A conversion shouldn't coust too much, but It all depends on the length of the material. If you can't find either of these, then you should take it to a Video Post Production Facility. But that might cost you a bit more. But usually you can find it, places like the video duplication shop are quite common. Peeople always want to get copies or Conversions of thier Wedding Video's or Thier Kid's first steps or other such precious moments.

There is no "whole CD" of this material unfortunately, at least not a released one. Another version of "Borrowed Love" (the name I use in the KLF & Orb discogs for the "Alex vs. The KLF" track, just to keep everything straight) is on the Eternity: Project One album, and there's another stray KLF/Orbish track called "Brooklyn, New York" that dates to roughly the same period, but that's about it. On the other hand, you might want to just track down "Project One". There's some cool stuff on there. -- Lazlo Nibble - lazlo@studio-nibble.com - http://www.studio-nibble.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Everybody's doing weblogs and I conform! http://www.studio-nibble.com/weblog -- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Chain Reaction Subject: (orb) Sun Electric vinyl spotted Date: 03 Feb 2000 03:34:06 -0500 (EST) Dear music friends, Ellesdesia (www.ellesdesia.com or .nl) has some SE vinyl to offer: ---------- ARTIST and TITLE: Sun Electric ; Kitchen LABEL, CODE and YEAR: R&S ; RS 933 LP ; 1993 ELLESDESIA'S COMMENTS: Techno , 12 Tracks prod by Tom Thiel & Max Loderbauer CONDITION and FORMAT: Mint ; 2x12 inch PRICE: 17.76 USD ; 39.90 Dutch guilders ---------- ARTIST and TITLE: Sun Electric ; Present LABEL, CODE and YEAR: R&S ; AMB 6943 ; 1996 ELLESDESIA'S COMMENTS: 14 Track Ambient Techno Album CONDITION and FORMAT: Mint ; 2x12 inch PRICE: 16.87 USD ; 37.90 Dutch guilders ---------- Greets, Steph... ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com?sr=mc.mk.mcm.tag001 # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Howat, Simon" Subject: (orb) Coldcut Date: 03 Feb 2000 10:08:42 -0000 >Is there a whole album of this?

If someone out there has the whole cd would you burn me >a copy for trade? I wonder whether you are talking about the 'Coldut Vs The Orb' session, an extract of which was on a rare track cd I bought once. If so, the session was broadcast on Kiss FM in London on New Years Eve sometime in the early nineties. I recorded it from the radio on the night and have listened to it pretty consistently over the years since. From what I can tell, The Orb played about three records, then Coldcut played about three records and this went on for a couple of hours. Coldcut played the likes of Major Force, Tackhead, Depth Charge and a bit of house. The Orb played a selection of fantastic house and techno tunes that were available at the time. As you can imagine, the Orbs sections are fairly distinctive since there is a cacophony of nonsense samples over the top, almost to the point of distraction - operatics, children's program sounds and the usual high jinx. Perfect! From time to time there would be a Kiss FM announcement saying that this broadcast was coming 'live and direct form the Holloway Road' - in North London. I think that this was also when Kiss FM was a pirate station which makes the whole damn thing even more exciting. I have tried getting a full CD of it with no real success, apart from a guy (from the Netherlands?) who may be prepared to trade - go to http:\\www.orbology.com to get details. Sorry if I am wrong and have sent everybody info that they weren't interested in or already knew. But this session is an absolute must for anyone into the Orb circa early nineties. It may not be their music necessarily, but it is unmistakenly their sound. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "mark lewis" Subject: (orb) re orb/space Date: 03 Feb 2000 10:34:41 GMT -[re space cdr requested]this is also one of my wants, cdr or minidisc from cd please. -mark ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?eric_=B3?= Subject: Re: (orb) FFWD Date: 03 Feb 2000 09:16:51 -0500 > can anyone tell me where I can find the cover graphics from the FFWD > album?

Correct. I used to have this on cassette but it got eaten by my Walkman many moons ago.

