On the tix, it says "Chemical Brothers/the Orb" and some of the local newspapers are advertising it only as the Chemical Brothers. The one advertisement I've seen has the Chemical Brothers listed at the top, and the Orb listed in the middle of the ad. Maybe it's an equal billing thing...

My name is Robert Bijleveld, 23 years old and living in Holland. Since 1993 I am an Orb fan. I got into the orb through the KLF "Chill Out". Ever since then I collect everything about Orb. I think Orbliviion is very much like adventures.. and UF Orb. So I think the Orb are really back, alive and kickin'. Looking forward to the Paris and Amsterdam concert and Pinkpop.

Yes, they've been performing it live since the beginning of time and it's been taped off and bootlegged and broadcast over the radio and over the net dozens of times I'm sure. That doesn't change the fact that this is the first time the track has legitimately appeared on a release. -- ::: Lazlo (lazlo@swcp.com; http://www.swcp.com/lazlo) ::: Internet Music Wantlists: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo/Wantlists # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: adnan@walrus.com (Adnan) Subject: (orb) orb in nyc Date: 01 Apr 1997 21:01:21 -0500 (EST) anybody got anymore info about the hammerstein, madison sq. garden gigs? much obliged if you do. adnan # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Neil Kelly" Subject: Re: (orb) orb in nyc Date: 01 Apr 1997 22:31:04 -0500 > > anybody got anymore info about the hammerstein, madison sq. garden gigs? > > much obliged if you do.

Personal music preference aside, when I go to an Orb show, I go to see one thing: The Orb. Yeah, I want a couple of good DJs, I think that goes with the territory. But other bands are really just a distraction. Plus you can always hope that if it's just the Orb on the bill, maybe they'll play a little longer than they would have if they had to make way for the Chems. And a longer Orb set is definitely a good thing. -Christina # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Devius1@aol.com Subject: Re: (orb) orb in nyc Date: 02 Apr 1997 16:39:06 -0500 (EST) I got the flyer for the ORB show in nyc the info line# is 212.726.2725 Matt E.

And a longer Orb set is definitely a good thing. Unfortunately this wasn't the case with any of the March UK shows, including the all-nighters, as they stuck to a 1:20 set with no encore.

Well, Alex and Andy may very well like the Chemical Brothers, or perhaps touring with the Chemical Brothers allows them to play in cities they may not be able to book if they were touring alone. Or You know, on second thought, I think it's great that the Orb will be touring with the Chems. Because maybe some kids will go to the see the Chemical Brothers and walk away thinking "that Orb just rocked my world."

Kris & D.A.V.E.S. You Are Evil (But I Like You) Mix a storming techno'd up mix, much better than his 'toxygene' mix. clocks in at 10m 20s. bears little resemblance to the original. a2. Andrea Parker's Besirkskrankenhams Mix a great electro-tinged version, staying a lot closer to the original than Kris' mix. clock in at 7m 05s. btw, that IS the name of the mix! ;-) b1. Blood Sugar Mix a classic weatherall mix, with a mellower feel, building on the original. nice mix, lasting ten seconds over ten minutes in length. b2. The Soul Catcher's Mix lewis' more uptempo trancy mix, with a thumping bass line. definitely one for the clubs. didn't like it much at first, but it's growing on me.... 7m 08s. all in all, four good mixes - no disappointments. joy! afaik, it's due for release on may 5th in the uk - five weeks away! no details on formats or tracklistings yet, but it's almost certain to be a two cd format like 'toxygene', which means that there must be a couple of new tracks, or extra remixes that'll be appearing to. i'm hoping for an extended orb mix of asylum, 'cos it's my favourite track off orblivion - any chance of that andy? laters. -- Smiley a very happy bunny.. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Travis Johnson Ward Subject: Re: (orb) Chem Bros.

Subject pretty much says it all. I go to school at ASU and will miss orb in my home town chicago (boohoo) so I want to take advantage of where I'm going to school and see them in Las Vegas (or even LA even though I don't really like going to LA). Just wondering if anybody with extra room in their car is going to the show from Phoenix. If there's room for two people I might be able to get my driver and companions in free, as one of my friends has some connections is Las Vegas and said he could get into shows for free as long as they are at a hotel/casino type place and I've been told that The Joint is a venue in the Hard Rock hotel/casino. I'll find out soon either way. Oh yeah, I was wondering if anyone who speaks Russian can verify that Chernobyl translates to Wormwood. I remember someone on this list saying that it did. I know Wormwood is the name of some comet or star in Revelations and I think it would be pretty weird if Chernobyl did translate to that. One last note about Wormwood...I was reading this book North and South by Susan Glaskell and they mention Wormwood in it that's why I brought it up in the first place, coincidence....or Celestine Prophesy :-) ?!?!?!?!?!?! matt # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Don Gagen Subject: RE: (orb) Dipp'n Date: 03 Apr 1997 10:33:17 -0600 > ---------- > From: Travis Johnson Ward[SMTP:tjw4459@unix.tamu.edu] > Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 1997 11:29 PM > To: orb > Subject: (orb) Dipp'n > > A couple of days ago there was a guy looking for a copy of Dipping > into > the cyberworld, unfortunately I erased it.

Although CD Europe seems to have a lot to offer, they act only as a liaison between you and other retailers in most cases. You pay extra for them to track down the CDs in their catalog. Most of which are out of print or out of stock. They also have very poor customer service. For instance, I was charged twice for the same CD. It took about 20 e-mails and 2 weeks for them to respond.

I like the Orb and the Chemical brothers both. They make music in much the same way, but their styles differ greatly. The Orb being very ambient and trance like and the Chems having their tight trip hop beats. I guess that is probably where the problem lies. I don't feel that one is better than the other. They have had their hits and misses. As far as headlining the concert is concerned, I believe that the Orb should be given the honor, as they have been around longer and paid their dues in the music industry. However, (this is only an opinion, and there is no need for anyone to get nasty) I was listening to Orb's Tripping on Sunshine and the Kiss ep as well as the Chemical Bros. Song to the Siren and Fourteenth Century Sky ep. In comparison the orb releases are innovative, but mostly a jumble of mismatched beats and samples. This is especially true for the Kiss ep. On the other hand, in listening to Song to the Siren and 14th Century Sky there is cohesiveness that the first Orb releases lack. Everything has its place and fits perfectly. If anyone doubts this many of these tracks made it to their first album. One track in my opinion is quite Orb-like, "One Too Many Mornings". Listen to it if you have the chance it's very good. In the end the Orb has more than made up for its humble beginnings and both bands will always remain favorites of mine.

A strange conclusion in an otherwise sensible post. In the proper hands, turntables are instruments in themselves--in fact, a lot of what people often assume is sampler or drum machine, is in fact, turntable. Still don't see the difference between DAT and a turntable? Try improvising on a DAT machine.

