If I had one point I was trying to make, it would be there is a qualitative difference between the earlier and later stuff that allows me to toss Ultraworld and UFOrb into one bucket, and Pomme and Orbus into another ( singles, re-mixes, live, and peel sessions aside ). Those "easy relationship with both music and sound" are very appealing and placid; however the excessive and traditionally unrelated sonic layers of Orbus are extremely monotonous to me. I guess Ultra-UFOrb represents a goof balance of ambiance and musical direction.

Ohh... Yes... This is a great album...! It's tough setting it up to listen to, but once you get it going... It's pretty damn amazing. I really like the song about the Dying vegtables looking for fresh soil... That song is so great. There's this really cool keyboard part that surrounds you, and suddenly out of one stereo comes this crazy drum solo.. And eventually grows into all the stereos... And some of the songs where he sings on all the discs, is really cool and spine tingling. Because the discs will be slightly out of sync, it sounds like his voice is swimming around you... kinda like a spirit... Great to listen to LOUD!!!! Unfortunately I don't listen to it too much because it's a whole deal to set up.. and you should be with one or more people when listening to it. Maybe one day the orb would do an experiment similar to this. What I'd like to see is have a bunch of tracks but could be played in any order. Such as One time maybe i can Listen to Track 1 on CD one, Track 5 on CD 2, Track 3 on CD 3.. ect... and then change them around next time you listen to it.. or put on all the CD players on random...

Thanks Rich. You don't know how much this means to me. I've worked really hard to make sure it was of the best quality possible. Even though the results are great, I still think there was so much more that could have been done. But due to the amount of time it was taking, and Money (not to mention all the people wondering if it will ever come out), I had to leave it with what it is now. Which In no way i believe is short of professional. For you who are interested to obtain a copy please e-mail me. Or for you Chicagoans, you can pick it up at the following record stores. Reckless Records Armaggedon's Evil Clown And please.. Support the musicians who are primarily responsible for such a great album to exsist.

Hi, actually PRESENT is not that new... It was released back in 1996. I have the CD version of the album (AMB 6943 CD) made in Austria. Well, I don't like "ambient" releases on vinyl, because every time you lie down on the floor and relax it makes *KrzzzzTonKkk* and you have to turn the record hehehe... SUN ELECTRIC releases are also hard to find here in Germany, although SE is a german project and they are located in Berlin hehehe... Strange! But now let's talk about the album... Maybe it's not their best album (I prefer Kitchen) but it's worth buying for sure. It's more instrumental than The ORB because they don't use that much samples but it's very trippy. But Alex rulz!

Whoa! you're evaluating the orb in terms of music theory? granted, traditional harmonies are something they do, but dude, that's not the half of it. what keeps me coming back to the orb and good dub is the easy relationship with both music and sound. challenge: record any sound. any at all. from radio, your body, household appliances...listen to it a couple times...now think, would this fit in an orb track? if you're answer's not yes, think again. the genius isn't a songwriting type of mindset at all, it's way easier than that. (these guys are potheads, at least lx...would you really expect anything more than three chords?) i could fill pages trying to point at what the orb is (as if i knew), but i don't think conventional, or even classical, songwriting is something they're up to (selected moments aside...). have i missed your point? fun things to think about. g'bye orbies. ryan # 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! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 10:39:03 +0100 From: "Marcolphus" Subject: (orb) Passing of Time (film mix) How is it like?

I know what you mean we could do with another visit to Ultraworld. Steve Damn right! Easily my favourite Orb record by a long way.

It's fairly rare in that it's difficult to find just at any store, but if you check the web, I'm sure you'll find many copies. In my opinion, only the oobe sounds very good. I like the album versions of the Orbus stuff better and no fun sucks. _________________________________________________________ Joseph Jun Graduate Student Deptartment of Physics, Univ. of Ill.

I listen to all my music in full surround...but how many of you with surround sound use your center channel? I listen with it on but some people like it off or just really quiet...I thought the center chan was for movies only, but some electronic stuff sounds super with it on. Thoughts??
