Don't get me wrong, I like 'em, I just thought the part of the set on tv was a bit pedestrian. I expected a bit more of them, it felt like you were waiting forever for something to happen all the time. I guess the atmosphere isn't the same at home as it is in a tent covered with shit though!

Ahh..Mud Date: 01 Jul 1998 15:10:57 +0100 Hello All, I recently awoken from a festival induced slumber of about 18 hours. Nice. And I still feel tired. For those who were there.. did you go to the Herbal High Tent?. *Wow*. Banging hard house and techno for the masses. Superb atmosphere. And many Mitsubishi's in sight. ;-) A quick review : Underworld - Good set, although took a long time to get the crowd moving (or was it just that everyone was stuck in the mud?). Mr Hyde was well into Moon-Monkey mode and appeared to be under the influence of much more than "Lager Lager Lager". Good set. Bentley Rythmn Ace - Excellent. Great set, great crowd reception, despite the early hour. Banco de Gaia - er.. didn't show. Bastards. Fatboy Slim - Very popular set, with the boy Cook whipping the crowd up for more. Apparently he had to be dragged off the decks. Great start, great finish - I missed the middle - obtaining more of that Pear Cider. Very nice. Auteche - Missed them.. Slept through it. They were on at lunch time. Who ever scheduled that needs their head examined. Robbie Williams - Great laugh. Slagged off Take That et al all the way through, and did a amusing punk version of Back for Good. Crowd loved it. Tony Bennett - Wicked. Made listening to all those old records worthwhile. Apparently System 7 played as well, but it was raining heavily at the time, and the mud made it a real struggle to get anywhere. Good festival, although my tent is in tatters and my clothes all have a brown tinge. And try dancing in rubber boots. Until Next year.... p.s England may have lost the match... but we have the moral victory. -- Tim W . email: tim@jlwynne.demon.co.uk . timothy.wynne@stud.umist.ac.uk "Shop now, riot later" .

My favourite track is the Broadcast one, but I wasn't too impressed with their album the one time I listened to it. The Red Snapper track is better than their new single, and the Autechre track goes some way towards making up for their album getting delayed. The Aphex/Squarepusher track was unremarkable the first time I listened to it, but I listened to it again, louder, earlier today and when it gets going it's great, though not as unconventional as I expected. >Boards of Canada I though their track was a bit dull. More like Boreds of Canada ;-) But I do love 'Everything you do is a balloon' from the 'Skampler' compilation and one of their old singles. >I've heard Autechre have a hard sound in some tracks...? I'd say harsh is probably a better word. Harsher the later you get, up to 'Chiastic Slide', then 'Cichlisuite' is smoother. cheers, jon - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk "Raise your hands if you think you understand.

My ever-alert pal Killpatient mentionnet to me that I could sneak in a recorder, good idea! But I've never been at that sort of gigs, only ordinary commercial-type everybody-sitting-in-a-theatre kinds of shows... I was wondering, How much careful should I be about hiding the recorder, especially at the entrance? Do they search people for stuff like bottles,cameras,etc? And then there's the sound quality issue... I would of course use an external microphone, but should I stay away from the speakers, close, center, back, front, etc etc? And what sort of recorder should I use? There are normal-cassete recording walkmans, and those minicassettes that reporters use but I don't think they're a good idea, and also, there are portable digital recorders, how about those? And finally... Any good ideas about how to hide the thing so that its not too complicated changing tapes? *of course* I will make anything I record available to you guys in mp3 :) datzall 4 today :) Derf +------------------------------------+ | even a stopped clock | | gives the right time twice a day | | | | fourni01@gel.ulaval.ca | | http://www.gel.ulaval.ca/~fourni01 | | ICQ 4731515 | +------------------------------------+ # 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: "Mehul Parekh" <mpp001@hotmail.com> Subject: (orbital) stuff Date: 01 Jul 1998 21:29:40 PDT Alright, first off, I am trying to get a hold of Orb's little fluffy clouds which I saw on 2 cds: adventures beyond the ultraworld (2cd) and the live album (2cd). Which is better? Second, what is 'Evil Santa'? I read somewhere that a mag. in the UK did a review on it? I've heard of it but I thought it was a joke. Does the cd in fact exist? And if so, what are the tracks? And last, I spotted another 'The Box' today. Anyone want? $11.99 + 5% tax + s/h (if you want it). Let me know soon. Maybe someone in Des Moines, IA will take it:)...that would be a dream come true, a Orbital fan in my town except for me. I think I keep Orbital alive in my town. Over and out.

In that commercial, the announcer is talking about being all-american, and they show clips of parks, etc. In these clips, there is a bit from the video for Lush with a couple of old ladies enjoying some ice cream...Not really exciting, but what is lately? Another item: Have any of you seen the 187 Lockdown video for a little crap song they like to call "Kung Fu". Well, the director of the vid is a man named Steve Price. Could our famed Orbital info-guru have gotten so frustrated with the scene that he has stooped to directing crappy Speed Garage videos?