To prevent this from happening to your messages, be sure to include as little text as possible from the message you are responding to.] Definitely, Way Out West are Nick Warren and Jody Wisternoff. They are one the best remixing teams in the UK at the moment, with other forty remixes to their credit. Their style is some way between epic house/ nu-trance/ progressive house/ breakbeat. Most tracks consist of a long bass-filled build-up, which breaks down into a sweeping melody with a real epic feel to it. All this is usually accompanied by all manner of swirls and breakbeats. They did various early tracks under this moniker and others, I don't have the titles to hand though. Tracks to look out for are: Way Out West - 'Ajare' Haven't seen this one anywhere, but it is available on the 'Renaissance Four Mix Collection'. (Mixed by Dave Seaman Ian Ossia. Released on Six6 Records). Way Out West - 'Domination' Released '96 - Three storming mixes. Deconstruction Records Available on CD/VINYL etc Way Out West - 'The Gift' featuring Miss Joanna Law Summer of 96 tune - light/fluffy/sunny mixes Deconstruction Records Available on the usual. There is a debut album coming soon, and a new single. Remixes and mixes to numerous to name, but they have given the following a 'musical seeing to'. Section-X 'Atlantis' Perfecto Fluoro Dubstar - 'Stars' Lucky Monkeys - 'Bjango' Dubstar again The Orb (naturally) Both members are also talented DJ's, with Warren being the most experienced. His sets begin with trip-hop/breaks then go into house, then hardhouse, building up to light then storming underground trance, usually followed by some tracks of the epic variety to finish it all off. For an example of Nick Warren at his best, try the following: Global Underground - 'Live In Prague' - Mixed By Nick Warren. Jody on the other hand is probably half Warrens age!! He has begun to make waves on the UK DJ circuit, after continuing what Nick Warren started at a club called 'Lakota' in Bristol,(South West of England). Way Out West's first live appearance will be at Tribal Gathering '97, I won't be there though, 'cos I'll be at the Brighton Essential Festival for the Orb, Eat Static, Dreadzone, Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, CJ Bolland, Apollo Four Forty, Fluke, and many more!

Still > don't see the difference between DAT and a turntable? Try improvising on a > DAT machine. > John Well, yes turntables are instruments in themselves but the point is you're still manipulating a signal. What difference does it make where the signal emminates from? If I mix a disc into my performance, all I'm really doing is taking a signal and doing something with it -- truly, what's the difference? You're still manipulating an audio signal. It could come from an old wax cylinder and I'm sure someone creative with technology would be able to do something with it. As for improvising on a DAT, well, I do make DATs for performance use, and I have them hooked up to one of my 4-channel DSPs. I kick in the DAT and twiddle to my heart's content. Punch samples, bends, all sorts of effects .... I could abstract with just two DATS and a 4-channel DSP all night long and if you heard a tape of it you'd never know what the source signal was. I like DATs because I can index 99 things on a single DAT, get 2 hours on a single tape (continuous, great for taping sets even though I normally do that at 33k and get 4 hours continuous), and cueing time is quick, even if my desired material is on track 99. But the best thing is that DATs don't weigh ten thousand pounds like vinyl does and the gear to play them on fits in a 4"x2'x3' roadcase for my rackmount deck, and in my pocket for my portable deck. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "michelle."

Date: 09 Apr 1997 12:39:34 -0700 (PDT) I apologize if the following has been discussed already, but I just now joined the list (mainly to discuss this) can anyone understand what the guy in Orb's S.A.L.T. (Orblivion track 7) is saying? I understand he is talking about correlations between the book of revelations and today... in the first part he is going off about how in the book of revelations it described how no one could do business with out the mark of the devil, and the mark of the devil is '666'. Unless you had that on your right hand you couldn't buy or sell. "What could such a specific prophesy mean? What is the mark?" Then he talks about how today's "mark of the devil" is "the barcode, the ubiqutous barcode" and soon they will want to tatoo a barcode on your right hand or forehead JUST AS PROPHESIED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS. Anyway, I was curious about two things: a) is that true? i.e. is anyone _really_ talking about tatooing barcodes on people? I'm thinking it would have to be in China or something... b) what does he mean by this quote "every barcode is divided into two parts by the free markets, and those free markets are represented by the number '6666'" What is he talking about? What are the "free markets"? And what does the number 6666 have to do with them? btw i loooooove that song. creepy especially when you listen to the words.

What are the "free markets"? >And what does the number 6666 have to do with them? OK -- for this one I'm going to have to have you help out. Grab any box near you that contains a 10-digit UPC (5-digit UPCs don't count, so don't grab that can of Dew). Take a look at the beginning, direct middle and end of the bars: you'll see two thin, closely spaced lines dividing the 5 "digits" of the UPC. Now, see if that UPC code contains a 6: look directly above the 6, and you'll see, as the code for the number 6, two thin, closely spaced lines. So, when a scanner reads a UPC code, it sees the 10 digits separated into two groups of 5 by three UPC representations of the number 6. The three evenly spaced 6's, 666, the mark of the beast. Get it? So is it true that UPC codes use 666 as a control code? Absolutely. Does that mean the apocalypse is nigh and we'll all have UPC codes tattooed or implanted into us by our respective governments? Naah. Johnny's just sayin' that to freak you out. >btw i loooooove that song. creepy especially when you listen to the >words.

Can't tell if this acutally holds up - maybe somewhere in Europe it does.

Yes, James, I had read your post. But what your post didn't explain is -why- someone would think that the bar code was the mark of the beast.

I can't resist throwing in my $.02 on this discussion any longer. The book of Revelation is the most misinterpreted book of the Bible. The reason its written in such strange symbolic language (seven horsemen, seven trumpets, rivers of blood, etc.) is because it was written at the time when the Romans were persecuting the Christians. The language concealed the fact that they are Christian writings from the Romans, although all the Christians of ther period could interpret the meaning. Pick up any good translation of the Bible that is heavily footnoted and you'll find the symbolism is well-explained. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the samples. But I try not to take them too seriously :-) Steve # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Rex C.