The sample in question is from a comedy album from the 70's called "A child's garden of grass". Its a series of comedy skits that revolve around the wacky weed. As the Orb have already discovered, it is absolutely jam-packed with some awesome samples to drop into a mix. They have also used pieces of this album in their mix of the Reefer Song and in their Tangerine Dream remix. I came across this treasure quite some time ago, (in a thrift store!) but after I had tracked down the Reefer song remix and the Tangerine Dream remix...I just about fell out of my chair when I listened to it and realized I had found the source of those samples. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Robert Jan Bijleveld" Subject: (orb) real audio /orb vs coldcut Date: 03 Feb 2000 22:06:14 +0100 I replaced the real audio/video files for zipped RA/V files. Just tested it and it works. Download to your HD and play using Realplayer. Since I'm planning to to regular (I'll try to do it twice a month or so). Every update I will include a total concert or other stuff. If I get the time I'll do some video stuff too. Orb on MTV Party Zone for example. Anyway, since there is a lot of talking about the orb vs coldcut thing @ Kiss FM, I decided that that will be the first update. Planning to do the RA conversions somewhere during the weekend. Uploads will be done somewhere next week, and announced through the list. Till then you have the time to download the LA Park Plaza 1993 concert. Suggestions of future updates are welcome. I also wonder what the most used modem type is, but since I don't have time (and enthousiasm) to do a poll, I'll just optimize the RA files for 56k.

Instead, they played a set at lollapalooza in George, Washington, which is about 5-7 hours south of Seattle! Perhaps not too far for Seattle fans, but when you add 3.5 hours from Vancouver to Seattle, 10 hours is just TOO FAR!!! And Vancouverites have fared pretty well, as far as Canada goes..

Please help me find out ... As far as I know, the Blue Room is the Area 51 hangar in a US military airbase in Roswell/New Mexico. Allegedly, aliens crashed somewhere near it and were recovered and examined by US military people. To avoid public uproar, the aliens are said to have been kept secret within the Blue Room (how much of a secret is this, then?). There were photographs around showing *the* prototype aliens with thin limbs, big heads and huge black eyes. Funnily, on the photographs one of the aliens was wearing a watch that was developed about a decade or so after the crash allegedly happened. Some people maintain that the photos are not showing actual aliens but some old woman with a disease that heavily distorts outer appearance (much like Mr. Burns in the "Springfield Files" episode of The Simpsons).

See that's the greatest thing about metaphor. You can read it into anything you want. Every person's take on something as complex as an orb song is unique. I doubt seriously that most things people read huge amounts into really meant the same thing (or anything at all, for that matter) to the original artist. As an artist, one of your moments of true happyness is when somebody, on their own, comes to exactly the same conclusions about a piece that you yourself have.

So does the Blue Room itself. "It's a room in Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio where they keep all the aliens and the UFOs they've captured. It's like Hangar 18. It's a high-security installation that nobody is permitted to enter. They even refused to let President Eisenhower in." -------- excerpt from Who's in Sphere? page 8 New Musical Express 27 June 1992 -Well then, now's the time to find out what secrets the 'Blue Room' hides. At Wright Patterson(!!) Airforce Base in Ohio, America, certain presidents have been refused entry to a building that supposedly houses certain aliens, UFOs and artefacts that have been captured from the skies. Now that sounds like a good place for an Orb gig. "We've got this idea that it's rather tranquil," suggests Alex, "a Neptune-blue room with all these aliens just vegetating in there, it's just something that fascinates me. It was originally called the 'Blue Book Project', then they changed it to 'Operation Majestic', it's been there since World War Two, when they were losing all these aeroplanes and they couldn't work it out." i find it strange that area 51 and the blue room both exist is there really that much spacejunk collecting on earth? chicken now playing: u.f.orb of course # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Vince Frank" Subject: Re: (orb) blue room Date: 08 Feb 2000 18:11:51 -0500 > "We've got this idea that it's rather tranquil," suggests Alex, "a > Neptune-blue room with all these aliens just vegetating in there, it's just > something that fascinates me.

Experimental aircraft--that's the simple and logical explanation. > i find it strange that area 51 and the blue room both exist > is there really that much spacejunk collecting on earth? ===>Well, either they do or they don't.