I never really thought the Orbit would be that great a synth module, least of all the kind orbital would be using.. I'm sure it has some good sounds, as sampling technology has gotten quite impressive, but I can't imagine it having more than very limited uses to anyone who already has a good deal of synth gear. Plus, I have something of a personal vendetta against e-mu systems over some equipment i purchased from them last year.. -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: "morpheus" <morpheus@axionet.com> Subject: (orbital) A night with Carl Cox Date: 03 Jul 1998 01:42:07 -0700 Hey, here's an interesting party review for all of yah I have to say one thing, CARL COX is AMAZING. That entire night was amazing. I danced extremely hard that night and I'm still aching from it (twas Tuesday night). If any of you get a chance, check Grant Plant, a DJ from LA off of Phatt Phunk Records and Skylab 2000, also off of Phatt Phunk Records. They are both amazing. Grant Plant is the most hype and exciting DJ that I have ever seen. He was grooven and jumping all around while spinning some superb music. He did some bizare stuff too. Spun a beat from an Orbital song (still can't remember which one, although it's off of brown or green) then went into an amazing remix of Born Slippy and then into Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd and then mixed that into some more house music. What a set. Skylab played mostly breakbeat stuff which I wasn't expecting. And Carl Cox, he is just the man. He's a presence of amazing DJing skills and musical talent. I didn't recognize anything that he was spinning, except he used the tune from Faithless' Insomnia. I didn't watch his entire set since he started at 5:00 am and i had been dancing since 12:00. I did however catch almost two hours of his set.

I have to disagree. The mixed episodes of Amp were the most horrible things I've ever seen. The only time I ever saw a single mix that was on was when they showed clips from the X-Mix series. I mean, I'm sure it's more difficult to mix videos than records, but overlapping the drum parts on songs that aren't the same tempo is just bad. I would much rather hear the songs in their entirety than listen to 30 seconds of different tempo drum clashing with each other. There was also very little consideration given to the moods of the songs. Mixing trip hop with high speed techno would be weird even if it *was* possible to get them the same speed (assuming you even wanted to in the first place...) Anyway, not only have the episodes *not* been badly mixed, the track listings for the shows is much closer to the quality they had on the very first few episodes. Has anyone else seen the new AMP? I'm curious if I'm all alone on this one.. I can probably gather up the listings for all 3 episodes if anyone is interested.. -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: gandalf@wnc.com Subject: Re: (orbital) The Saint Video - Full version onlin Date: 06 Jul 1998 15:40:56 -0500 ZE>In a message dated 98-07-05 23:58:16 EDT, you write: ZE><< On a similar note, they showed this video on amp 3 weeks ago.

ZE>does it have like twelve different scenes on it and a bunch of people are ZE>running around or is that something else? The screen is split into 9 identical boxes, and each box is basically a spot with a camera set on a tripod. All of the cameras are set up near each other, more or less. It looks like they're all centered around about 1 city block. Some indoors, some outdoors. Anyway, it's basically just people going about their everyday lives, sometimes people walk off one screen only to walk onto another. Then in the part of the song where it breaks down and plays the bit from the intro again, the screens slow down and something goes haywire on most of them. Some boxes fall down, a water pipe breaks, and so on. I guess that's not much help, but it's the basic idea. I'm not sure what (if anything) it has to do with the song itself.. (and i never noticed roger moore in it) -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: jon masciana <jmascian@UCSD.Edu> Subject: (orbital) Trading with Loopz Date: 06 Jul 1998 17:49:09 -0700 Hi all, Just want to make a gripe publicly about a transaction that went foul with Loopz (steve Price), because he doesn't want to trade with me now---after I sent him some Orbital cdrs but refuses to return the cds I sent him even though he doesn't want to trade anymore. I'm wondering if anyone else has had a bad experience trading with Loopz, email me if so. I really don't like people who think it's okay to dishonor trades and get away with it. here's the full story, if anyone's interested (if you're not interested, press <delete> now): I agreed to trade him a few Orbital cdr compilations that he wanted a few tracks from. he said he would tape a few remixes for me, (I would have rather traded cdrs, but oh well..) THis was over a month ago, I sent him the cds and hadn't heard anything until I repeatedly reminded him to send my tape. he claimed he was busy and had forgotten. Here's the mail: Loopz: >>>Definatly this week....its been a mad the last few days - ive changed >>>projects which meant working in a different city - but it will be ok I wrote: >>Thanks--please let me know, I'm sure you're an honest trader, but it has >>been awhile... He wrote in response: im the best trader in the land - loads of people will tell u that. Thats why i get this busy. Just dont distribute it on cd - i need your word on this - people have already told me what your plan was. <snip> Hmmm...he seemed to think I had a massive plan to sell his tape recordings to everyone on the Internet. I had no intention of selling his tape or putting it on cdr and selling it. He was bothered by the fact that I may trade with people in the future with these recordings. Which I possibly would since I love to trade with people. Now...please tell me, why would he be bothered by trading when he does it himself? And why didn't he make himself clear when we initially did the trade... Anyway, he didn't like my response to this---here's what I wrote in response: >And is this any different than what you are doing? I sent you cds of some >orbital tracks and you are sending me a tape of some orbital tracks. What >is wrong with trading Orbital tracks? Orbital is not losing any money---I >would much prefer to buy the originals and pay paul and phil's bank account >to be honest. But the tracks you and I both have are out of print. If you >have a problem with trading with me, I suggest you send back the cds or >else YOU will be blacklisted. As I stated previously, I am not inteding to <snip, I ramble...> >Now the issue is trading--why is it not okay with you to trade Orbital >stuff when you are doing exactly that? Explain me your reasons and I'll >consider making an agreement with you about your taped stuff.