Date: 12 Apr 1997 10:14:21 +0100 I just came back from the Paris gig, and yep should I say I'm a really happy man ? I first met Robert and his friend who came just from Netherlands to see the concert. I showed them two places where thay could find Orb stuff. Myself, I found AON's "Art of love" 12" for just 3$ ! We ate together and after that, went to La Cigale, a cosy and small concert hall (smaller than the Bercy hall where they played in 1995). I think it was DJ Lewis who played a set before Orb, and it was a real good one, much better than the DJ sets in Brixton Academy. We (Sophie, my girlfriend and I) met Andy, who is a really friendly guy. We offered to him some cheesy French soundtrack records, and storybooks for children. Maybe they will use these ones for future samples ! Then the concert started at 8:00 pm, a very early start for an Orb concert. Excellent sound, though. They played : Secrets Blue Room Asylum PI Outlands Delta MkII A huge ever growing... (just the intro) Plateau (of normality) started like the Serious Road Trip mix, and ended crazy Bedouin (between the album mix and The Sheiks (Herb Garden)) Majestic (hysteric) S A L T Toxygene ( a real anthem) I think it's the best set with the Nimes arena in 95' that I saw. Not too much samples, like in Brixton. It's our 6th time we saw them, and it's always different. After that, we had a drink with Andy (like I said, a real cool guy), saw LX a bit (but not much, he seems to be shy). I think Andy wouldn't mind if I tell you what he said to us : He's not Ganja Kru. (that's for you, Smiley. He said hello to u "Good old Miles") After the Asylum 12" and the American tour, they plan to go back to Berlin to do a new EP, with 4/5 tracks; it might come out in late August, or later. David Fincher (Seven, Alien3) offered them to do the whole soundtrack of his new movie, "The Game" (I think, with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn), but they weren't able to do that, because of the Oblivion tour. But they have other offers to do movie scores, like for the next Bond movie. (it's not signed yet, so let's keep it for us, okay ? :-)) He told me other things, they did a gig in Besancon ( a small French town) the day before Paris, they were only 60 guys in the crowd, if I didn't misunderstand him. But it was mad, and they did a special version of Little Fluffy Clouds for them. Did you know that he worked as a sound engineer for Galliano ? (a French guy told me that) And Andy seems to be involved in a project called Cassiopea (with Japanese guys, but I may be wrong). Another thing, in August, they seem to go to a festival in Japan near the Fuji mountain. Great, but may be too far for me. A French television recorded the whole set on video for a show, it seems that that will be aired pretty soon (just a one or two tracks, it seems). That's all I can remember right now. Maybe some other stuff will come to mind tomorrow, I don't know. Hey, US pals, don't miss them ! JC From Paris PS : Did I tell you that I'm a screenwriter for French television ? I sold a script for a cartoon adventure serie last year, called Bob Morane : Service Secrets Soucoupes (UFO Secret Service) I called three characters in the script : Fehlmann is a thief, Hughes is a man who works in a UFO related objects store, and Paterson is the big bad guy of the episode. Andy laughed at the idea. It will come out in France and Canada in Christmas 97/beginning of 98, I don't know if they sold the serie to US and UK televisions. We'll see. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: nhetrick Subject: Re: (orb) Oh joys of joys !

I've heard some song samples, and read some reviews (good and bad). Basically, I WANT IT! Please, please, please let me know where I can get this CD. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Secondly, this is my first post to the list. Here's a very brief synopsis of my orb-related history, preferences: First contact (audio only): 1993 - bought ULTRAWORLD, and loved it. First official contact (audio-visual): 1996 - Enit festival. Loved it. Fav release: ORBVS TERRARVM Fav track: Plateav Fav sample: "The Faith Healer" (Little Fluffy Clouds, Live '93) ORBLIVION review: Very enjoyable. Not quite ORBVS or ULTRAWORLD, but a lot of fun. POMME FRITZ review (everyone has and opinion): Glorified single, but interesting. What I would change: I WOULD OWN THE FFWD CD... a huge evergrowing yo!

I played it right out of the package and it popped quite a bit for such a new record. I am thinking that it might have something to do with the type of vinyl that was used. It is clear with green flecks of glitter spread through it. I figure the problem is the glitter that is nearest to the surface of the record that is causing the popping. Has this happened to anyone else who bought this record or any other made in the same way?

Doors opened at 22.00 just like the other times The Orb visited Amsterdam. Paradiso is an old church so the perfect place to visit concerts like this. Paradiso sold out so about 1.200 people got in and the place was packed! We're upstairs just above the stage so we got a good look on the things Alex, Andy and some other guy we're doing. The Orb started to play at 22.30. I remember: Secrets Blue Room Asylum PI Outlands Delta MKII Platteau Bedouin Majestic SALT Toxygene Between the tracks all kind of strange samples and loads of old disco, funk and hiphop stuff. Before they started Toxygene a completely naked (!) guy came on the stage pulling some object (a giant fish?) over the audience. Strange but funny. After Toxygene they left but the audience was too excited to let them go. So a couple of minutes later they came on again and played the best version of Little Fluffy Clouds I ever heard!!! The intro was a mix of A Huge Ever, Towers of Dub and more older material. Then came the voice telling us about those clouds and the beats came in. HEAVY!! The Orb played for an hour and 45 minutes. After that DJ Lewis kicked Paradiso with a very very good set of pumping techno. A night to remember.

Date: 14 Apr 1997 11:25:00 0BS ---------- OK -- for this one I'm going to have to have you help out. Grab any box near you that contains a 10-digit UPC (5-digit UPCs don't count, so don't grab that can of Dew). Take a look at the beginning, direct middle and end of the bars: you'll see two thin, closely spaced lines dividing the 5 "digits" of the UPC. Now, see if that UPC code contains a 6: look directly above the 6, and you'll see, as the code for the number 6, two thin, closely spaced lines. So, when a scanner reads a UPC code, it sees the 10 digits separated into two groups of 5 by three UPC representations of the number 6. The three evenly spaced 6's, 666, the mark of the beast. Get it? So is it true that UPC codes use 666 as a control code? Absolutely. Does that mean the apocalypse is nigh and we'll all have UPC codes tattooed or implanted into us by our respective governments? Naah. Johnny's just sayin' that to freak you out. >btw i loooooove that song. creepy especially when you listen to the >words. It's the track I never listen to on Orblivion: watching Naked, where this dialogue is sampled from, is a much more fascinating (and creepy) experience. Had I never seen Naked, I'd think the song was cool too -- but the movie is that much better. SO SPAKE Dave Cowen. Here are my comments to this posting :- After hearing "Orblivion" I looked up details about barcoding and couldn't work out any 666's anywhere. Now Dave has explained it I see how Mike Leigh may have got the idea.I checked a barcode on a coke can (which had a six in the number) and sure enough his idea was confirmed. However,the explanation is actually wrong (even though it may explain M.Leigh's observations) because the 2 thinly spaced lines aren't quite what they appear , but part of a larger symbol. If we use 0 for a space and 1 for a line(or bar) then the left most and right most guard bars are actually 101 but the centre (or center for American readers ) division is 01010---so all 3 could be interpreted as only 2 bars,especially as the actual bars are longer than the rest of the barcode numbers. Any 6 to the right of the centre division would be coded as 1010000 which again only shows 2 bars. However,a 6 on the left hand side would be coded as 0101111 which wouldn't look like 101 or 2 bars. The final digit is a check number mathematically derived from all the previous numbers. After a lot of thinking I found a way of making a self-referential check digit. The digit in this case is included in the calculation and the answer is itself. Such a barcode has other interesting properties too. I saw a URL for a place that discusses barcodes and would like to post the method for discussion but I can't find it anymore. Does anyone know the address ?

(C) 1994 inter-modo that's all the information i know to give you, all the rest is just specific to the individual tracks. designers republic did the design work, but you wouldn't know it, it looks very 70's homemade on the front. cream color cover with brown-ink rendering of three of the gnomes: (i think it's) paterson's bald head, fripp's astral saturn-guitar, the third - don't know if it's thrash or fehlmann, but he's got bells in his hair and is playing lx's flute-nose... very magick type of feel. it's great. i hope you find it. if you don't, you can email me and i'll make a copy for you for the price of tape and postage, it's just beautiful. one of those 'don't leave mind without one' recordings, the number of which i can count on a very few fingers. this winter, soon after i got it, i was at a large convention, and during one of the afternoons, i just went for a long walk playing it in my earbuds (some deep deep bass resonances at points they couldn't handle) and danced and watched the dance of the crowds of 'purposeful' people around me. and everything became beautiful. if someone finds a surefire way to get it, please share w/the list, you'll be doing a real service.