This takes many steps. Here is a list of equipment you will need to complete this project: Turntable (one) Computer with sufficient HD space. ~10M/min.(one) Soundcard with stereo inputs (one) Vinyl records (as many as desired) Pre-Amp* (one) <--this makes the turntable output able to be used by the computer Dual RCA to Stereo 1/8" mini cable other cables as needed... * instead of a pre-amp, you may find that a DJ mixing board, or a home stereo-Hi-Fi will work instead. After we have collected all of the materials, we are ready to begin. 01. Hook up your turntable to the pre-amp*. (don't forget the ground wire) 02. Hook the pre-amp* up to the computer using the dual-RCA to stereo mini cable. (again grounding to the computer case might be a good idea) 03. Plug all equipment into electrical outlets. 04. Place desired vinyl record onto turntable, aligning the spindle with the hole. 05. Place needle in groove. 06. Start turntable (steps 5&6 are reversible) 07. Check for audio on the computer. 07a. if everything works, continue, if no sound is heard, then recheck all wires. (on a MAC you will record as an aiff) (on a windows computer record as a wav) 08. Open a sound recorder/editor** 09. Stop and recue the record. 10. Check settings on sound recorder***. 11. Open a new file. 12. Start recording. 13. Start turntable. 14. At end of song, stop recording and turntable. 15. Save file. 16. If more songs need to be recorded, repeat steps 11-15. Now we must convert our audio files into MP3 format there are many good software programs to do this. find one. use it. check settings*** ** software Sound recorder (WIN) Cool Edit (WIN) (better) for mac, check tucows.com, or download.com *** settings for wav or aiff files use stereo 44.1 kHz 16 bit for mp3 use 128 or 160 (ot higher)kBit/sec stereo. hope this helps -- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Richard Mills" Subject: (orb) #@$!*&$%@!! Date: 13 Feb 2000 01:59:32 +1300 I'm not happy. Yesterday i sat down to read the local (Wellington, NZ) paper. When I got to page 6 i saw an article titled "Out of Orb-it". 'Oooh' i thought, 'This must be about the Orb's upcoming Wellington gig', still finding it hard to believe our favourite music magicians were coming to my town, and i was going to be there. I eagerly started to read the first paragraph, dreaming of how great the concert was going to be... "The New Zealand Festival 2000 is seeking legal advice following the withdrawal of dance music duo the Orb from this year's event." I was too busy picking holes in the opening sentence to realise what i had just read. When i re-read it, the air temperature in the room seemed to rise dramatically and i got that sickly feeling in the pit of my stomach. The article continued: "Festival Deputy Executive Director Alex Reedijk says the local promoter contracted to bring the pioneering electronica act to Wellington didn't have the authority to commit the Orb. Reedijk says the festival is extremely unhappy, having accepted on good faith that the promoter had booked the act." Extremely unhappy? You could say that's how i was feeling. But i would use slightly stronger words. So now there'll be no Orb, no mind-blowing gig. Just a letter in the mail telling me i'll get a full refund on my ticket. I don't want a refund. I want the Orb. I'm not happy. -R np: Elvis Presley - So Close Yet So Far ------- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Benoit Mauffette" Subject: (orb) thanks... re: Vynil-Mp3 Date: 12 Feb 2000 17:23:57 GMT Wow... thanks for all the info :) . . _|_ . . . ,, . | . , , . .. _|_ . , . . . . . ,. ., . . .| . , ,. .,. .,., ,., ,.,. . , .,, _. .. ,. .,: ;: :; ; ;:; ;:;:,. . <> _//_ . , , . ., ;/----\/ __\ /--\/-\/---\_/--// _\ ; , _|_ . . .,:;/ <> < __ _/ /\ - /;:,. . . | _|_ , ., ;/ <> __ \/ / <> / // /:,. . | ,: \______/\___/\___>__/ \___/__/\__\;:,. . . , . ., ;:; ;:; ;: : :; ;:; :,.:.: ; :; :.; , , , .`` ,.``. `.` `.```.``.`,.`` . . ... . . . , , . , . . , . , .. ._|_ . , . , . . | ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: seofon@slip.net (Seofon) Subject: (orb) Re: orb-digest V2 #293 Date: 12 Feb 2000 17:03:23 -0800 >> "We've got this idea that it's rather tranquil," suggests Alex, "a >> Neptune-blue room with all these aliens just vegetating in there, it's just >> something that fascinates me.

Agreed ... for the most part. There are two separate deals going on that get conflated into one thing called "UFO's": One is experimental technology, primarily disc-shaped aircraft with amazing capabilities, which indeed didn't become a major nuisance till the late 40's. However, there is also actual paranormal UFO-style phenomena, which have existed as long as anyone can remember ... Book of Ezekiel, faery activity, religious raptures, etc. Sighting of disc-shaped airborne vessels go back at least as far as ancient China, and there's the most recent Midwest Airship of 1897. Regardless, the so-called "Extraterrestrial Hypothesis" is indeed untenable. >> i find it strange that area 51 and the blue room both exist >> is there really that much spacejunk collecting on earth? > >===>Well, either they do or they don't.

