As a very long time Orb lsitener I have started to fall in love with the sounds of old dub. I was wondering if someone could recomend 5-10 must have dub albums. I know that LX msut be a fan of Lee Perry, Mad professor and King Tubby because he samples and plays them. I have also really like a lot of the Horace Andy I have heard. There are a lot of records and I have no concrete starting point so an essential listening list would be cool. Also, there must be somewhere on the net to get ahold of these records dirt cheap as they are failry old and were at one point in relatively wide print. cheers, Danjel # 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: Mon, 25 May 1998 20:20:11 -0400 From: Danjel van Tijn <6tdv@qlink.queensu.ca> Subject: (orb) the perfect dub This I guess is in continuation to my last message. i don't have any friends who listen to dub so I only know what I have read or stumbled across. I am fairly picky about the dub I like and I have been unable to find the right group. I am looking for well produced, not cheezy, LOTS of echo, good patoi (sp?) singing/samples, and not necessarily always glued to the rigid dub reggae formula. I have found Zion Train can be like this, also I heard an amazing song by the New Age Steppers called "Fade Away" (features the singer from the punk group "the Slits"). Anyone have some good recomendations? cheers, Danjel # 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: Mon, 25 May 1998 21:05:11 -0400 (EDT) From: Anthony Bryan Subject: Re: (orb) Old dub record recomendations (and where to find cheap?) > I know that LX msut be a fan of Lee Perry, Mad professor and King Tubby I hesitated to buy alot of dub stuff cos most of what I heard was kinda on the low end. when I worked at a record store, I ordered a buch to try them out & didn't find anything very good. I spose you have to know the best albums b these people or you end up w/ suck. but I did get the 3cd set for Lee Perry, which came out about a year or so ago. its a compilation of his stuff & the whole thing seems quality, interesting material. great song about putting on an iron shirt too. anyways, I really liked this but listen 1st of course. antho # 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: Mon, 25 May 98 23:51:56 -0500 From: nhetrick Subject: (orb) Nico & Microsoft?

Skip if you don't care. I'm Andrew Janke, a college student (CS/Math major) at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, OK, USA. I've been listening to Orb for several years, along with many other ambient and techno/dance/electronic groups. I have been a DJ for a gothic/industrial club, although I no longer have time for it. This list first came to my notice a couple weeks ago while I was doing a search for a CD I needed. I'm desperately trying to pick up a copy of CD#1 of the 2cd European Toxygene single (and willing to pay well for it if someone on this list has one they want to get rid of). At any rate, since I'm a great fan of the Orb, I decided to join on to the list. Orb-related: I have seen bootlegged copies of the Orb Patterns and Textures video floating around here. Does anyone know if there was ever a legitimate release to NTSC?

Hello, I was listening to the second Peel Sessions last night and really paid attention to it for the first time. I suddenly noticed that the second track "NO FUN" was, well, rock! Not that I have a problem with rock, it's just that I wasn't expecting it on an Orb single. =) Does anyone have the scoop on that particular song?
