Dubby basslines and crazy guitar effects, and one incedilbe drummer... Snares galore... Mouse on Mars... This electronic act has everything going for them.... New style, cool and quirky sounds...

I asked who sang this and the guy showed me the cover of a Reggae CD "The best of Johnny Osbourne". * In the last issue of Time Out, page 201, there's an offer for a cheap lunch at Beach Blanket Babylon ! (MBM remix) Orb is everywhere... And another thing IMHO: Don't do mpeg 3 CDs of Orb ! I know many stuffs from them are really hard to find, but the pleasure is also to try to find them ! I knew there was a God when I found "Aubrey mixes" in Tokyo ! Thanks to Smiley and my huntings, I found most of their back catalogs and remixes. I'm totally against the Boot CDs and self CDs unless they are live materials unreleased. If I find in Paris Orb stuff that I already have, I'll let you know. Orb should have a fan club / mail order where it could be possible to have old stuff. BTW, I tried to find the Dollshead remix, but I only found a vinyl of the track without the Orb remix.

The only problem comes from the fact that I have a HI-FI. What the hell is the use in spending a thousand pound to get a serious music system and then play your CDs through your sound card - the only possible way to do it is to get your PC to produce a digital output - but it would only be a resampled version of an analogue compression technique from a digital original - you would lose soooo much! Having said that, if you filled it with stuff that you most likely could never buy in the shops, then it would be good until you managed to track down the originals! :) Ronan FitzGerald - ---------------------------- u9350276@queens-belfast.ac.uk, Belfast, N.

How could I forget Yello??? They are far better than the Art of Noise, but essentially in the same genre.... And I must agree with the indivi- dual who mentioned Morcheeba.... "Who Can You Trust?" (I think that's the name of the song) is an eight-minute long (I think) instrumental, which reminds me of total stoner music, circa 1978.... Mazzy Star is pretty great, too. What I've heard from the Dread Zone (is that called trip hop?) is friggin' amazing--"The Good, the Bad, and the Dread" features lots of cool samples from Sergio Leone movies, with music samples from Ennio Morricone.... Oh! And the soundtrack to Twin Peaks.... Can't forget that!!! :) Anyone heard the new Deep Forest single?

LX mentioned in Trance Europe Express 1 booklet his all time favorite records. His choices were Bagdad Cafe OST, Brian Eno Apollo , etc... and Cluster. Although I agree with him about Apollo (I love when he mixes "Always Returning"), I was disappointed with the Cluster album. Reminds me of Tangerine Dream vs Eno.

LBJ being Lyndon B Johnson and Tricky Dick = Richard Nixon Anyway, my local record shop foned me yesterday, knowing that I'm an Orb fan, and said he had put aside a CD for me, produced by Bill Laswell, remixed by the Orb, with some kind of Indian meditation music on some vague (French?) label. I'm gonna pick it up tomorrow, but am really wondering what it could be.

Blue Room Released, IMHO, throws down!!!! =)))) some of the most refined music (aside from Orb) then of course i'm a sucker for psychedelic trance...anyone else share this interest? Some of my favorite psychedelic trance projects are...Astral Projection, MFG, Hallucinogen, T.I.P. (a.k.a. the infinity project), Spacetribe, Slinky Wizard, anything on Flying Rhino, Juno Reactor, and so many more. Some other music i listen to aside from the Orb ( i listen to a lot of the Orb, however =): most good reggae (original, not pop. Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Black Uhuru, Steel Pulse, etc. etc.), Future Sound of London (my favorite being Lifeforms), all Dub, lots of different varieties of ambient music, a lot of psychedelic trance (a.k.a. *goa trance*), Pink Floyd, Beatles, experimental, Young American Primative, Lucky People Centre, and tons more ambient on top of that. love and light, ~*eschaton*~ # 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! ------------------------------ End of orb-digest V2 #28 ************************
