I understand the point of not putting stuff on the archive that is in print, but something that nobody without money burning holes in his pocket can buy?

Just because I have a CDR of Orbscure tracks doesn't mean that I'm not still trying like hell to get a real one- just like getting these mp3s doesn't mean that people are gonna stop looking for real Aubrey Mixes CDs.

My take on this OAA thing is... If the Orb says it's cool, then it's cool. I sympathize for anyone who feels ripped off for spending $$$$$ on Aubrey Mixes, but the real cd beats the pants off of mp3s anyday. I found mine about a year& a half ago in Madison for $8.00 used(SCORE!). In a simular vane, I have a cdr of the 2nd disk of Assassin. I'm glad I have it, so I can enjoy the music. But if I find an original, I'll buy it in an instant! Gavin (let's see if this comes back from Michael Kennedy) _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I This is true of MP3 most of the time anyway. Esp. with stuff like the Orb where if it isn't recorded at some obscene bitrate, you're going to lose the little details that make the songs so neat. For example, a friend of mine tried to encode some of my goa trance. He figured it would compress really well, etc. etc. etc. Much to his dissapointment, it sounded terrible. Even at a moderately high bitrate, (160) he lost a lot of the higher frequencies and some of the more subtle sounds that gave the tracks a sort of swirly feel to them. Personally, I like encoding some of my stuff to take to work since I can fit a few CD's worth of songs onto one CD and not feel bad if it gets scratched, lost, damaged, etc. (esp. my Orb stuff) But the lack of consistancy in encoders and other people encoding tracks makes MP3 not nearly the threat to the music industry as I think some believe.

So you think that some guy hanging around the studio just copied the DAT and added that track to the bootleg? Or possibly even someone close to one of the band members? Wow, that really puts things into perspective. I think I can understand more now why artists hate bootleggers. Then again, I think it's the artists obligation to release ALL material as soon as it's made, in order to maximize capitolization and fan happyness. Plus as we all know, artists exist ONLY to please their adoring and new-material-desiring fans. :) :) :) # 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. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 11:25:27 -0400 (EDT) From: fuzzbox@world.std.com (Bart Savagewoofer) Subject: (orb) today's addition..

Certainly the Falconer. NOW THAT'S an album that rarely is mentioned here. The Falconer CD. That album kicks ass. It is real rare??? ANYONE?? I pretty sure it only came out in Germany. Talk about a guy that needs to pop up again. I don't think he's friends with LX and crew anymore. His album really shows where the Orb started their sound. I'm quite sure LX learned a lot about "sounds", in general, working with Andy Falconer. It's so apparent when you listen to the first Orb Peel Session and this record. Also the work he did on one of my personal fav's, the version of "Into the Fourth Dimension" on A.B.T.U. Hooray for Andy! Michael Skidoo Thomas "out" P.S. ...and the Jam on the Mutha is great too. Especially if you dislike the Eagles as much as I do. Sorry if that offends, but talk about a band that sold out. 5 studio records, 4 live ones, and that's not including the two greatest hits. I have a friend that has the Orb 12" of Hotel California. I don't know if it's in good shape, I only heard it once. It's some good mixes too. If it is in good condition, I could most likely borrow it, Mpeg3 it, and send it to the OAA. :o) # 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. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 19:08:42 +0100 From: CC701410 Subject: RE: (orb) today's addition..FALCONER!!!!!!!!

Mmm, how conveniently you edit out the part where I point out that both tracks in question were commercially released (on LX's MixMag session) BEFORE ever turning up on bootleg. :-) But the rest of your point is well taken; the bootleg release of genuinely- unreleased material may very well involve the breach of someone's trust. - -- 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. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 14 Apr 1999 21:20:20 -0600 From: Lazlo Nibble Subject: Re: (orb) today's addition..FALCONER!!!!!!!!

I want to upload the Big Audio Dynamite remix... i knew that we were running a bit low on hard drive space on mocker.org, so i regretfully inform people that the person donating the server (mocker himself) made the topic on #theorb (EFnet IRC channel) : "All uploads have been stopped until another HD can be put in mocker.org.." i haven't been able to get a more elaborated explanation; i don't know if another HD will be put in, or if it will be sometime in the distant future. in any case, i assume that the stuff there now should stay there... i remind you again, the OAA is now anonymous access @ ftp.mocker.org (no login/password) thanks, and enjoy the things that are there :) sergio. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Get Your Own Free Pop or Web Based Email and a 10MB Web Site for FREE at: http://www.nettaxi.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. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 01:21:50 -0400 (EDT) From: "Benjamin L.

It was still never released in its entirety on any ORB album. :) > But the rest of your point is well taken; the bootleg release of genuinely- > unreleased material may very well involve the breach of someone's trust. Well, if that happened to me, I'd just release the material as soon as the bootleg came out so that nobody would buy the bootleg anyways! :) # 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. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 12:28:17 +0100 From: CC701410 Subject: RE: (orb) today's addition..FALCONER!!!!!!!! > Someone got $50 for it on eBay recently -- take that however you = want. :-) >=20 Bloody hell.

This past weekend we fired up the ship and ventured further into the ultraworld then I had ever been before. It was quite a journey and for a while there I wasn't sure we would make it back but the cool headedness and excellent navigational skills of our captain made sure that all members of the crew would return unscathed. About half way through the mission, we where about as deep as we were going to go before turning back, I noticed, from my command post in the cockpit, a bright shimmering light off in the distance. I pointed this out to the captain who immediately set a direct course for the unknown presence. This shocked the members of the crew, me included, as we where already 5 hours into the journey and we didn't have enough fuel for more than a 10 hour flight. The closer we got to the object the brighter and larger the object became until the cockpit was filled with its shimmering light. Suddenly all systems began to overheat. Smoke and flames rose from our navigational systems prompting our captain to dampen the fire with the shirt off his back. The closer we got to the object a voice of an alien nature could be heard. I am not sure what was being said but something along the lines of "were happy to be with you "? As we flew through the object It appeared as a rain shower of broken glass reflecting the brightest light you have ever seen. All members of the crew stood in awe of this unknown presence. I looked down at our now smoldering navigational systems and tried to decipher what part of the ultraworld we where in. The gauges read as follows: ultraworld sector = pomme fritz, orbit = 5. A loud voice boomed through our headsets repeating the words "its just the sun, its just the sun" and at that exact moment my body was filled with an indescribable warmth and calm that stayed with me through the remainder of the journey home. My question to you orbsters is what did I encounter that night and who's voice was it. Is there a living entity in the ultraworld? So many questions returned with me that night. thanks t # 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. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Apr 1999 10:41:27 -0500 From: Chris Kloehr Subject: RE: (orb) curious to know > The gauges read as follows: ultraworld sector = pomme fritz, orbit = 5.

The only entity *I* know of is a huge ever growing pulsating brain and the voice was probably the one in your head... # 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. ------------------------------ End of orb-digest V2 #189 *************************
