album/track? > >My favourite these days is In Sides, Out There Somewhere?

This is all one track but it was repressed as a radio edit and a slightly shortened origianl edit. This was presumabley before this regulations you speak of came into effect. I know that The orb wanted to release Pomme Fritz as a single but their record label (island?) put it out as an album because it was so long and each track was its own tune. I know that this hasn't got much to do with Orbital but it does prove that record companies normally do what they want and that singles have been made which are limited only by the length of a CD.

Well, my brother has done sequences of a few songs on his equipment, but I don't think much of it is in MIDI. He could probably translate it over into general MIDI if anyone is that interested.

Date: 15 Oct 1996 00:33:56 -0400 (EDT) I just saw a CD in the store I work in tonight and picked it up immediately. I picked it up because of the FFRR sticker on it, and discovered that it has a version of Are We Here? on it that was "sequenced in Vapourspace" according to the sticker on the front. It's a jungle compilation called 'Counterforce'. I was just wondering if anyone else is familiar with this version. It says it was 'previously unavailable'. Of course, that's early '95 when this CD came out... It's a pretty kickin' remix, considering (as i must assume the vapourspace reference was correct) that it was not done by the brothers. On another note, I *think* that I have collected (not out of any overwhelming intent) ever 'official' recording of Halcyon that has been released. I have: 1. Halcyon single 2. Orbital 2 (brown album) 3. MK soundtrack 4. Hackers soundtrack 5.

Its part of the Trupak set....if you have the whole of it....limited compilation cd of orbital tracks...then again keep it under lock and key. It was recorded at Glastonbury. Id say if you really want to extend your Halycon collection go for the live tracks. 1 with Belinda Sample and 1 with Bon Jovi and Belinda Sample.

Date: 15 Oct 1996 13:41:23 BST Bit of news i havent announced as yet....again ive been told i can mention this....and there is still a lot i cant say yet! Everyone in the UK would have heard of Jools Holland....hell even the rest of you guys/girls might have done. Well Jools has a show on UK BBC2 with live performances...and its 99 percentage sure that Orbital will be doing a live track b4 Christmas. The track WILL be SATAN (confirmed) but the negotiating is taking place over what time is allocated to them. At the mo...Jools allows 6 minutes for a group (about 2 tracks for the usual indie stuff!) but he is extending that to 8 minutes. Hopefully over the next week ill know if this is Definately on. Other things happening....mentioned about Sally Harding....yknow about the Live Ep (only just mentioned on the Official site ;) ). Also Paul is hoping to agree terms for a remix on a Sci Fi Theme Tune Compilation Album. The track Paul mentioned to me he was considering doing was U.F.O. Star Trek had already gone. Thats ALL for now. BTW someone mentioned FSOL and "My Kingdom" - Im playing it now and its a brilliant EP - very themey (just like Orbital) but of course not like Orbital. Recommended.

It's a most killer movie and a must for Techno fans and Hackers alike. I've kept my eye out to see when it's released on video - well you can get it on laserdisc right now but it's going to be a bit on the VHS. -- For those who think Sunscreems dead let me rephrase something. Their O3 album with the kennedy stuff on it is far from orbital. Change or Die which came out in early 96 is closer and New Dark Times which came out a week ago is unbelievably like Orbital but on a more clean air environment , nothing to ground on just water and air. But Fuck we're here to talk about Orbital - I was just trying to get that Sunscreem stuff on the web site at AOL.COM - I obviously screewed something up. Anyone know about still being able to grab a copy of the Lush 3.1 Single?? - sorry to say I didn't know there was one, but now I do and I want it. --I hear this Josh Wink dude does killer programing - anyone heard him? and is his stuff worth the money??