Need I say that I'm a >skeptic? ;-) I disagree ... they do /and/ they don't. =) I have no doubt that there are strange looking aircraft in hangars at Area 51, but whether they have anything to do with extraterrestrials is another question entirely. By the way, I think that LX's idea that the aliens are "vegetating" is erroneous ... The story I heard is that most of the EBE's allegedly recovered expired very soon after their crash (though one named Krll was supposed to have survived for some time and even written a book). Point being that the occupants of any Blue Room were probably dead. I guess the point I'd like to make is: the fact that most public data on UFO's is disinformation doesn't imply that there isn't a very real phenomenon going on right under the noses of investigators and debunkers alike. Indeed, I, myself, believe in the presence of both experimental aircraft /and/ extraterrestrials, so it gets pretty confusing. =) I can't recommend Jacques Vallee's book /Dimensions/ trilogy highly enough, for disentangling all this high strangeness. -=Seofon Ambient Temple of Imagination > http://www.a-toi.com > http://www.mp3.com/atoi double-disc anthology Y2KAOS now available! > http://www.a-toi.com/y2kaos # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Lazlo Nibble Subject: (orb) ORBULLETIN: Premature De-Orbulation Date: 12 Feb 2000 21:05:36 -0700 # This is an Orb announcement from the ORBULLETINS mailing list.

By now most of you affected know that the Orb are not playing the New Zealand 2000 festival in early March, despite vigorous promotion to the contrary over the past couple of months. According to a local newspaper article quoted on the Orb list by Richard Mills: "Festival Deputy Executive Director Alex Reedijk says the local promoter contracted to bring the pioneering electronica act to Wellington didn't have the authority to commit the Orb. Reedijk says the festival is extremely unhappy, having accepted on good faith that the promoter had booked the act." This would certainly explain why our "usual sources" never confirmed that the band were going to play the show. Looks like everyone involved got screwed on the deal, from fans who bought concert and airplane tickets to the festival itself which sunk quite a bit into promotion of the show if that web site they put up was any indication...here's hoping the promoter in question gets his arse kicked but good. -- Lazlo Nibble - lazlo@studio-nibble.com - http://www.studio-nibble.com -- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: DJ Orbette Subject: (orb) Axiom Dub/ New Material? Date: 12 Feb 2000 21:18:15 -0700 Okay so here is the deal, I would really appreciate anyone who has the Axiom Dub collection to please mp3 "Black Falcon Dub" for me? I don't want to say I NEED it, but any DJ's out there will understand me when I say I will not be able to get out of this mix without it. I know I know, I need to learn that my cd's don't make good temporary bong coasters. But hey, Cocksville USA is in primo condition. And has anyone heard that new Material release? I am not sure how "new" it is. I just read about on a Laswell worship page and wanted to know if anyone had heard it. Okay guess that is it. If anyone has that mp3 you can up to freedrive.com user: upsetter pass: micro and for your trouble there are about 8 cracked Rebirth mods for anyone who can help. Hell you all may as well take them anyway now that you know about them, eh? But seriously someone help a fellow DJ out with that Black Falcon MP3, please. Thanks in advance.

I mean, I've seen almost everyone I've wanted to (except Squarepusher), but it has taken over 6 years. The only repeat visits have been from Ninja Tunes folks and Luke Vibert. Last night I had to make the 6 hr. round trip to Seattle to see u-ziq and Luke Vibert and BJ Cole. Well worth the drive, but it would have been nicer to save the $100 (damn exchange rates- but that was way cheap compared to staying overnight) and get to bed at 5 am (3 hrs. driving is no fun when you're very sleepy). They were supposed to cross the border in their luxury mobiles or fly or whatever, but they canceled the show. We're nice up here, I swear! I know Toronto is cooler with EC and everything, but it's staring to really bug me. And it's not just electronic stuff, when I was in Seattle last night and flipping through one of the local magazines, the concert announcements were pretty crazy compared to here. Dammit, I've moving to England. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Gavin Miller Subject: Re: (orb) Davy Jones Locker (Orb mix) Date: 13 Feb 2000 14:05:26 -0800 (PST) hello out there. --- gerneth wrote: > There's an Orb track out there somewhere that > features an accordion "solo" > by someone named Mick (or Mickey) Kahn; a very > "jolly Jack Tar" kind of > thing.

