In addition to those sources ( some of which you can confirm with a Deja News search, others in the hyperreal archives for the IDM and Ambient lists), I heard John Peel introduce Autechre that way on his radio show. Remember, these guys are British. They spell "center" as "centre" but pronounce the second syllable the same way we do. According to numerous sources, the name was supposedly generated by the same computer program Ae uses to "find" the odd titles so many of their tracks bear.

For someone who is supposed to be "the new big thing in electronica" he sure plays a lot of non-electronic music. I do not think that any song that was played was remotely electronic.

From now on, Fatboy Slim is no longer a part of electronic music in my books. I still pronounce it Aw-TEK-ru despite what you people say. I'm sure that Sean and Rob won't mind. Oh that reminds me, I played LP5 in my stagecraft class today hoping to annoy some people who listen to non-electronic music, and I got the reverse reaction, they liked it.

This > might as well go in the same direction as an earlier Crystal Method > debate (being sold out). I guess they start to suck once the world > notices them, huh? Heh, few things. A) Spinning Beastie Boys or Prince successfully, as you call it, is easier than Monica Lewinsky. B) Crystal Method is alot better than FatBoy Slim, don't relate the two. C) FatBoy Slim is simply a caterer to "electronica"(shitty ass wannabe MTV developed word which should not exist), thus not placing him in any real electronic genre (D&B,Jungle,Trance,IDM, etc.) therefore placing him in a sort of limbo. This limbo is very poor and anyone caught in it in the past has sucked just as Fatboy Slim does. It's not that mixing styles is bad it's just that when your music simply reflects a false group of followers, the real listeners aren't gonna enjoy it.

First I was curious as to the acquisition of MP3s, and having gotten the Hotline Client Server Tracker etc., I was hoping someone out there had the server name I'm after. It was posted here a month or two ago, something like 'tracked.dyn.ml.org'. Let me know so I can start seeing what's out there in the wonderful world of illegal music media. Second, hopefully some Warp-heads can shed light on what Squarepusher and Nightmares on Wax are like. Heard both these name with a lot of frequency, so I was hoping maybe to get advice on which lp should be my first buy. And watching AMP this Sunday after a short absence (yes I watch MTV, shame on me), I noticed they're now using clips from Modulations as interstitial music. Where can I see or get my hands on a copy of this film? Is it anywhere on the net as an mpeg? I'm dying to see what else they're up to. Also, what's the club scene like in Philly? I already heard the names Fluid and Evolution, but could someone tell me more? I get to drive soon, so watch out :))))) Does anyone have the u-Ziq/Aphex album Expert Knob Twiddlers, and how is it? Also, anybody (Loopz?) know if the UK releases of Style and Middle of Nowhere will co-incide with the US releases, or will there be a tortorous delay between the two? And finally, Digger, your Chime promo kicks arse! Where exactly did you (or the gift-giver) get it from?

Let me know so I can start >seeing what's out there in the wonderful world of illegal music media. now, harrasing the mp3 sites for a very long time, I can assure you you're never gonna get anywhere with any kinds of programs that connect to w3ird servers. Just get on Altavista or any mp3 search engine and start diggin' for normal mp3 files. Another way is hangin' or IRC and meeting (& trying to be nice to) people that listen to your kinds of music. This can often result in good trades, either via ftp sites, icq or even email. There's lots of good electronic music lying around nowdays, and even though i'm searching only for drum & bass, i always get across some cool stuff I would have died for some time ago. for example, i was trying to find some "tough at the top" remixes (i'd probabbly trade everything i've got for 'em :-)) and i came across Banco De Gaia's Last Train To Lhasa CD #3. Never ever before did I think I'd be able to hear that, yet alone own it :) anyway, i've strayed a bit. good luck in your quest Kel. :) Daniel ::::::::::::::::: "you know...ladies & gentlemen...it's time...to present to you... something STRONG" - ---8<------------------------ [ http://www.monitor.hr , http://www.monitor.hr/ratnici/ ] [ http://www.seven.hr/leqash/mp3/ ] # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orbital" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orbital@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Orbital discography: http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?orbital ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Oct 1998 18:55:22 +0100 From: Jon Green Subject: Re: (orbital) More Offtopic-ness At 20:08 20/10/98 -0400, Kel wrote: > >hopefully some Warp-heads can shed light on what Nightmares on Wax are like.

Hey all, I just stumbled upon an American cd sales company called cdworld (at cdworld.com, of course). I found a couple items of interest. First of all was the "Pi" soundtrack, which anyone not living near a large city may not even know existed. For all new orbital-headz, or people who need more variety, you may want to pick this up because it does have quite an assortment and avoids some of the more crappy techno that is usually paired up on a soundtrack (although I don't know of all of the artists): 1 Pi (Symbol)r2 MANSELL*CLENT 2 P.E.T.R.O.L. ORBITAL 3 Kalpol Intro AUTECHRE 4 Bucephalus Bouncing Ball APHEX TWIN 5 Watching Windows SIZE*RONNIE 6 Angel ASSIVE ATTACK 7 We Got The Gun MANSELL*CLINT 8 No Man's Land HOLMES*DAVID 9 Anthem GUS*GUS 10 Drippy BANCO DE GAIA 11 Third From The Sun PSILONAUT 12 A Low Frequency Inversion Field SPACETIME CONTINUUM 13 2Pi (Symbol)r MASELL*CLINT There's also something called Future Funk 2 that's being released in England in December of 1999. It has a pretty good mix. My final question: On this page they show that The Box single was released in England on October 15, 1998 (and I don't think it's a misprint since it says new release and such). Anybody from over that way know of this. Was there a re-release or any changes to the single? Later.
