I agree totally there. In England the dance scene is governed by such acts as EG. Sash!, Aqua, Mr President and all that bollocks. To me Orbital et al, would be best suited to the Techno label thats tends to be associated with it over here in blighty. I am not saying that this stuff is talentless, to make any form of music requires some sort of talent, but to me is does nothing (barr the odd track), but leaves me cold (emotionally). For some reason, I associate this scene with 12 year olds because when you go into the clubs it just seems to be the little scallys that are hopping around the dance floor when this stuff is on. For some reason (don't know why) the image of an Orbital, or Underworld fan (for instance) conjures up the image of someone a bit more mature??? Perhaps this due to that a lot of people get introduced to this form of music whilst at University, anyone agree on that one, or have any suggestions of there own????

When I was at Manchester Uni, there was lots of places there that played it, and because a lot of people that I knew were into it, I got gradually drawn in. Actually, I may thank the band called 'KILLING JOKE' (any one else heard of them) for my introduction largely because the set of singles that were released from the PANDEMONIUM CD had remixes on them done by the likes of the Man with No name and Dragonfly. I don't know about where anyone else lives there is a lack of clubs that play techno as opposed to the shit 'conveyor belt' style dance music.

We'll have to give that a little more though *COUGH*outhere*COUGH*, but generally I agree. I think that people who like Orbital appreciate music at a different level. Music has become it's own monster, and has been almost totally seperated from the world of art. It's groups like Orbital, Autechre, and the like that make _music_, not just a chorus that's fun to sing along with. I think what we're seeing is a kind of neo-clasiccal period emerging. Hopefully with the rise of such 'joint' groups such as the Prodigy and the Chems, we'll see a lot more people discover their older, non-vocal works and hence see the appreciation of music itself grow. > Perhaps this due to that a lot of people get introduced to this form of > music whilst at University, anyone agree on that one, or have any > suggestions of there own????

This is so true, because it's a question of respect for others, not of what you enjoy doing. To use yet another bad example, how many guys do you see wanking in public?

Actually, a whistle (say a Fox40) can do about as much damage to your hearing as a fog horn, but seeing as we're at a concert, I'll assume we don't care ;) What I think is ludicrous is that someone can be so bloody selfish as to not give a toss about the other 98% of the people attending. Where my inability lies is in the inability to lower myself to the level of an unmannered, selfish, rude, ignorant punk who's only form of expression is blowing his/her lungs out on a whistle.I am however, rather light on the subject. I try to spread my message outside of the concert setting, to avoid confrontations like this where both of our experiences would be ruined. > >The hell with what you think! > > It's TO hell with what you think. And if you're going to adopt that > immature of an attitude with me, I think I'll say the same with you. My bad. I have to come clean on this one, it was a bit of a typo... "The hell with what you like!" is how it should have read. Then, it would have made a little more sence.

Exactly, it's not so much the music I hate but the bad rap that other talented groups get (Orbital, et al) when Aqua and those other "whiny girl and a 808" groups get 24.2 hours of play a day on radio and TV. Ouch, quite the run-on, but I guess that's why I'm not taking english ;) - -- If a synchronized swimmer starts to drown, does the partner have to drown too?

Not to get involved in this war, because I do want to stay out, but I had to say one thing. Could you imagine a concert where no one made any noise? Imagine your at an Orbital concert and after the brothers play a beautiful set of Out There Somewhere to Halcyon to Lush 3 or whatever, no one made any noise or showed any appreciation for the music. The crowd was silent through out the entire performance and at the end. Do you think that the brothers will feel welcomed? Do you think that they would really feel like playing on? The people that do make noise, in whatever way, seem to be trying to show their appreciation for the music. Just remember that you are seeing the concert with many other people with many different oppinions.. Sure the whistles are annoying, but it's what someone else wants to do. You are free do what you want to do, so why restrict someone from being who they are? Instead of paying attention to the whistles, pay attention to what you are there to listen to: the music. When Ilisten to live cd's that have whistles in them, I hardly notice them, as with all the crowd noise. I get so wound up in the music that the rest of the noise is oblivious to me. Point of all of this: Don't restrict freedom. just my thought on this pathetic topic. cya morpheus # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orbital" in the message. # Postings must go to orbital@xmission.com -- replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 09 Mar 1998 10:32:49 PST From: "Mehul Parekh" Subject: Re: (orbital) This fucked up whistle war. >Not to get involved in this war, because I do want to stay out, but I had to >say one thing.

Do you have any idea what that would do? If any of you would go to the p.e.t.r.ol. page with that shockwave concert, you can also find a interview with Orbital. You have to understand that audience participation gives the artists an idea about how they are doing. Orbital, as great as they are, are not mind-readers. If we all stood like mutes when we went to watch them play, they might take off or something. So, yes, whistling, etc. can be annoying, but if you are so bothered, move on. And, people, Orbital aint coming to town for a while, so relax. Anyway, heres a question to take your mind off whistling and onto the show. If Orbital plays during the day, how is their light show affected? I mean, someone said recently that Orbital projects a UFO flying around or something, but if it is broad daylight, how do they do it? Thanks.