I think the track you're looking for is Paradise X's "2 much" remix by the orb - Start and Depart to Paradise. At the end it has an accordian part, but I have no idea if it's the one you're looking for. Gavin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

New Zealand Festival 2000 To all you Orbsters in New Zealand who are disapointed that The orb will not be appearing at The New Zealand Festival 2000 The management and band would like to clarify the situation (haven't seen any NZ press/announcement but from what a digester wrote it seems they have made the relevant announcement) without going into the nitty gritty of it but basically a promoter in New Zealand confirmed The Orb to play at the festival without confirmation being first obtained from The Orb's booking agent in the UK. It all came to a head in January 2000 when we were made aware that The Orb were billed to play (even though we had previosly declined the offer) and their name etc was appearing on ad's, web pages etc whence we immediately contacted the promoter in New Zealand and he inturn contacted the organisers of the New Zealand Festival to explain his self and actions. Apologies for all the Orbsters that had bought tickets for the Festival to see The Orb but we as you can see from the above we had previously declined the offer so to find out we were billed was as much as a shock to us as it was for you guys to find out we were not playing.

Yeah, here's the current discog entry: 12": 199? UK (Copymasters; n/a) [2-sided; hand-labeled; no matrix #s] 11:48 Assassin (live orbient 6 september 1993) 12:07 Numb (def + numb mix 2) [Confirmed. At this point I believe it is most likely a dub plate LX had made for DJ use.] I corresponded a little at the time with the the guy who bought it, but I don't think I got much more out of him than he was saying in public. He really laid out the dosh and was pissed because it was sold as having *two* Numb mixes on it, but one turned out to just be a common version of "Assassin". The only reason I can think of why such a disc would exist is as a one-off Alex made to spin (maybe Smiley could ask about that at some point?). Dunno know where the platter finally ended up, with the seller or the buyer, but either one could probably have made the big bucks selling it to a bootlegger. Joel, I take it you've been working this from the U2 end...I would view that as a more likely place for it to surface than from the Orb end since it's a U2 remix.