It was the first time we were in Paris so we behaved like tourists. We went to the Eiffel-tower and the Arc de Triomphe, both very impressive. After that we went to the funeral to pay a visit to Jim Morrison. We arranged a meeting with JC and saw some record shops with him. I foud the following records: CD single of Suzuki's Sattellite Serenade, a System 7 CD and Pomme Fritz (viandes et legumes, the french version). After that we had a quick dinner and went to the concert. La Cigale was a very nice place, only one thing was not great, theprice of a beer was FF 25,- that is US$ 5. The concert was very good, lots of great samples and weird stuff (I think you have all read JC's report). After the concert I spoke to Andy for a few minutes. He was surprised to hear we came from Holland just to see the concert. He also asked if I new Nico, so I greeted him from you Nico. There was no chance to get backstage because it was very busy. I think Andy was trying to escape himself. After the concert we went to the station and slept till our train came. The Amsterdam concert showed the same numbers in the same order, but was still different. They used other or new samples or the same in another way. In Amsterdam the crowd was so nice that they played Fluffy Clouds as an extra. After the concert I met Nico who brougt me some Orb-stuff he bought for me in London. So I think this was the best (Orb)weekend I ever had. Andy, if you are reading this, THANKS. See ya Robert _____________________________________________________________________ Sent by RocketMail.

I must admit to not enjoying the last couple of discs so much, but I think Orblivion is a return to form and I was gutted to miss the recent Brixton Allnighter, due to the imminent arrival of my third sprog (it was a boy, by the way). The reason I went to see the Orb on that fateful night, was actually to see Steve Hillage, who had not appeared live (as far as I was aware) for many years. I have been a big fan of Steve's music for many years and was pleased when I found that he was now involved in "dance" music as I had also become interested in this field. I am a musician myself, and have played guitar in "psychedelic" bands and was involved in the Free Festival scene during the eighties. It was when sound systems, such as the Spiral Tribe, started coming to festivals that I became interested in the music they were playing, as it seemed much more interesting than most of the guitar based music I was hearing. I now play in a Dance/Psychedelic hybrid band, that we have slowly (a bit too slowly for my liking) been forming, what I hope is, a unique sound. We still use some guitar, but mix it with Analogue synths and samplers. In fact, we tend to loop guitar parts, giving them a new and unexpected feel. Anyway, I've waffled on too much probably. We are hoping to get out and do some live gigs soon, so if anyone knows of any good places to play that might be interested in a band with Orb influences, dancey and dub but definitely not purist "dance" please let me know (UK preferably - but what the heck - tell us anyway).

Date: 18 Apr 1997 03:17:34 PST welll... i'll tell you what the pittsburgh version of rave is. first of all, rave isn't a style of music... it's a place where you go to dance to music. there are many styles played at raves (esp. in pittsburgh) *house - a 4/4 beat just on 1/2/3/4, the kinda shit you hear in club & such ---house breaks down into many catagories including funky house (on the 70's tip), deep house, hard house, acid house (which has a whole lotta bleeps and bloops) *jungle - aka drumnbass - superfast breakbeats with half-speed basslines ---jungle breaks down into, techstep (techno beat brought to the next millenium with superfast breakbeat thrown on top @ lightning speeds), hardstep, intelligent (on the ambient tip), jazzy (on the beatnik tip), jump-up (on the rap tip) *trance - house w/ an ambient feel *techno - general techno... doesn;t stick to strick 1/2/3/4 usually *hardcore - 160+ bpm... very intense *happy hardcore - cheesy as hell in a good way 160+bpm techno. i forgot a whole buncha stuff... but that's mainly what's up. ------frankie g # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Ethan Subject: (orb) help: Date: 17 Apr 1997 14:44:51 -0400 (EDT) does anyone here know or have any contact with teiwazbarana@hotmail.com, aka Thomas Barkhurst of Salinas, California?

If you do a generic search for 'Hawkwind' you will find it in the lower 'imports' section of the retrieval. In there you will notice it for $14.99 and its listed as a compilation. I got this information from the O.O.B.E booklet, so while it may sound informative, it may be pure fiction, though this CD matches. They list it as a 'single', though and this claims a compilation. -- Robert Sink - Systems Administrator Chesapeake Biological Laboratory - Solomons, MD.

If you've never heard about Freaknik watch CNN Friday when it starts. "It has been an incredible journey from the first FREAKNIK back in 1982, when seventy-five people gathered for a springbreak party. Fifteen years later, FREAKNIK is the nation’s largest and most exciting single event for African-American college students. This year it’s anticipated FREAKNIK will attract over 450,000 visitors to Atlanta’s Centennial Olympic Park, April 18th through the 20th. Additionally, via the Freaknik Website and Cyberhood Studios, the Internet will bring people together from across the country and around the world to celebrate FREAKNIK ‘97" (http://www.freaknik.com/) I know I've been in Atlanta before durring freaknik and it took 1 hour go about 1/2 mile (that was the year (94?) that they had the riots). It's a lot of fun though, be sure to grab a couple freaknik t-shirts while you're in town....

The CD is nice, but the tracks can be found on the Orb anthology II. The book is full of very bad errors. Two of the worst being that Silver Machine and Numb had been released.

I actually got turned on to them from their Pink Floyd connections and by listening to some of the dialogue that took place on the Echoes mailing list. I got tickets to the Dallas show on April 24th and I am wondering what to expect at Orb concerts. Chemical Brothers, who I have never heard before, are in this show also. The show is at "The Bomb Factory". Do the Chemical Brothers come on first? How long are the shows (or each set)? Are people dancing around or sitting or standing or what? Anybody been to the "Bomb Factory" in Dallas and know what it is like? Does The Orb have a set playlist that they have been using or is it random? Can someone point me to some reviews, web sites, or backissues of the digest that tell some of these things? Also, I read that they have been cancelling some shows. When do you find out that the show is cancelled. If the show is a week away am I safe?

Thats like saying I'm human and I even like sex!!! I would be hard pressed to choose between Pomme Fritz and Orbus Terrarum but I would put it above any other album of da Orbs that I have heard (apart from Orbus or course)! The only thing Orbus wins over by is its length (size really does matter to some people!) Orblivion fine, but PF and OT are :) Everyone goes on about U.F.Orb but I would have to place it down near the bottom of the supermodel status (around Kate Moss or someone) along with the Adventures of the Underworld. I would probably put the Auntie Aubreys Spring Collection (thingy thingy) after PF and OT Just because of that Killing Joke song (Democracy) and some other real nice ambient stuff on it! You do redeem yourself though by mentioning Derek Jarman who worked with Coil and Throbbing Gristle and others for music and produced some excellent FILMS!! (FILMS standing for not exactly what you would get from "Holi-Would" but actual audio-visual presentations!) All the other stuff is acceptable too! Anyone else wanna rippin'??? Adios!