If >that's cool--let me know. Thanks, And here's what he wrote in response (can you believe this came from the founder of the Orbital mailing list?): Loopz wrote: I dont agree with your plan and i dont like your attitude. >I suggest you send back the cds or else YOU will be blacklisted And as for that - all i can say is GO Blacklist me then!

I managed to tape almost all of them from episode five (105) on in SP - I'll still tape these, but in EP probably (not that it matters as I'll probably never watch them again anyway, heh) I did enjoy seeing the old Kraftwerk video (finally!) last Sunday, even if Ralf's vocals didn't sync with the performance visuals whatsoever. :) And I must say seeing *complete* videos can be a plus. Maybe it's just that the show is now on while I sleep instead of when I stay up late - maybe I just miss the opening where they list off the menu of artists appearing - maybe I miss the Vectrex tracings - but ultimately, I'm glad the show is still on at all.

Jon has tried to slate me here and on a few newsgroups....very stupid and immature. I could alter his emails and copy them here like he did with mine....pointless. MY side of the story is i asked if Jon had a spare Omen 12 inch remix.....Jon said he could sort it out.....but only if i put some rare Orbital stuff on CDR after . I refused. But then a package arrived. He had sent me 2 CDRs with Orbital remix stuff on it and said theres your Omen remixes....mmmm....no it aint they are illegal CDR copies of a legit Orbital release. Not what i wanted and not what i asked for. It went from a "you owe me cause i sent u this" - my reply - "i never asked for CDRs!" to "can you put some of the new material on CDR for me?" - my reply - "you are joking...right?". Trading should be agreed up front....not changed after you sent the wrong item. Also i dont agree with the bribe attempts he made. if you dont do this...ill do that. I basically told him to fuck himself....people know my views on official Orbital releases on CDRs and i certainly wont be bribed. You only have to ask Aimee (when she comes back) - she has a very similar view. Bootlegs are fine....official releases - i wont do! There is also another bad penny off the list that was acting alongside as i got a few sad emails from him stating that he had a trade ready with Jon for a CDR that Jon was asking me to do. Ive also told him what my views are only to get a bad tempered reply...slating my relationship/friendship with Orbital (why - i dont know). Im tempted to write his name here but im not gonna stoop that low. If people want to know then ill tell them in private. And yes...i was going to send the CDRs back but after all the crap i got from him....i certainly aint wasting a penny,cent,pound or dollar on that wanka. Ill pass it on to someone for free....and they can decide if they want to return them....any ideas ? Overall ... Im glad i stuck with my principles and let Jon do what he did.

I cannot sit here and let Steve think he's actually saying something with any truth in it. his story is utter bull, here's what he said in his mail to the list: >Omen 12 inch remix.....Jon said he could sort it out.....but only if i >put some rare Orbital stuff on CDR after .

Btw the CD i need must have the Omen Remixes (The Chariot,The Tower,Wheel of Fortune and The Fool ) on it. The whole point of the trade is get a good recording of the tracks after my 12 inch went scratch mad! :) Let me know either way.... Thanks Steve >>>> Steve wrote this to you guys: >It went from a "you owe me cause i sent u this" - my reply - "i never >asked for CDRs!" to "can you put some of the new material on CDR for >me?" - my reply - "you are joking...right?". These replies never took place, and if they did, I would like to ask Steve to prove it. Steve NEVER once told me that he did not want a cdr of the Omen remixes. he had no problems with accepting it and no problems with keeping it even though he has not fulfilled his side of the trade. I asked him to send the cdr back, and he sent me a very nasty email about it. The only purpose I have with this mail is to advise people not to deal with a dishonest trader. I do not wish to start any controversy, I am just stating the facts--that's it. It should be obvious by now that I know what I'm talking about, and I'm not lying about anything.

LOW owL remix Low (Vernon Yard) MOGWAI Kicking a Dead Pig + Mogwai Fear Satan Remixes (Jetset) Low and Mogwai make expansive rock with plenty of built-in space - perfect territory for remixers. Moving from ambient drift to uneasy trip-hop, owL's best cuts fix on Low's brooding melodies, like Neotropic's dark looping and Tranquility Bass' unlikelly "party mix." Per usual, Mogwai's two-CD set pits understated guitar figures against peals of moise, u-ziq and Alex Empire get beat-crazy, but the idea is rock mutation, not murder.

It's my favorite. Khaki's Groove: It has lot's of different people dancing very weird and cool. The background song kicks ass. 2nd favorite, still good. The only one of the 3 that sucks is the "rock" one w/ Crystal Method....it's a shame ;) BUT.............Anyway...The Khaki's Swing commercial has that camera effect....It's SOOOOO cool, it has the people like frozen mid-air and then pans around them and continues dancing.

Sorry to rain (or pour water in some other way) on your bonfire, but it's on the Charly CD we got here, a year or more before we even got Fire/Jericho. No exclusive tune I'm afraid.

I don't know how that's going to change with the new, even more ridiculous than the old ones, rules about what qualifies for the single chart. You're right though, we do seem to fare pretty well over here, thanks to our techno scene being so well established.

But still, they played nice percussions and the beats were cool in the few techno songs they actually played.