The group popularized the genre as well, by appearing on the British chart show Top of the Pops and hitting number one in the U.K. with the 1992 album U.F.Orb. Frontman Dr. Alex Paterson's formula was quite simple: he slowed down the rhythms of classic Chicago house and added synthwork and effects inspired by '70s ambient pioneers Brian Eno and Tangerine Dream. To make the whole a bit more listenable -- as opposed to danceable -- obscure vocal samples were looped, usually providing a theme for tracks which lacked singing. Paterson had worked as a roadie for Killing Joke during the '80s, and began to be influenced by the explosion of Chicago house music in England during the mid-to-late-'80s. He joined the A&R department of EG Records -- the home of Brian Eno himself -- and first recorded as the Orb with Jimi Cauty (who had played in the Killing Joke side-project Brilliant and later gained fame as one-half of the KLF). The duo's first release as the Orb, a failed acid-house anthem named "Tripping on Sunshine," appeared on the 1988 compilation album Eternity Project One. In May 1989, the Orb released the Kiss EP, a four-tracker dedicated to -- and heavily sampled from -- New York's KISS-FM. Paterson had begun to DJ in London around this time, and Paul Oakenfold recruited him to man Land of Oz, the chill-out room at his club Heaven. Paterson's ambient sets incorporated a wide array of samples and sound effects, ranging from BBC nature recordings to NASA space broadcasts and special effects. With those samples mixed underneath the music of ambient pioneers such as Eno and Steve Hillage, his sets became popular alternatives for dancefloor victims and worn-out club kids. Hillage happened to be in the room one night when Paterson sampled his Rainbow Dome Musick album. The two became friends and later recorded together, Hillage contributing guitar to the Orb's "Blue Room" single and Paterson working on the debut album by Hillage's System 7 project (or 777, as it is known in the States due to copyright problems with Macintosh). The Orb's first actual foray into ambient-house appeared in October 1989 on Paterson's WAU!/Mr. Modo label. The 22-minute single "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld," which sampled ocean noises and Minnie Riperton's "Loving You," actually hit the U.K. charts that year. The single became popular with indie-kids as well as club DJs, and earned Paterson and Cauty the chance to re-record the song in December 1989 for a John Peel session. (That version was released two years later, alongside their second session, on the Orb's Peel Sessions album). In early 1990, Dave Stewart asked Paterson and Cauty to remix his single "Lilly Was Here"; the track hit the U.K.'s Top 20, and the Orb's remix work soon became just as popular as their original material. Erasure, Depeche Mode, Yello, Primal Scream and more than 20 other bands eventually received the remix treatment before Paterson began to cut back his remixing work in 1992. (One of the only outside remixes of Orb material occurred around this time when breakbeat pioneers Coldcut remixed the Kiss EP for a U.S.-only single.) Alex Paterson and Jimi Cauty had been recording an album during the turn of 1989-90, but the two split in April 1990 -- a result of Paterson's fear that the Orb had become known more as a KLF side-project than an original act. Cauty stripped Paterson's contribution to the recordings and released the eponymous album -- credited simply as Space -- later that year. (Cauty released another ambient album that year: Chill Out, this time with his KLF partner Bill Drummond.) In the meantime, Alex Paterson had been working with Youth (from Killing Joke) on the new track "Little Fluffy Clouds," with a melody incorporated from composer Steve Reich. The single appeared in November 1990, sparking the wrath of the sampled Rickie Lee Jones, whose dialogue with Levar Burton -- from the PBS-TV children's program Reading Rainbow -- was sampled for the chorus and title of the track; Big Life later settled out of court for an undisclosed sum. Though the single failed to place in the charts, its laidback vibe made it a big hit on the dancefloor. Youth's other commitments made it unable for him to become a permanent member of the Orb, so Paterson decided to recruit Kris Weston (nicknamed Thrash for his punk/metal roots), a young studio engineer who worked on "Little Fluffy Clouds" and had recently left his previous band, Fortran 5. The Orb performed live for the first time just after the pairing, early in 1991 at London's Town & Country 2 with Steve Hillage on guitar. The group's live dates soon became their forte, breaking down the boundaries which had previously separated electronic music from rock. An Orb show encompassed the best elements of performance hall and club, with colorful light shows and visuals, and a relaxed, positive groove rarely found in electronic circles. All this was fine and good, but the Orb had not yet released an album, the vehicle which virtually all modern musician use to make artistic statements. Finally, in April 1991, The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld was released in England to considerable critical acclaim. Its popularity extended to the general public as well, pushing the double-album into Great Britain's Top 30 LP charts. By mid-1991, the Orb had signed a deal to release Ultraworld in the States, but were forced to edit the album down to one disc. (The full double-disc version was later released in the U.S. by Island.) Paterson and Thrash toured Europe during 1991, and compiled the Orb's first two Peel Sessions in November 1991. One month later, the duo released The Aubrey Mixes as a Christmas special. The album, a remix compilation with reworkings by Steve Hillage, Youth and Jimi Cauty, was deleted on the