Lots of Thomas Fehlman in the credits. I'm sure they're all getting paid well, but Island sure does suck. first they delayed the new orb album so the new U2 international hit could come out last fall, which it didn't, then the 2xCD single bullshit - the promos for it didn't even have all the songs - and now a mini-album of remixes that will probably cost 12.95. if they release it - all the copies I've seen have been stamped promo only. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Travis Johnson Ward Date: 22 Apr 1997 01:01:34 -0500 (CDT) my friend was watching 'hard copy' (crappy us.

As I was flipping the pages, I noticed the cover for Ultraworld. Here's what it says: The Orb launched their "Space Age" double album in 1991, bringing the formerly stuffy, highbrow genre of electronic ambient music to a more visceral level. Drawing as much from Pink Floyd and Doctor Who as from Brian Eno, the album slows down the manic pace of techno and fills in the cavernous voids of earlier ambient fare. With gems like "Little Fluffy Clouds" (a lawsuit-provoking song that samples an interview with Rickie Lee Jones), the Orb injected goofy antics and insane-asylum effects into the stiff technophile genre, influencing the course of '90s dance music along the way. Any typos are probably mine... :) Steve s.levering@tcu.edu # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Don Gagen Subject: RE: (orb) UF ORB PROMO Date: 22 Apr 1997 09:44:31 -0500 > ---------- > From: Anne M Galko[SMTP:amgalko@acsu.buffalo.edu] > Sent: Monday, April 21, 1997 10:15 PM > To: Brian Frick > Cc: Orb Mailing List > Subject: Re: (orb) UF ORB PROMO > > > > On Sun, 20 Apr 1997, Brian Frick wrote: > > > Hey, Orbsters, > > > > Question...

Two were used and one was new. I am sure they contained the bonus CD because I checked all of them. If I remember correctly the new one had a sticker on the outside indicating the inclusion of the bonus Blue Room CD. If you compare this with the US Maxi CD singles for for Little Fluffy Clouds and Perpetual Dawn, it really isn't that rare. In four years of searching I have only seen 2 LFC and 1 PD. None of these places are mail order. They are all local to me. Who would be interested in buying these CD's. I might consider purchasing them and putting them up for sale on the list. BTW I have an extra copy of the US little fluffy clouds on CD if someone would like to make an offer. I have another item of interest which is a white label version of the KISS EP. All the markings are exactly the same as the regular release, but instead of having the catalog number MWS 10T etched on it, it has REF 10T. It comes with an info sheet with the WAU MR. MODO letter head at the top. It contains the track names, where they were recorded, who produced them, and a short bio on the orb. If anyone has any more information about this version of the KISS EP let me know. Anyone interested in it can make me an offer. If you happen to have a copy of the Aubrey Mixes on CD I will do a straight trade for it.

Some songs are very orb-like, even using Orb samples such as the Fluffy Clouds version of Shine on Crazy Diamond. You can tell that the LFC was crudely sampled from the album. Wish You Were Here is probably the best followed by Animals, Atom Heart Mother, Division Bell, and Momentary Lapse of Reason. I have not heard Meddle, but I would expect that it is probably quite good judging from the original. There is one more that is kind of a best of album, but the name escapes me. I like it alot.

(or as a local pointed out to us while in a different jam "you look like you're in the wrong part of town.no, no You look like you're in the wrong _FUCKIN'_ part of town" i thought we were all going to die) we finally made it to the club 3min before the doors opened and amazingly enough i was the first name on the guest list (that's just a nice feeling) i didn't get to talk to either andy or LX but they put on a great show!!! they did the encore of LFC which was great but i most enjoyed Tox (which closed the set; amazingly powerful) and the stuff from Adventures...can't remember the order but i remember them playing Blue room, Valley (i think...) SALT, but the best, IMHO, was that they opened with a screwed parody of `my favorite things' but no `they're coming to take me away, haha' the crowd was eclectic from what you expect to total geeks (braces and all) to rednecks (yes full blooded rednecks that you have to visit the south to be able to comprehend). 2/3 into the set there was a fight near the stage and 10 minutes later someone broke a bottle at the same place, not the friendliest crowd. i want to thank Andy and LX for the show and especially Andy for putting me on the list; sorry i didn't get to thank you personally. well, i'll see you again in DC and hopefully get to thank you the (another 11 hours of driving.....)

Date: 23 Apr 1997 09:14:28 -0500 I havent gotten a stright answer fromanywhere on the excat set list... But from my last experiences with the Orb in Chicago they shut the show down at 2am... Rudely might i add... A few of the DJ's were expected to go on later. So don't be surprized if Alex is up there DJing a cool set and they pull the plug on him at exactly 2am... It's happen to Alex before at the Meat Beat show at the Vic. It's these stupid liqor/club license that they have here in Chicago... There are only a few kind of licenses.. two that I know of is a 2am license and 4am licence. And I belive that the Aragon has a 2am license... Although they just changed them slightly... On fridays and saturdays the licenses get exteded by an hour. So 2am goes to 3am and a 4am goes to 5am.... So maybe 3am is the latest this show will go. And yes... Deep Rave is a big marketing ploy.

On the LIVE '93 double CD, both "Valley" and "Plateau" are present. However, they were never officially released on a studio album until ORBVS TERRARVM in '95. Is that correct? I've always been mildly perplexed about the "status" of those two tracks, which happen to be two of my absolute favorites. Were they just tracks that The Orb would perform at their live shows? "Valley", especially, seemed to change quite a bit from LIVE '93 to ORBVS TERRARVM. Did the song titles "Valley" and "Plateau" inspire the "geographic" theme of ORBVS TERRARVM (e.g. the song titles "White River Junction", "Oxbow Lakes", and the album title and cover art)? Were The Orb already planning ORBVS TERRARVM back in '93, or even '92? If so, then what the hell was POMME FRITZ all about? P.S. Don't get me wrong. I really do appreciate most of POMME FRITZ. But, I think it was an excuse to sell a single at an LP price. I mean, "More Gills", "Bang 'Er 'N Chips", ans "Alles Ist Shoen" all feature that same bass-line, and most of the same samples. But, I like them just the same.

These tracks we're made a couple of years back before the problems started with Big Life. In ID (UK Magazine) from 1993 they already mentioned these tracks as the first one's that should appear on the follow-up to UFOrb, but then Big Life started to do there thing. So first they came with Live 93 on Island and after that (and the mini album Pomme) Orbus came with these studio tracks on it. Or something like that...I just came home from a drink with a couple of friends in a local bar and my thinking isn't completely clear at the moment, I think!?!?