That song is absolutly horrible I totally disagree. I loved Fatboy Slim's _Better Living Through Chemistry_ and when I heard Rockafeller Skank I loved that as well. I am VERY surprised to see this song is making it big. I played it around my friends and they didn't like it at all (but they don't like electronic music). I think it would be too repetitive for the mainstream. Plus the stretched out sample in the middle of the song seems very non-mainstream to me. I just think MTV and local radio stations have successfully shoved it down everyone's throat but it doesn't mean it's crap. Fatboy Slim uses samples in a lot of his work and this is no exception... > firt hearing it in 96), but Cook is lame now.

It's some of the most organic sounding electronic music you'll hear, very upbeat (as in happy), sort of mellow breakbeats. I read somewhere (mixmag maybe?) that they are the ones that find a melody the a flowing stream or the chirping of birds. I'm not sure that's exactly quite accurate, but they are good at conjuring up the _feeling_ of those kind of sounds. Picture the song from Sally's with a less driving beat. I dunno, check 'em out..

Actually, when I went to see them, I was there mainly to see BT, who was opening for them. While his (extremely short) set was really good, they just put on a show. It wasn't just the music, it was the vibe. The whole club was rocking, totally into it. I'd say at least half the people there had no idea who they had come to see, and it looked like every one of them was converted that night. The whole place was bouncing.

This camera trick has definitely improved since the MBM video; there's some jumpiness in between the individual camera images --not like in today's commercials. I first remember seeing this smoother version in the Lost In Space television previews of the movie so I'm thinking the process was improved by the film's special effects budget and then subsequently used in the other commercials (kinda like how the liquid metal effect was used after they invented it in Terminator 2) # 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: "Jason Crain" <detrius@inetnow.net> Subject: Fw: Message Bounce: Fw: (orbital) Suggestions Date: 16 Jul 1998 13:35:33 -0400 i havent heard a lot of jungle bands. but from what i have heard, apollo 440 is one of the better bands. >-----Original Message----- >From: morpheus <morpheus@axionet.com> >Hey >Was at a rave this past weekend that had a wicked jungle room, >and now I want to get my hands on some good jungle cd's.

I'm with you on this one.. The song is _okay_ musically, but nothing spectacular. For Josh wink, I think it rates pretty high. I've never been even remotely impressed with his songwriting skills. Higher State is a fun slice of acid insanity, but songs like 'are you there' and 'don't laugh' are just ridiculous. The video for Simple Man was pretty amusing, though.. -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: Morey Gamble <gandalf@wnc.com> Subject: Re: (orbital) Suggestions Date: 16 Jul 1998 14:38:40 -0400 morpheus@axionet.com wrote: > Hey > Was at a rave this past weekend that had a wicked jungle room, and now I > want to get my hands on some good jungle cd's. Can anyone suggest some good > artists or some good comps? What kind of jungle was it? Dark, hard, jazzy? I can give you tons of suggestions if you can narrow it down a bit.. here's a few: Artists: Roni Size/Reprazent - New Forms - maybe the best drum & bass album ever. jazz/hip-hop/r&b/jungle fusion. Photek - Modus Operandi - minimal, sparse, pretty dark, some of the most impressive drum programming you'll hear. Boymerang - Balance of the Force - closer to photek than anything else, but with more emotion. Spring Heel Jack - 68 Million Shades - unlike anything else, lots off jazz/classical samples/sounds, very interesting. Adam F - Colours - some jazzy, some dark, some both. not the best as a whole, but it has a coupla amazing songs. Alex Reece - So Far - Jazz-step distilled down to it's essence. a little cheesy at times, but again, has some classics. Goldie - Timeless - It's the one everybody knows - Some of it's crap, some of it's brilliant. (seems to be a trend in jungle) John B - Visions - I just got this one, and it's pretty groovy. 2 disks (Synthetic and Organic) Compilations: Logical Progression - LTJ Bukem & Co. - chilled out classics, one disc mixed, one unmixed. Get vol. 1 &2. (3 is out but i won't get to hear it until later this afternoon when i go by FedEx to pick mine up) (ltj bukem, blame, pfm, peshay, intense( Torque - No U-Turn - Dark, scary, hard, you name it. Tech-Step galore. (ed rush, nico, dj trace) Platinum Breaks - Metalheadz - Vol 1 is nothing but classics. It has alex reece, photek, goldie, adam f. Vol. 2 is much the same, but is more of the new metalheadz crowd (source direct, lemon d, dillinja) V Classic - dark and jazzy. (roni size, dj krust, dillinja, goldie, scorpio, and more) (2 volumes, the best songs on both volumes are by dj krust) Music Box - early incarnation of the reprazent crew - dj krust, roni size, dj die, dj suv, bill riley, scorpio. chilled out, jazzy, pretty minimal. Wow..I put a lot more into that than I had planned to... If you want any more info, just lemme know.. -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: Tim <tim@jlwynne.demon.co.uk> Subject: (orbital) Fat Boy Cook Date: 16 Jul 1998 12:41:02 +0100 Well, Although none of you probably care about my opinion, I always have thought that Cook produced great commercial dance.