day of its release, but still managed to place in the U.K. Top 50. In June 1992, the new single "Blue Room" hit the British Top Ten. The longest single in chart history at just under 40 minutes, it earned the Orb a spot on Top of the Pops, where they ruminated over a chess game and waved at the camera while a three-minute edit of the single played in the background. Released in July, the album U.F.Orb concentrated not on space, but the beings that inhabit it. (The actual 'Blue Room' is an installation where the U.S. government allegedly keeps the relics of a 1947 saucer crash outside Roswell, NM.) It hit number one on the British album charts, and also did well with critics, who praised it and the duo's sold-out tour of England. The non-album single "Assassin" -- originally slated to feature vocals from Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie -- followed in October, and it reached number 12 on the British charts. The U.S. release of U.F.Orb appeared two months later, with initial copies including a second disc with the full version of "Blue Room" plus mixes of "Assassin." A limited LP release of U.F.Orb in England included a live recording of the Orb's appearance at London's Brixton Academy in 1991. (The date was later released on video with an added CD soundtrack as Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld: Patterns and Textures.) Though the Orb had released several hours of recordings and many remixes during its first three years of existence, the beginning of 1993 prompted a dry spell of over a year and a half. The problem wasn't a lack of material; Paterson and Thrash continued to record, but Big Life Records had begun a controversial campaign to reissue several early singles. The Orb threatened to release no new material until the label promised to cease and desist, and negotiations stalled while the duo looked to opt out of their contract. In the meantime, Big Life spent 1993-94 reissuing five CD singles and two other 12-inch releases, including "Little Fluffy Clouds" (which hit the British Top Ten), "Huge Ever Growing Pulstating Brain" and "Perpetual Dawn" (the second single from Ultraworld). Paterson finally signed an international deal with Island in 1993 and released the stop-gap Live 93 later that year. The double-disc set -- which hit number 23 in the album charts -- included highlights from Orb appearances in Europe and Japan, and featured another clever dig at Pink Floyd: the cover has a large stuffed sheep suspended over a power station, alá the Floyd's Animals cover. The Orb's first studio release for Island appeared in June 1994. Pomme Fritz (a "little album") was quite a departure from ambient-house, the field that had since caught up with Paterson's revolution of the late '80s. The album has a schizophrenic quality that portrays the group caught between two worlds: the pastoral ambience of the first two albums, and the harsher, almost industrial, rhythms which the Orb were pushing forward. Pomme Fritz made number six on the British charts, but critics hated it, charging that Paterson had finally disappeared up his own arse. They even compared him to Pink Floyd's own Syd Barrett, who masterminded the psychedelic classic Piper at the Gates of Dawn, but later slipped out of the band as the world's first -- and most popular -- acid casualty. Pomme Fritz was also a watershed in that the role of Kris Weston had diminished highly. Credited on Pomme Fritz only as an engineer, Weston did appear with Paterson on the August 1994 side-project FFWD, the collaboration between Robert Fripp, Orb members Paterson and Weston, and Orb contributor Thomas Fehlmann (hence the name: Fripp, Fehlmann, Weston, and Doctor). By early 1995, Weston finally left the Orb to devote time to his own projects, though no material has since surfaced. Before the duo separated, however, they teamed for the Orb's most famous live appearance: on a rave bill at Woodstock 2 with Orbital, the Aphex Twin and Deee-Lite. Taking up the slack from Weston's departure was Thomas Fehlmann. The Orb had previously remixed a single from his Sun Electric project, and most of Pomme Fritz was recorded at his Berlin studios. Finally, almost three years after U.F.Orb, the new and improved group released the Orb's third studio LP, Orbus Terrarum. With a concept and a sound rooted firmly on terra firma, the album's dense rhythms and return to natural samples heralded a turn away from the cosmic fascination within ambient-house -- which had been nurtured in large part by Ultraworld and U.F.Orb. During 1995, Paterson and Fehlmann mounted an ambitious world tour. After the release of a double-disc remix compilation, the Orb returned to the great beyond with the spacey sounds of 1997's Orblivion. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: rachel Subject: Re: (orb) a little orb bio i came across Date: 24 Feb 2000 15:21:48 -0800 where did this bio come from? i'm a bit skeptical about parts, most especially: >appearances in Europe and Japan, and featured another clever dig at Pink >Floyd: the cover has a large stuffed sheep suspended over a power station, >al=E1 the Floyd's Animals cover. i am recalling a quote from LX himself (possibly from Vox magazine, some years ago?) regarding the fact that he lives (lived) across from the power station, hence the inspiration to do the Animals spoof. >between Robert Fripp, Orb members Paterson and Weston, and Orb contributor >Thomas Fehlmann (hence the name: Fripp, Fehlmann, Weston, and Doctor). i'm sure LX would be happy to know that his name has been dropped all together, in favour of Doctor title! =3D) guess i'm being a bit cheeky, but i always thought it stood for Duncan, myself... =3D) rachel # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: rachel Subject: (orb) what's your favourite cd store?