I dropped a strong hint to the distributor that they should try and get more discs ASAP to meet the demand of this list. They will let me know. The deal is that Island sent out promo copies to radio stations, plus stores. Stores were advised to give the promo CD for free (can you believe it?) to people purchasing Orblivion on any format. I'd recommend calling your local shops/web sites and asking if they have promo copies available. Most places are not advertising this, so you have to ask. There certainly are more copies out there. If you find a place that has them, get yourself a copy and post the address of the place so others can obtain as well. For the CD's I have now, I will mail people individually to let them know they got one. If I get future copies, I will continue down the list and notify people. I should know more next week on this. Sorry that I am unable to respond individually to all the mail notes. I'm kind of swamped at the moment. I hope everyone has good luck in getting their copy. It would be a good idea to put a bug in the ear of Island records and let them know this mailing list of die-hard's exist and wouldn't it be a good idea to send everyone on the list a free copy. :-) cheers, Sean # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Lazlo Nibble" Subject: (orb) status: Orbscure Trax Date: 25 Apr 1997 13:33:54 -0600 (MDT) > The deal is that Island sent out promo copies to radio stations, > plus stores.

Absolutely fantastic show. Throughout their hour and a half, they vacillated between passages of easy to lull-into deep-base grooves and then they'd launch into some confused, almost random, 4 corners of the room type of vertigo percussive stuff. Then, back to the grooves. Hypnotic... I'm looking to track down a sound byte The Orb played last night. It's a parody of The Sound Of Music's (yes, Julie Andrews and company) "These Are a Few of My Favorite Things". It was to the same tune, but the lady singer's Favorite Things were of a somewhat more Personal Nature than the original... "lashes and dildos and multiple or-gasms..." Does anyone happen to have any idea where this sound byte comes from - or where I might be able to get a .wav of it??? It was one of the funniest things I've ever heard...

I really got a kick out of the sample. At first I thought it was the original, but then I started to pay attention to the words. Something like "...leather, lashes and clitoris rings, these are a few of my favorite things." It was great. I'm interested in finding this track as well. The show was absolutely awesome. The Orb should put out a live album for every tour. The songs sounded so different. The video they showed was really cool too. The Chemical Brothers were much better than the last time I saw them. They improvised much more. It was one of the best shows I've been to.

Tonight I was kicking back and listening to some CD's I haven't heard in quite some time. I came across a "various artist" compilation put out by this label, titled "Artificial Intelligence" (has a green cover with a picture of a human figure sitting in an easy chair listening to a stereo, if that helps jog any memories). I had totally forgotten I had it, and threw it on. While scanning the tracks, I noticed one titled "Loving You Live", by Dr Alex Patterson. I couldn't believe I had missed seeing it on there before! Anyway, I put it on, and it turned out to be short, remixed version of "Huge Ever Pulsating Brain..". Clocking in at about 4:10, it was pretty much the first four minutes of the version on "Ultraworld", but a bit heavier on the chorus'like vocals and the waves. Pretty cool! Does anyone else have this particular CD, or heard this version of "Brain"before? It's seems kind of odd that the song would be on this compilation....the label itself is based here in Chicago. I'm really curious to find out more about it, if anyone has any info. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Christopher J.

Date: 27 Apr 1997 02:19:11 -0500 Well there couldn't have been a more disappointing night. Poor planning caused me too not meet up with anyone before or during the show (Steve L. I couldn't find you.) We waited until 7:45 for people that were suppose to ride with us. Two people never showed... We had to sell the tickets we had goten for them the day before.. (luckily that wasn't to hard). So we don't get there until like 8:45... Some DJ was playing... I searched and searched for everyone I was supposed to meet there. Found about half of them. Then the Orb sneaked up on us and just started playing out of nowhere. Great performance... I was Dissapointed though. their set was short. And the only stuff that wasn't on Orblivion that I can remeber was Outlands and Little fluffy clouds. They then end and that was it for the Orb... Very short very brief. Couple Disco tunes thrown in here and there. But was almost like listening to thier album. Not much different. DJ plays for a while. Then Chem Bros come on. House goes nuts !!!(what about the Orb? doesn't anybody care?) I eventually find one of my other friends, and they ask me when the orb was going to go on. And I tell therm they just heard it.... They couldn't belive that that was it! They expected more(they saw the '95 show that kicked ass)... I suddenly become bored with the Chem Bros... What do I do? Bounce endlessly to thier beats... Then some People start tearing down the Q101 banner(shitty radio station that hosts these oversold shows). One of my friends picks It up and a bouncer grabs him and kicks him out! So I have to leave so he can have a ride home... Walking out the door as Setting Sun comes on the Loudspeakers. And on top of It all. I find out that the Shirt I bought has a big hole in it... I don't know but did anybody feel the Orb's set was too short? Maybe I'm just whining too much. Chicago Music Scene has been going downhill. A bitter Orbster...

Date: 27 Apr 1997 14:07:16 -0400 (EDT) Sean, I'm right there with you. I saw their last show in Chicago and this one didn't even come close. Although they played for nearly two hours, it sure didn't seem like it. Not to mention that the sound was TERRIBLE...the Aragon has always been infamous for that. On a positive note, The Orb themselves were excellent. The set list was the same as has been posted before so I won't do it again - personally, I thought Star 6, 7,8 & 9 was the best. I don't know - perhaps at 25 I'm getting too old for concerts =) but I found the crowd to be very distracting. Maybe it's just where my girlfriend and I were standing, but we were constantly being pushed aside, or having to move because people would just barge their way in front of us....one couple crossed in front of us four times in the course of one song! It's just hard to get into the music, not to mention dance to it, when you constantly feel someone putting their hand on you, spilling beer on you...one moron even had incense to try and cover up his "cigarette"...apparently unaware that he was attracting MORE attention to himself. My shirt still smells like that incense. Well, forgive my rant...it's just that, for $20 a ticket and $15 parking, I felt like I should have enjoyed myself more. Overall, it was great to see the Orb again, though.

Little Fluffy Clouds, a bit twisted and beautiful...the lighting guy was kind enough to set an intellilight on one of those settings where it makes a ring and center it directly on me so i was within an orb of light while the clouds caught the colors everywhere. it was neat, i looked at it the whole time. wow. silence, then from the insane to the inane, everything else was pointless after that so justin and i just smiled at each other, drove home and went to bed. by the way, the set was over two hours... thanks, orb. next time please don't tour with pop stars. love and respect. ryan platte, ryanplatte@pobox.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: BluRoom@aol.com Subject: Fwd: (orb) Chicago--- Blaaaa....