Can anyone suggest some= good >artists or some good comps? Oooooohhhh yes! Anything from Liquid sky Records is GOOD try... This is Jungle Sky 1: Excellent, not the "scary" more "drum n'bass" Jungle, but more samples and voices. The best Jungle CD I own. This is Jungle Sky II: Pretty good, a little more "drum n'bass" than Jungle. Still lots of samples though I (heart) NY Jungle: Okay but I wouldn't recomend it that much. This is Jungle Sky IV: Very good, some samles some more "drum n'bass" stuff. Ali Rocks is a very cool blend of Citar and jungle. This is Jungle Sky V: VERY good drum n'bass. Not as many samples, concentrates more of the drums. The 1.8.7 tracks and the stuff from Soulslinger is good Yellow Note: We are not the beatles: It should be easy to find this one and it's pretty good. Drum n'bass with a hinmt of some ambient influence. 1.8.7 when worlds collide: Don't have it yet but it's on the way! DJ Soulslinger: Don't believe: Very good Album... DJ Soulslinger: The Abducted Remixes: VERY good if you can find it. That's all Liquid Sky stuff. If you have trouble finding it, or want some more info, or what the cases look like go to http://www.forcedexposure.com and search for label "Jungle Sky". Other than that stuff, try, I think it's called "Jungle: The Sound of the Underground". Good comp...some stuff from Jungle Sky 1. You might also check out any T-Power albums you can find. He's on JS a lot...I don't have any albums but I am ordering one that I found. If you want more I can look through my collection and see what else I have.

The Torque compilation, and anything by Ed Rush, Fierce, Nico, or DJ Trace. Hmm, also try the 'Aphrodite Recordings' mix CD. You can get all this stuff at Breakbeat Science (www.breakbeatscience.com) For Jazzy stuff, look for EZ Rollers (probably vinyl only) and check out V Classic volume 1 (Hell, there's a song on there called 'It's Jazzy', and another one called 'It's a Jazz Thing'..) Another place you (and everyone else) might be interested in checking out is 'www.cductive.com'. They have a pretty nice selection of dance music, carefully categorized and available for purchase on a song by song basis. You pick the songs and they make the CD for you. They have RealAudio samples of everything they have available. The prices are $4.99 for the first song, and $1.00 a song after that, plus they have 8-10 'free' songs in each style that you don't even have to pay for. -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: Paul.French@psygnosis.co.uk Subject: Re: (orbital) Underworld Video Compilation.

The Event Horizon soundtrack was done by Orbital working with Michael Kamen. Kamen has done soundtracks on dozens of movies. The EH soundtrack is a bit strange, their are only 4 tranks on the CD, but they are all long, and contain the 'chapters' of the movie. There were only a few tracks that sound definatly like Orbital, and the sound is very dark, much like the movie, but all in all, it was a worthy purchase. > Also, I see lots of hype about Autechre and Rabbit in the Moon...but I know > nothing of them.

Rabbit in the Moon I have heard very little from, I only have a couple of remix tracks from them on compilation CD's, but what I have heard is pretty cool.

It's a little repedetive, but it's got a good "mood" and is just generally very cool. The rest of the album is awesome as well. One song even has some 303 in it (303 in a Jungle song?!).

For instance, how >many channels, inputs, effects, beat synchronizer, etc. ok, i have the gemini 1998 catalogue here (you can find all gemini stuff also on www.geminidj.com). let's see, i talked with a dj about the gemini PS-646 PRO mixer, and he liked what it featured: 10" (techno) stereo rack mixer 4 channels. 3 phono, 6 line and 2 mic inputs. true cut feature (-26dB) for bass, mid and high of each channel to create unusual special effects. recessed removable crossfader. beat sync indicators. dj mic Neutric combo 1/4" or xlr jack. gain controls for each channel. talkover. balanced and unbalanced master outputs. dj booth output. dual mode display. cue section. cue split. it looks like a small one, but the specs are quite nice... the 676 is pretty the same, only features only 3 channels, but a 12 second sampler... but you don't need a sampler on your mixer... you'll better of with 4 channels for 2 phono, a cd and a separate sampler. dedicated samplers perform better than built-in... i could type over the whole mixer catalogue, but that would be useless... just go to www.geminidj.com > I'm totally new at >this and am very hungry for info.

Timestretched samples seem to have taken over, especially in sp**d g*r*ge, but I've never heard the whole track stretched like that, only ever bits of a track.

Best thing I've heard this year. Autechre are pushing the boundaries more than anyone else at the moment, I reckon. The attention to detail in this album is incredible. We can only hope Orbital, Underworld and Leftfield match it, and then this'll be the greatest year ever.

It fits well with Neil McClellan's other stuff I've heard, so i always thought they were the remixers. 'They' in the title being Neil McLelland and Gareth Jones, and 'did it' meaning remixed it.

I heard a couple songs from his LP 'Colours'; and aside from 'Metropolis', which is good tune, the others sounded much too repetitve to me. I have a couple tracks by Adam F (on the artcore series) - 'F Jam' and 'Circles', and I heard all the same samples over again. I guess Photek can get away with it, but I don't think Adam F can :) Its probably just my taste, but anyway I recommend listening to this one first... > >>Torque - No U-Turn - Dark, scary, hard, you name it.

Oops, I lied. My mixer is a Numark, not a vestax. I like it a bunch, and it's pretty cheap. The Intimidator is made by Apex, and while it's effects would be useful to anyone, it's primarily I think meant to be for battle DJ's.