Rachel, It seems that for most domestic releases, CDNow suits me just fine. However, for the rarer imports (we over here across the pond call them that ;-) ) I find a lot of help from the overseas dealers, preferrably: Virgin UK AB-CD German Music Express (musicexpress.com) Lakeshore Record Exchange (alternativemusic.com) I know, I know...

For example, last november, I pre-ordered Tori Amos' "To Venus And Back", a Tori CD single, and NIN's "The Fragile" on the same day. Both CDs were %40 off, and I had a $15 off a $35 purchase coupon. Including shipping, I got all 3 for a hair over $20. Either one of the 2 CDs would be $17-$19 in my local store, not including Sales Tax.

Date: 25 Feb 2000 09:32:24 -0600 >Ok, there are tons of online cd stores. But can >anyone tell me the *advantage* to purchasing cds >online, as opposed to going to the local cd store? For me, it's primarily about selection. The stores in Fort Worth, Texas don't have much in the way of smaller electronica labels and that kind of thing, and if you ask the clerk about them, you get a funny look. I even had a hard time finding Orbus Terrarum the day it was released. I had to visit four stores before I found one that had gotten it in stock, and they only had two copies. To find a decent selection, I usually drive an hour to Dallas, or if I feel like a road trip, I start the three hours to Austin. And even in the stores with a decent selection, 80 - 90% of the time they don't have a listening station where I can hear the music before I buy. Online stores usually have listening samples, and even if they are tinny realaudio samples, I can usually get a feel for what I'm ordering. After I order, they come straight to my house, I don't have to drive to go pick up my stuff. And if it comes to Warp, Skam, Rephlex or Musik Aus Strom, forget it. Mail order is my only possible avenue. On non-electronic oriented music, I can usually find what I'm looking for in the local stores, but there just doesn't seem to be a great source for electronic music around me, so I resort to online ordering. In my opinion, the online music sites I order from are much more informed than my local record shop clerks, and give better customer service.

The only reason I'd order online is if I'm too busy to go out there and get it myself. Before my currently location, the nearest really good record stores were 1-2 hours away. Being in grad school, that meant I was never able to find enough time to make the trip. Online stores allowed me to get stuff. The flip side is that if you aren't ordering enough, you're going to lose out on shipping.

Imports usually cost significantly more around here than they do from, say, 101cd.com -- especially for singles and midlines. They are usually still cheaper online after shipping costs in my experience.

I've never been a big fan or either Biosphere or Higher Intelligence Agency, but I found a CD in the clearance bin of the local HMV that has blown me away...it's been quite a while since I've heard an ambient CD that was I thought was really innovative but this is it. Listen to this description from the liner notes: "Tromso, 70 degrees north, in the Arctic region, in the middle of the most active northern lights zone....Geir Jenssen of Biosphere and Bobby Bird of HIA were commissioned by Nor Concerts to collaborate together on a musical project to take place in Geir's home town of Tromso Norway. The brief was for them to perform 3 concerts, using sounds sourced from the area as the basis of the music--the machinery of the local mountain cable lift, the snow, the ice, etc...the performances from which this recoding is taken, took place on top of a mountain above Tromso, in a cabin reached by the cable car, in which the audience were transported up the mountain in turn." Great stuff, makes me think of Aphex's ambient works vol 1, just to give an idea...Only 5000 of these puppies were ever made. Maybe it'll turn up in YOUR local HMV bargain bin? Also stumbled upon a Yello 2x12" for "Do It" that has some fantastic remixes from Thomas Fehlmann & Sun Electric....

Well, for the most part, his music is still in print, although the distribution I think has been ceased for the most part in this country, for reasons unbeknownst to be. Regardless, his music is still readily available in the stores. Maya may be out of print now, though. > Anyone on this list who isn't familiar with Banco de Gaia > (what does that mean anyway? Bank of Earth?) It's taken from Verdi's opera of the same name, and it DOES mean Bank of Earth, literally speaking. I'm not sure what it means in context of the opera, because I've not been keeping up on my classical music as of late (bad me!!!). > should > *RUN* and get something--you won't be disappointed.

I recently added the magical sounds to my collection -- I had never heard any of Banco de Gaia's stuff before and thought I'd check it out. I actually *was* disappointed, but that's happened with artists before who I later came to like. The best purchase I made recently, however, was "premiers symptomes" by Air -- blew me away and I can't wait to get more however the only decent record store around me has only the one album (which is really just a collection of singles) but I think they're going to carry the new Air album (due out in a few weeks I think). Yet another reason why I look for my cds (not to mention books) online because the availability in Small Town, USA is exactly nil (and without a car is even worse). # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Agust 'Nemesis1' Arni Jonsson" Subject: Re: (orb) Thank you!!!

Last Train to Lhasa is still my favorite, but imho Magical Sounds of is a really good album especially the 'Touching the Void' & 'Frog's Dinner' tracks... freaking amazing tracks, I completely flip out over those :) >Well, for the most part, his music is still in print, although the >distribution I think has been ceased for the most part in this country, for >reasons unbeknownst to be.

The Orb don't have digs at Pink Floyd. As confirmed by the Melody Maker (?or NME?) cover appearance and story (quite a few years ago) of Dr Alex and Dave Gilmour, PF were an inspiration to the Orb.

It's understandable I guess, but it wouldn't take too much research by an Orbital (or indeed an Orb) fan for it to be obvious. It seems strange to me that someone would be interested in collecting material by Orbital yet not know enough about them to be aware that Blue Danube is by the Orb and not the brothers...