Disc 1 was not in there, just TWO damn disc 2's, so I've only heard half of the stuff. Damn, damn, damn. Did this happen to anyone else? I'll be dropping by Sam Goody tomorrow to set thing straight, hopefully. So far, I like what I've heard... but I need more... Anyway, included with my purchase was a complementary issue of "Request" Magazine. And, what do you know, on page 32... Alex and Andy of the Orb! "The Merry Pranksters" is the title of the article by Barney Hoskyns. Most of the article deals with the Ambient/Techno universe, and The Orb's place in it. Here are some interesting quotes: "...we were saying, 'Mate, we did that in two weeks to get everyone off our backs -- it's a piece of shit.' They just couldn't fathom that we were taking the piss out of our own record, and yet they were calling it a work of genius and madness." Alex, discussing POMME FRITZ, and the reactions of both himself and the media to it. "Future Sound of London are the worst. They're the biggest bunch of arrogant [assholes]." Alex commenting on the 'lamest music currently emanating from the British Isles.' "You can listen to it straight, you can listen to it stoned, and you'll get very different things out of it. But, you don't need the drugs. A lot of people get stoned to listen to our records, but why? With a lot of people who go to clubs now, you can play any old shit, because they're [ecstasyed] out of their 'eads." Andy Hughes. Also, Alex apparently wanted the title of ORBLIVION to be SECRETS OF THE GARDEN OF THE GOLDEN SPATULA. He was outvoted by the other band mates. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Dave Cowen Subject: Re: the (orb) in chicago Date: 27 Apr 1997 23:05:40 -0500 At 06:08 PM 4/27/97 -0500, you wrote: >concert starts like sean said kind of out of nowhere...started same way >as live 93, whatever that metallic slamnoise is, "beautiful state here" >samples, then... My friends and I arrived and stepped foot on the floor of the ballroom immediately as the chimes from the Tape Beatles' "Beautiful State" started, and I was just elated to both not miss any of the concert and not have to wait for them to start, either... :) >lucky saddle! they took out the 'melody' and greatly intensified the >drone chords, made the effect very anticipatory...of course the whole >thing was already that way for me... One of the best parts about the show was the rear speakers that were set up: the sense of surround was incredible, and the drones sounded absolutely gigantic that way. However, I have mixed feelings about the Orb playing ambient sets at venues that don't have seating... the crowd always seems to get restless (as another poster mentioned, there seemed to be a disproportionate number of people pushing and shoving), and it becomes hard to enjoy the ambient tracks standing up. >blue room, something very friendly about all those interplaying shuffling >beats in the recording...this performance, they seemed to take all of >them and turn them each into the primary beat one at a time. very cool, >people around me were really grooving. The Blue Room was excellent. LX and Andy really seem to have mixed the old Adventures and u.f.orb stuff into truly powerful dance pieces. Majestic was a high point of the Riviera show for me, and rocked just as hard this time: I love the way they slam the beats, layer those crazy bongos on top of it and... uhh... garble it all up. I'd really love to have a copy of the way they do Majestic live on CD. >plateau...began in deep mindbending orbience, progressed into some cool >beats too. i think it could have used a hook sample to help people >relate, but maybe that was the point! some idiot in front of me thought >he was really cool and was cracking jokes and saying something about >getting the chems up there. i yelled fuck you. people around me smiled >and he shut up. ahhh... Personally, I thought that Plateau was one of the low points of the evening. The lack of a hook combined with the inferiority of the Aragon's sound system made the more subtle elements virtually unrecognizable, and so the track sank under it's own weight. >salt sucked. i enjoyed the visual ideas, but i'm a designer and the >execution sucked, and it seemed like the music was just straight, tied to >the visuals, wouldn't have been bad, but it was like the two weighed each >other down. plus maybe i'm wrong but it seemed the sync slipped anyway, >the lips were kissing the barcodes somewhere between the beat and the >offbeat...bleah. S.A.L.T. was -definately- the low point of the evening. LX or Andy, if you're listening, give this one up. You couldn't hear what Johnny was saying through the Aragon's sound system, the track doesn't really have any catchy hooks or beats that work in corcert, the track wasn't really any different from what's on the CD, and the pushing and shoving started again during the track. This is the only set list change I really would have liked: Towers of Dub in S.A.L.T.'s place would have brought down the house. >silence, then from the insane to the inane, everything else was pointless >after that so justin and i just smiled at each other, drove home and went >to bed. We made the mistake of sticking around for the Chems. What was truly depressing about the show is the way the crowd responded to the Chem's bland, rock-show atmosphere with utter abandon. We were out of there 5 tracks after they started. I really liked the way the Orb's had no opening act, just a DJ, for the previous shows, and I wish they could do that again in the future. C'mon, with one of the top 200 albums of all time, you'd think they'd be important enough to do it themselves, right? >by the way, the set was over two hours... This I have to doubt. There were only two "listen to LX spin disco faves while Andy swaps the DATs/ADATs" breaks, right? That would force it to be 120 minutes at most, wouldn't it? >thanks, orb. next time please don't tour with pop stars. love and respect. What he said. The Chicago show was hardly the disaster some people made it out to be: I had a real good time, and you can bet I'll be back in 1999. But the way that the show was promoted, and the resulting crowd, made it a less than stellar time. signed: ESCHATFISCHE, david h t t p : / /w w w . f i s c h e . c o m (esch@fische.com) -------------------------------------------------------- # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: FNORD4U@aol.com Subject: Re: the (orb) in chicago Date: 27 Apr 1997 23:33:31 -0400 (EDT) I've heard alot of people comment about the orb touring by itself or at least without popular groups like the chemical brothers. But face it, after 12 years, you would want to start selling some records too. And thats what playing with the chemical brothers is doing for them. It lets them get exposed to kids who are into rock and "pop" music but who have also obviosly shown that they like "electronic" music too. They go on first to get a chance at this and to give you a chance to hear them and get the hell out if you don't want to hear the break beat rock the chemical bros play. If you think about it the Orb breaking through to the mainstream is not only the next step in their evolution(or at least something they have to try) but also a chance for people who like truly experimental great music , but just don't know it yet. I for one think alex and andy deserve to sell as many fuckin records as they can, its rare that genius get rich and if any of them deserve it, its andy and alex. Thanx for listening to me ramble. Feedback is highly welcome. 8/\) # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: mysterio@ix.netcom.com Subject: Re: (orb) Artificial Intelligence Date: 26 Apr 1997 20:00:55 -0400 Conrad....

(full tracklisting?) 2. I am really interested in "Orbscure" and I had one thought: is "Plateau (of normality)" which you can find on "The Serious Road Trip" related to "Plateau (andy's dub)". The timing is the same so... 3. How long is Cocksville USA (from "Axiom Dub")? 4. What is "Unidentified Frequencies of Orb"? Who remixed that and how is it like? 5. Is Apollo XI related to Orb? 6. And finally, the most important to me: can someone TAPE for me some rare Orb tracks? I can't get them anyhow, so I am really interested in taping them. This is it.

I was so stoked about getting to see 2 of my favorite bands in one night. On the other hand, there were several people bitching and moaning about how the would have to endure the Orb in order to see the Chemical Brothers. They wished they had known that the Chemical brothers were coming on later so they could have avoided seeing the Orb altogether. One guy was saying how the Orb must really suck since he's never heard any song they did. All over the club people were making these types of comments. Little did they know that most of them would be converted. By the time the Orb got into full swing the crowd was going crazy. As far as I'm concerned, those who weren't converted did not deserve to be.