One very usual subject of discussion on this list is suggestions of orbital-like music.... Well, I have recommended Jarre to readers here before, since that guy's been at the origins of the techno movement since the start, as much as Kraftwerk or that sexchange Carlos guy/gal who did the Clockwork orange music, or Vangelis.... Well, lately a remix CD of his last album has come out, and for those of you who especially like danceable music (like Orbital has often been mostly before Snivilisation), well this may be a good first contact... The CD is "Odyssey through O2", and is very nice. If you want to hear more, "Oxygene" (1976) and "Oxygene 7-13" (1997) are extremely great music, I can't see anyone regret buying those, they are total masterpieces. Oh well.

Not perfect, but really really close :) I would say its on my top 10 album list. Lots of great tracks, all quite varied in style. That is probably what makes it good - their music sounds varied and fresh enough that it can't easily be pigeon-holed into some music category.

Yeah, i've got this, but no MD player (yeah, i'm a trainspotter). It's the first Minidisc *only* release ever. Leave it to Gescom. I've got a mono mp3 of it... a lot or randomness and noises. not for the light of heart. The Gescom I was speaking more fondly of are the 4 12"-only releases on their own Skam record label out of Manchester. Keynell being my personal favorite hightlight. Chances are you won't be able to find the first 3, but the 4th just came out a few weeks back. oh and their excellent remix of Push Button Objects. keep your peepers open. >I doubt anybody's expectations were higher than mine, and I'm well pleased >with it. I honestly can't see Orbital matching it (but I hope I'm wrong!). Why are you trying to compare Orbital and Autechre?? Like them both for whatever reasons... they're both intellectually stimulating, yet on totally different levels. Orbital on the whole is much more mass-friendly as opposed to autechre. Trying to match both of these artists to the same expectation is missing the point.

Well, yeah you're probably right; but it wasn't exactly my intention to compare them, I was just saying which I liked best this year :) They are completely different styles. I've heard about Bricolage, I have high expectations for it as well... read a review of it and it sounded very cool.

I wasn't really trying to claim there's anything similar between the two (except maybe bits of Sniv), you're absolutely right, the two appeal to different parts of my musical taste.

"adlibs" a slightly different version of "It's a fine day" (or whatever the right name is) on Halcyon? A friend of mine heard Halcyon for the first time not long ago and instantly said, "Hey!

I was impressed to say the least, but he made me think of something and now I think I'm hearing just that Opus 3 song over and over while hearing Halcyon. As in David Holmes : "Right or wrong?" On a side note in fact concerning David Holmes; a single that somebody mentioned some time ago bore the name of Johnny something, right? Anybody know where to get a hold of it? Is it a rarity or should it be possible to track down through mail-order? LASTLY, does David Holmes go by another name at times? I just got a cd called System Express by System 7 ++ other artists remixing their works. System Express contains some really good tracks by the way, remixes by people like Carl Cox, Derrick May, Laurent Garnier?, but anyway, my question. The cover says David Holmes has remixed one of the songs on the cd, but the inlet does not print his name other than in the credits, not for any of the tracks. Case is, too, that I wonder just who Adam Wren is. Anyway, enough murmuring...

The single is "Johnny Favourite." This 12" was his first solo release outside of the Disco Evengelists (with Ashley Beedle.) Highly recommended by the way, there is a great ambient mix on the flip side of the 12"/cd single. It's unfortunately out of print, and it didn't appear on his album "This Film's Crap.." but that album is definitely worth buying for some great tracks including the track "GOne" with Sarah Cracknell. >Anybody know where to get a hold of it?

I wouldn't say that they don't put out anything good. I mean, "Krupa" is a damn good song. Very upbeat and happy. The rest of the album is okay, it grows on you.

This will be the first set by Autechre in Toronto in over 2 years and heralds their new album, 'Album', which is out now in Europe on WARP but will be out in North America in a few months, when Autechre return to 'do' America. Canada, as usual, is ahead of the game. The last time Autechre played Toronto at Transcendance 'live' in March '96, their set was heralded as the dawning of a new era and an inspiration for many local new producers today. Ae are joined by the return of Richie Hawtin, ever a Toronto techno favourite, who is also on tour for his album 'Consumed', out now on Mute/M_nus. Rich will continue on his trend of embellishing his DJ sets with elaborate use of effects and the powerful 909. Ritual 4 will be held at a legal licensed concert venue TBA, but which is quite small. Tickets are expected to sell out in advance and we advise early arrival. Live acts begin at MIDNIGHT sharp. Please call 416.760.3281 for more info on location, etc. Tickets are $25 adv. and this event is also 19+ licensed LLBO before 2:45 am. Ritual 4 runs from 10pm-8 am. Tix are available at: Traxx, Play de Record, Speed, Record Peddler, Speed Kitchener, Mudshark Guelph, From Mars London, Record Time Detroit, Hidden Jungle Missisauga, Record Bar Oshawa & Play de Scarborough. -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: kwikyslush@juno.com (Brandon Invergo) Subject: (orbital) http://www.action-records.com Date: 25 Jul 1998 00:18:45 EDT speaking of this site, does anyone know about how long it takes them to deliver stuff stateside? i ordered some stuff a week ago, and am already impatient (but that's just cause im impatient like that, not that they are taking a while). actually, they already billed my account for the shipping, so i think they already sent it out. hmmm please reply no later than saturday, acuz im leaving for two weeks on sun. brandon _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Quite an amazing cd. I wanted to buy it, but they wanted $26.99 cdn. Although the cd is worth it, I think I can get it for less off of the internet. Odd packaging. I couldn't figure out what cd it was until I listened to it. I was looking for a copyright, but the sticker that had all of the cd info was covered up by the fucking price tag. They have so much space, and they cover up what you need to see everytime. Instead I bought the Basscadet EP which I've wanted for a while, and Air's Moon Safari. Not bad although Kelly, watch the stars is the highlight, and really the only trak that stands out besides Sexy Boy.

