Anyway, that's MY excuse for being a fan . It's also my excuse for laying out major cash for the 10 CD box set of 'Steve Reich - Works' [via Nonesuch] (which contains some excellent ambient tones, BTW). Some Orb fans might not be aware that Steve is the source of the superb jangly guitar-like sample for LFC. In fact, it's on disk 8, if you ever need to know. Played by a guy called Pat Metheny, it was recorded in 1987 and is known as Electric Counterpoint. The whole piece is just under 15 min long. Reich knew full well that the piece had been sampled and The Orb who, apparently, never sought permission - well, you were more likely to get away with it in those days. Reich doesn't mind, though. An attitude to sampling which I admire. Well, it got a sale from me so it was a good decision I reckon! Anyway, for what all the above's worth, thought you might like to know. - -- Paul Rigby [Editor - Record Mart & Buyer] # 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, 08 Feb 1999 15:14:46 PST From: "E O" Subject: Re: (orb) Autechre...

Sorry for continuing an off-topic subject, but why don't you try (if you don't read it already) the IDM digest at Hyperreal? Lots of Autechre/Gescom content, as well as Fat Cat, Boards of Canada, Bola, Skam, Chocolate Industries, Orbital, Coldcut, Ninja Tune, Chain Reaction and lots of other cool shit. There was a review of the Autechre gig in Manchester last week on the web. Apparently throughout the entire (long) gig about 2 or 3 minutes could be described as "song like" - I'm guessing that they improvise the majority of the stuff there and then.

And I got one question: there's a rare promo vinyl of Reich tracks. I recently recorded a song by coldcut from the album "Reich Remixed" (1999). The song's called "music for 18 musicians". Is it true that this promo vinyl will soon be released on cd? Will it be limited? Where will it be sold? Sorry for bringing up an off-topic again but the list is such a grand knowledge base!

I've def. seen it on CD... as for coldcut, they would have to do that one, after releasing "music for no musicians" on their latest album! and for all orb lovers, track down and watch "an electronic odyssey: the Theremin story" because it is truly amazing... our wonderful SBS TV channel showed it on sunday.... see and hear what inspired a whole century of artists, including the orb themselves :-) cheers all :) KL # 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: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 09:10:34 +0000 From: Lee Subject: (orb) Oxbow Midi file One more thing about the midi file, something I completely overlooked which my mate, Chris, had a go at me about, please don't infringe on his work, he worked hard on it and assuming you were good people I sent it, woops, anyway, if any of you guys have an oppinion on it or like it, then please email Chris at: harrison.cutler@talk21.com Okay everyone?

I suggest you remove them from the ftp. Using Yahoo shop, I found that http://www.towerrecords.com sells Textures for 24.99 USD and Amazon.com sells the Mixmag Lx mix (with the excellent Mixmaster Morris mix) for 28.49 USD. So you can find it on the net. I dont want to start another war, but these tracks should be removed from the new OAA.