Myself and six guys whom I hardly know drove five hours from St. Louis, but I quickly realized that they had come to see the Chems, as did most of that annoying crowd. I tried desperately to find other listers (Sean--did you not wear the Pac Man shirt?) so that I could enjoy the Orb with other fans, but to no avail. It seemed like I was in there for five minutes when LX & Andy came out doing their thing. I swear I saw Andy outside in an alley before the doors opened, wearing a black jacket with "Orb" (a la oxbow lakes cover) on the left breast. I had to stick around for the Chems, but I wandered around restlessly after watching for a bit. I expected the Chems to scream "Are you ready to rock, Chicago?!" at any moment. It was good to see LX and Andy come out and do their thing without pandering to the crowd at all, although I enjoyed seeing Andy really get into what he was doing. The Chems were hard-core and annoying. Seeing the Orb was the only thing about the show or my road trip that I really enjoyed, but it was enough to make it worth it. To anyone considering going to a future show on this tour: it's worth it, but be prepared to deal with the crowd and Chems. Any word on the Lawrence show last night?

The security was reasonable, a little slack, but reasonable. However, I was more than wary of what might go on at the show, from the comments I'd heard on the list. I guess I wasn't too sure I'd like the show. I got seats up in the left-of-stage balcony in the first box, so I watched LX and Kris do their stuff. Does anyone know who the third guy was? Was that Andy Hughes? Couldn't tell -- I need a new prescription for my eyes :) The bass was, as usual, too intense. I mean, yeah, it was a "rave" (I'm hesitant to use that word), but the sound could have been potentially MUCH better. I couldn't hear all of the samples clearly from where I sat, and afterwords, I felt as though I had a helicopter in my freakin' chest! NOW FOR THE MUSIC: I was MOST impressed by the Orb. I was thrilled by their performance. Alex and Kris were in sync the whole night, and the audience who cared knew that. I heard many Orb fans screaming approval. I do note, however, that the majority of the people there were in attendance for the CBs. Yuck. LFC was my Fave for the night, SALT my least fave, 'cause they didn't mess with it -- it was right off the album. They played the bestest from every album, IMHO. I left after the Orb, didn't care to see the CBs. I think that was good anyway, since my ears were ringing hard-core by that time (even with plugs).

Well, the show started off in a funny way. The tickets said 8:00 the show starts, but the doors did not open until 9:45 or so. Which was fine w/me, 'cause I couldn't see the Orb going on at 8:00. LX came out and spinned for awhile, maybe 45 min or so. Alex comes out...crowd goes nuts....then some of the most AMAZING songs/djing I've ever heard comes out. My favorite far and away was Blue Room. Of course they did Fluffy Little Clouds for the encore. Alot of people rip on that song but I'm still not tired of it. What amazed me most seeing them live was the danceability. I've listened to Live 93 tons of times, but was nothing like what I heard and saw in Lawrence. I loved the video setup, which was somewhat pyramid looking, similar to photos on other tours I have seen before. All in all....WOW. I'm still reeling from the experience. If anyone has a boot of this current tour they'd like to trade for or maybe I'll just buy a copy, that would be appreciated. I love the Chem Bros. too, but after all the messages I've read, and heard through the grapevine, I think we got the better end of the deal by having only the Orb play in Lawrence. Wow!

" WHy does she always act like such a baby, why doesn't she just grow up?" She's not going to grow up as long as she thinks the only talent she posess's is in her looks and her pussy.

Pamela DeBarge actually did well and she didn't do much. All her self-esteems in her pussy right now. Even if she's the picture of ladyhood it's just to keep up her self -esteem. She's worried.

Stunning looks and brillant dialogue.Stop the bullshit, make her go on her own for a year and get direction, and then if you want to fuck her silly, be my guest. But let her find her own way first.

A friend of my gave me a copy of The Visitor yesterday. Just gave it to me!!! I like it alot, highly suggest you pick it up if you see it. The Solaris Mix of *Towers* blew my mind. Although the alien on the back cover looks suspiously like Matt Johnson. Oh yeah, while we're dropping names: Mahatmus Ghandi and I go way way back. Didn't have to worry about any girlfriends or sudden knife attacks and his mellowness prefigures LX's vibe by AT LEAST sixty years. Then there's CG Jung. I remember chilling with him at his lakeside home in Zurich one day, and from nowhere he busts out a spliff the size of David Spade and torches it. Next thing you know, Freud shows up with an eightball. Carl or I didn't touch it, but Ziggy huffed it up like so much teenage pussy, right? We talked well into the night about the recently passed age of consent laws for dream characters in relation to psychosis patients who create them. Carl seem to think the only way around the problem was to let the dreamer decide for themselves what consenting age is, as most dream characters are ageless. The Zigster opted for the opposite saying that dream contents want to be fucked into understanding. At least his mum's did any way. I sat back and soaked it all in. I stood up to look for a roach clip,(David's head is small, you know) when the discussion violently turned to the meaningingfulness of meaningful coincidences vs. the meaningfulness of coincidental meaninginglessness. I stood in Carl's foray for several minutes staring at a painting of Miester Eckhart and wondered if he ever encountered sexual tension with his female apprentice. I figured if he did it was probaly due to the fumes of the *aqua permanenes* Lastly I wanted to tell the story of the day God and I sat down to talk about the age of consent laws between angels of people who died in their teens and and the angels of people who died in their thirties. He seemed to feel that angels were everywhere and were in harmony with all the known Universe. To make a firm decision about consent would undermine the duty of angels to visit a person in their dreams in order to help in the process of individuation. Whether they take the guise of the Bodhisattvas, or of an impression of Jesus on a piece of toast, he felt the importance lies in the fact that we need to recognize them, and change our pride filled ways accordingly. As I sat on my cloud and watched Kurt Cobain start an angel's robe on fire, I began to think about the meaninginglessness of throwing stones. I mean I know that I have been in relationships that weren't the best for me, and no one could dissuade me. I did however figure it out in my own time and made the necessary corrections. I thought about how I have survived incest and whether or not I would date someone who was not on the same emotional and mental level as I and decided in my own case I could not, because of what my father had done to me. Throughout, the focus remained on MYSELF! For the life of me I can't figure out what attending concerts at age 13 has to do with consentual relationships, nor do I care. As Mike Scott once told me in a pub, "I've got a madman of my own to contend with!" As I sat on my cloud floating over my parent's home, I heard the odd combination of hand cymbals and someone hawking a loogie. I turned around to see Sid Vicious and Siddartha Guatama approaching me. Sid was fresh from his most recent gig at the Shadow club in Jupiter's IO district. The Buddah hooked up with him on his return from astral projecting himself into Bob Marley's dreadlocks. I looked up at both of them and said, "Hey fellas, what's up?" A peacful smile broke over the Buddah's face. He replied, " We were on our way to a pot party at Chirst's place and wanted to know if you could teach us how to make a pan of brownies." "Sure I will, on one condition." Sid snorted, "Wotissit, you right cunt!" I looked around me and watched the clouds pass by. I knew Rikki would love it here. I looked below me and watched my parent's home become a tiny dot on the horizon. I drew the sweet celestial air into my lungs and slowly exhaled it into Sid's face. Tiny stars left my mouth and circled his face. A few on them landed on the lotus the Buddah carried in his hand. I continued, "My one condition is that I while I am making them, that one of you gets on the horn with Jesus and finds out whether it is an all ages party" OM # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. # Postings must go to orb@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Latest Orb info: http://www.theorb.com/orbulletins.html -- look here first! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Mark Schieldrop Subject: (orb) Press Pass / Interview?
