different mixes of Attached and Semi Detached to those on Sniv and
Diversions. Not a lot different really, and not particularly better or
worse. I do like the sample that links the two though. And if you've ever
been annoyed by the fact that Lush and Walk About have no index point in
the middle, then you'll be pleased to hear they do on Peel.

Subject: Tr: (orbital) Upped Prices

Yes they are special remixes of the tracks.

Especially Attached and Semi-Detached, respectively found on Diversions and
Snivilisation, two great tracks.... They are cool on Div. and Sniv., but on
the earlier Peel session you get to see how they were really meant to be
mixed together. One thing that surprised me was that Semi-Detached was meant
to go before Attached in a mix, I always figured it was the opposite. On the
Peel session also, you get to have sounds from S-D mixed into Attached at
some points, and they really rock. I think that if they were to make a
"Attached - Final Mix" that would sound the way the Sniv version sounds,
only with the added elements found on the Peel version (eg the S-D sounds +
the vocal samples), it would absolutely rock!!

Anyway I think it's a very interesting disc to get, if it's decently priced
though. I'm sorry but at 42$can I wouldnt buy any underworld or orbital ep
(well I did buy the three satan live at 14$ a piece), I'd go for the mp3,
coz even if I'm stealing a bit from the artist, you just *have* to protest
against the pathetic middlemen who inflated the price that much and rip
*them* off for once.

20+$ is hardly a reasonable price for an album when you know that the
artists probably only get like 5 or 10% of that price. But I will pay it for
good artists like Orbital and Underworld anyway. Hell, I would *gladly* pay
20$ if I knew that all or most of it went to P&P.

What if you could buy cd's off the net in mp3, pay like 10$, 5$ goes to the
artist, 5$ goes to the distributing company who could be much smaller than
today's disc industry giants.... Piracy wouldnt be any worst than it is
right now, and that web-based company could take care of rooting out the bad
pirates...

Oh anyway this has turned into a rant, I'll stop it right here :)

you won't believe this, but i have this album for like three weeks now.
all i ever heard was bomb the bass remixes (5-6 times each) and the
depeche mode remix. wonder why ? because that depeche mode
remix absolutely RULES. each and every day i have it on repeat for a
couple of hours, and still can't get enough of it. When I'm going to work
or to classes, I usually find myself repeating 'echoing in my mind' out
loud...  and the tune keeps looping inside my head even when i go
out to a club.

And the best thing is, I never gave any notice to Depeche Mode.

just my $.02,

Daniel

Suggestion: Listen to Dwr Budr off a CD (InSides) with bass and volume while

Subject: (orbital) FUSE and more o.t.

Maybe one of these days I'll write a letter that's on-topic. Maybe...

I've been listening to FUSE's album these past days and it is excellent
stuff, like everything else in the ai series. Thanks for everyone's
advice, I'm becoming a Warp-head now. Am I crazy, or are the "what's
wrong?" samples on "theychx" (track 8) the same ones in "out there
somewhere?" And in this same vein, can anyone reccomend any other good
Detroit-style stuff on 8+? Who's good as first listens in late 80s-90s
Detroit techno?

Aside from FUSE a few more questions... can Fluke fans in the UK say if
Six Wheels on My Wagon is better than OTO? And how is Underworld's
second album compared to their first (which I adore)? And what is Sven
Vath's first album like... I heard it's very good trance-type stuff.

Last but not least, which artists would be best for getting into jungle
dnb? I've heard some wicked stuff on Princeton radio Sun. nights, but
I'm clueless about what to get first. Reply privately if you don't want
to clog up the list with non-Orbital...
                        KEL
PS: Did anyone hear from Steve how far back the single and album
releases have been pushed?

"can people dance to that?"
now playing: FUSE "Dimension Intrusion"

I'm throwing a "not-for-profit, just-for-fun" party in detroit of roughly
200-250 people and am looking for DJs who wouldn't mind spinning

anyone who things they could go for an hour and wouldn't mind

starts on Friday, May 21st at 8:00 p.m.  Thanks for everything.

I liked it better than dubno at first, but I think they're about equal now.

'Torque' the No U-Turn records compilation. The two 'Breakbeat Science'
compilations are good, and pretty varied, so they're a good start 'cos you
get to hear the whole spectrum, so you can decide whether tyou like the
dark stuff, the gentle stuff or whatever, and get the names of some artists
to check out further.

Yep, the very same onees.  They are taken from the movie THX-1000 I believe.
This was George Lucas' college film but came out on vhs I think.  I saw it at

Heard last night on university student radio.... A song that sounded very

repeating "We are the robots" or something like that...... I know this is