The 3CD set was the limited edition version, and I thought they'd all gone immediately, so I didn't mind only getting the 2CD version. The 2 CDs are full-length, but I think the third only has five or so tracks on it, including a remix of Plastikman's wonderful 'Spastik' that I would love to get my hands on. Actually what I'd really like is the even-more-limited edition in the battery powered lightbox thing, but that cost =A3160 when new= , so God knows what it'll cost now!=20 > Just curious how it is.. Well worth paying a 'normal' price for, and I'd say definitely get it if it's cheap.=20 The style of the music is quite varied (though all techno, loosely speaking), from really hard tuff like Basic Channel to really smooth jazzy stuff like Carl Craig's 'At Les'. And Aphex's 'Polynomial G' is on there. And mu-ziq's 'Phi*1700[u/v]', and Biosphere, and CJ Bolland, and loads more that I can't be bothered to list.=20 Get it. cheers, Jon - Jon Green zcapn33@ucl.ac.uk "Raise your hands if you think you understand.

During the visit i made a brief visit to the studio just to drop a few things off for Paul. Micky Mann (Pressure of Speech) was there helping out on a mix of the last but ONE track from the new album - top friendly bloke. Paul made a few comments about Diggers shirts btw (are u ready for this Digger!) - loved the idea - thought it would be hilarious if his Dad would wear a T-Shirt with "new age travellers..." on it. :) Thursday night i went to the Isslington small farty Richard H Kirk (Cabaret Voiltaire) gig at the Garage with Paul H, his GF and Jones. Small hot room full of journos and Record Company representives... Support Act was just a wall of noise - very annoying - but yaknow he just wanted to hear people shout "F?$? Off" to him. Richard H Kirk himself - played a mixture of styles - generally upbeat - nice mixture of breakbeats as well. The whole night was over quite quick - only to see Cylob (Afx type artist) grab the mike of the mixing desk and shout various abuse to the crowd. Before anyone could react Paul had disarmed him of the mike and lowered the volume. Hey...who says he can only compose music. Paul the bouncer!

I dont think that is the problem with Underworld and i know for a fact that it isnt the problem with Orbital. Orbital are a least one month from completion - but the Record Company will most likely waver the idea of releasing the album this side of Xmas. The RC view is avoid releasing "this" type of music in the later half of the year before Xmas - it would sell better in January. I know this is obsurd, but the Record Company call the final shots on most artists/groups and money is the end result in their eyes. Still no release date for Orbital album....but if you read the above - u may guess where it most likely will end up coming out....sad !

The Bass Cadet ep is definitely cool, and I think Moon Safari is one of the best albums of the year so far. It took a few listens to really get into, but when you start realizing the care and thought put into every sound on the album, you start to realize how impressive it is..

Yeah, the 187 is called 'Quality Rolls' and won't be out till next month sometime. And This is Jungle Sky might be a good compilation, but I personally would not rate it quite that high. I also left out one of my very favorites (musta been smokin' rock that day...). Renegade Continuum. It's 2 mixed CD's (or 4 unmixed records) and worth whatever you hafta pay for it. :) Both discs are mixed by DJ Dara, and other than the first 2 logical progression CD's, it's probably the best mixed jungle cd around. He uses all the tricks, slowdowns, wicked beat cuts, and the songs are top notch. One disc is dark and hard, one is a little (only a little) less dark and very jazzy. -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: "[halcyon]" <queue@imt.net> Subject: (orbital) 303 Date: 27 Jul 1998 17:01:20 -0600 what exactly is a 303? all those techno buffs should know. ive heard it, and references to it, but have no idea what it is. thank you kindly. # 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: Danny Colquhoun <djcolquh@uwaterloo.ca> Subject: (orbital) WTF??!!!

For this, it sells for a ridiculously high price. What?? You don't listen to much Goa trance do you? Yes, the TB-303 is a small keyboard with a bunch of knobs that was ORIGINALLY deigned to create basslines for regular rock bands. It proved to be pretty bad at doing this. However, some people discovered that if you pushed the 303 to it's limits it made wierd screeching noises. Unfortunately before they became popular in the techno scene Roland discontinued them. I guess there have been many attempts to duplicate it's sound over the years, with no success. Roland refuses to make them again though. They say that their MC-303 "groovebox" is an acceptable substitute, but it isn't even close. (I've heard it) All the Roland substitutes just use samples of the 303 to recreate the sound, and they don't have the versatility and range of the original. Now they sell for big money (around $1200 US I think?) because they are so rare and SO in demand. You can't really make great goa trance without one. The latest attempt at emulation is called Rebirth (a software program) that does a very good job of emulating the original 303. It's VERY close, probably a good enough substitute for those willing to use it. It's certainly a lot better than Roland's crappy MC-303 emulation. The original poster (mailer?) can search for "TB-303" on the web and they'll find tons of stuff (including samples I'm sure.

