Subject: (orbital) ?So what happened!?!?!

So would any of the Cream attendees like to tell us how it was and what
went down at Midnight?

SteveP? PhilG? hello?

Hey Aimee!!! Thanks for the snowman card! it's a riot!

Happy Y2K everybuddy!

OH! I visited that Halcyon shop in Brooklyn a few days ago and let them
know that the Orbital mailing list was watching! ;)

They guy was all excited and said they played "halcyon + on + on" for
their Grand Opening!
{It seems they have good taste!}

Nice place to chill if your uptight and in Brooklyn ;)

Best wishes to all.
Thanx for the great 99 trades etc.
What a generous lot y'all be!

Cheeeeers from Tennesee!
Shannon + on + on!

Well, *my* Y2K celebration event was dancing around to Halcyon
(long version) coming out of 5x3 meter stacks of PA on "The Party" in
Denmark (check www.theparty.dk to find out what this is! 8)
I was totally freaking out and wore a smile bigger than Mount
Rushmore! 8)  It was pure bliss! 8) I just fucken loved it and will
repeat that ASAP and if it means buying stacks like that myself! >:-D
Thanks to Thomas, a friend of mine who is organizer of that event and
managed to play it! 8)))

If i could only tell you how i felt! 8)... It was some sort of
substitute for not being able to be at Cream!.. <:-)

You're right, of course. But the trouble with doing everything "virtually"
is that eventually it gets really tedious doing everything inside the
computer. You don't need "real" instruments or a mixing desk or anything,
but it's a lot more fun! You can spend hours coming up with weird analogue
effects and twiddling knobs on "physical" machines; on the computer
everything so sodding pristine... it can get really boring.
   Just thought I'd tell you.

    Hello!

    They came on did some music, the clock struck 12, everybody cheered, then they
    played some more music and left.

    Pretty dull really.

Subject: (orbital) Looking for a Font

Hello

Sorry this is in no way Orbital related.  I am looking for the font used on
the cover of the Orgy "Candyass" CD.  This font looks a bit like Arcade, but
the "d" and the "y" have a distinct look.  I have seen this font used on many
Orgy websites, I just don't know the name of it.

If you can help me out with the name, or the font itself, please e-mail me
privately.

Thanx

Subject: Re: (orbital) Programs & homemade music

Steve, and all -

Of course, you're correct also :-)
and to relate that point, probably my favorite
acquisition within the last 6 months was getting
a Korg Electribe EA-1..  twiddling knobs and filtering
et al can be quite the liberating experience, in addition
to sequencing live (i do have outboard gear, esp my old
Korg M1, which is my master controller and yes I do
play keys..)

I just wanted to reassure others who didnt want to
have a bunch of outboard stuff that its cool too...

Jim

Hey,

One of my friends heard somewhere that Boards of Canada is about to go on a
tour.  Is this true?  I don't think so, but I just want to be sure.  I would
hate to miss it if they were.
thanx

Subject: (orbital) Gescom

Hey,

Is there anyone out there that is willing to trade some Gescom mp3's for
other mp3's.  I have been frantically looking for any Gescom releases and
can't find any (I know that they are out there).  If anyone is willing, I
would be very very very very appreciative.  Come on, do a fellow Orbitalite
(I guess that's what you would call us) a huge favour.
thanx to anyone who responds

peace
morpheus

Man, I don't know if you mean the US and UK, but OH MY would I love to see
those guys play. I mean, I've heard that they seldomly perform, but I've
heard that when they do they enthrall everyone. Let's get some more info on
this! :-)

There's no news about a tour on the official BoC webpage
(http://www.ednet.co.uk/~ehx/boc/), but it does mention that the new album
should be out this year.

I think I mentioned this one already, but it really is an amazing album--If
you're looking for something in the beautiful, mellow style of BoC, check
out Solvent's Solvently One Listens, on Suction records.  If I had to
describe it, I'd say it's purple.  Not the Neue Black purple, but a richer
violet hue.