Rebirth sounds great, as we've said a thousand times before. Has anyone tried out version 2 yet? It's due out about now, but a friend of mine said he had a cracked mac version already. The main difference is that you get a 909 as well as an 808 (I think). The sound is very close to the original but will never be reproduced completely as there were some random elements in the circuitry that made the original do some mad shit (apparently). ez # 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 Kloehr <ckloehr@TAASCFORCE.com> Subject: RE: (orbital) 303/rebirth Date: 28 Jul 1998 07:40:52 -0500 Could someone please give me some input on what would be a good software program for somone who is just getting into making music?

SH-101 : If I remember correctly, the SH-101 is sort of a combination of a 303 and an 808, soundwise. MC-202 : I'm not sure about this one TB-303 : We've covered this one. TR-505 : Also not sure about this one TR-606 : A Beatbox, more or less. Looks a lot like a 303, run on batteries, not midi-equipped. more or less a toy. TR-707 : A more equipped drum machine, better than a 606, but not as good as an 808 or a 909.. TR-727 : I dunno.. TR-808 : My favorite of the bunch. Think about the intro to Out There Somewhere, the bass sound that sounds like a puff of air. This is one of the more widely used ones, orbital uses it heavily.

Hey Mehul! Long time, no post :) Anyway, to confirm all these "unconfirmed beliefs" I want to nail it to the ground that Sad But True was the song in Johnny Mneumonic and that it was played early, in the bar where you first see the female star actor (nice, but no good ;) ) where she confronts that dealer? who has two side-kicks (two other women) and she is laughed of as being instabile, etc. The music in the background, and rightly suggest more than once by posters, is Sad But True and a woman sings something else above that track. The track I believe is available on the Johnny Mneumonic soundtrack, I'm not sure it's that much different from the Snivil version. Can't remember that, so it's up to someone else to confirm. :) Anyway, you people made me realise how utterly shite that movie is and now I'll probably see it for the THIRD time again this weekend.. haha.. talk about waste of time ;) Trym ______________________________________________________ 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: "Ryan Taylor" <rtaylor@bsumail.idbsu.edu> Subject: Re: (orbital) orbital 303s Date: 29 Jul 1998 18:25:29 -0600 > From: FishyT99@aol.com > To: orbital@xmission.com > Subject: Re: (orbital) orbital 303s > Date: Tuesday, July 28, 1998 10:30 PM > oh lord, there was this crazy old rave tune by someone whose name i can't > remember called "insomniac", it had the most blatant use of a 303 i've ever > heard.....it was great. another wonderful part about that tune was there was > a sample of a guy saying "insomniac...don't come back" or something to that > effect, and when you played it backwards, it said the same thing....

I > could be wrong, haven't seen one in a few months... The SH101 was a small, portable monophonic synth. It came with a carrying strap so you could wear it round your neck like a guitar, and it had a 'fretboard' handle which you could use as a modulator. It was flashy for about 6 months in the early 80s but sounded pretty ropey compared to what came later. My vote for the greatest 303 record of all time also goes to Hardfloor's 'Acperience'. The follow up 'Trancescript' was even more extreme, and I count at least 5 separate 303 patterns playing simultaneously towards the end. Hardfloor were rumored to have about a dozen 303s in their arsenal. Either they used them all live or they hadn't worked out how to multitrack them in the studio! (I once saw Bill Nelson play live with about 10 Casio VLTones - the first micro-mini keyboard ever to go on sale - all playing simultaneously. Hypnotic, but somehow crap at the same time...) Hardfloor named their first LP 'TB Resuscitation', which set their agenda to bring back the squelchy sound of the TB303. One track was called 'Lost In The Silver Box' - also a reference to the wee silver thing that changed music forever... Bye for now Andy Jackson "You can't have everything. Where would you put it?"

Isn't it funny how many elderly people think the Internet is the source of every wierdness on earth? Yesterday afternoon, I donned my Orbital shirt (courtesy of Digger) and went to the local post office to mail a package for a friend. The postman who often works there seems to be eternally jolly... like the Santa Claus of postal workers. I put forth the package. "Oooo, " SaintpostofficeNick said with a smile. "I'll just take that there sir, thank y'very much. That'll be seventy-eight cents there... Woah.... What are the 'new age travelers'? Is that on the Internet?" ;) funny. -Aaron t h e s p e c t r e w e b http://www.bigfoot.com/~amspectre/ # 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: "Whiggy" <whiggy@chibi.lionsgate.com> Subject: (orbital) I was bounced Date: 31 Jul 1998 14:08:36 -0700 For mysterious reasons, I stopped getting mail on monday.

(Which gets my vote for best 303 emulator :) I suppose now they can have practically an infinite array of them. > Hardfloor named their first LP 'TB Resuscitation', which set their > agenda to bring back the squelchy sound of the TB303.

It's just the plain version of Sad But True in the bar with the soprano woman singing. ALSO!! There is a nifty thing I noticed in the film. When Johnny's in the computer shop in Newark and just found out about the Newark copy shop and decides to enter the BBS, the film shows some of its fancy, yet utterly STUPID Internet/cyberspace graphics BUT through one of the tunnels you pass, a neon sign is lit with the word ORBITALE. Passes dreadfully quickly, but worth seeing the film a third time to notice that now.. ;) Trym ______________________________________________________ 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
