Except for the first minute (which is a tad ambient) the piece is pretty straightforward Goa. It doesn't really sound like the Orb, more like Hallucinogen. So, I wondered if this may be an Orb remix of a Hallucinogen song (rather than vice versa). There was no info in Lazlo's discog about it so I'm posting this question to the list. This pal of mine just got it off Napster so he has no idea what this is. Does anyone here know what this could be about? thanks, Volker. - -- - -= Info, song-snippets, CD orders: http://www.nogacity.de/oddspot - -= Full songs: http://www.mp3.de/home/oddjob - -= Full songs: http://www.besonic.com/User/0,1391,g0r0l1t0o0i42757,00.html - -= Email: mailto:oddjob@nogacity.de - -= Email: mailto:tripp@uni-muenster.de # 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: Thu, 20 Apr 2000 05:04:18 -0400 (EDT) From: Chain Reaction Subject: (orb) Bytesize Nuns track... Dear All, I was wondering if someone could provide me with a full-length version of Codpiece (Trouser Torpedo Mix) by ByTesize Nuns (cd or mp3). It's the first track on the Darren Emerson disc of Textures, and apparently it was cowritten by LX. Does anyone have more info on this, was this a single-track project or are there more tracks...? As always, many thanx in advance, Steph...

Wow ... everyone's been picking my least favorite Orb remixes! =) I'll have to go back and listen to those with new ears. Here's my standard picks: Suzuki "Satellite Serenade" (trans asian express) - -- Just for the opening David Ambientborough bit alone ... incredibly spacious. Overall simple & effective. Mike Oldfield "Sentinel" (nobel prize mix) - -- Some intricate layering and development going on here ... builds up to an edgy climax but maintains a deep, subliminal vibe. I would mention the Material "Mantra" remix, but I'm kind of burned out on it, actually. Runners-up are Front 242 "Rhythm of Time" (victor the cleaner) and Depeche Mode "Happiest Girl" (pulsating orbital vocal mix) Both are quite unusual-sounding for the Orb, and very chunky and, I daresay, spunky. And favorite Orb-related remixes: Miranda Sex Garden "Gush Forth My Tears" (interest at source mix) by Thrash - -- Great goth-club dance track. ;) Fortran 5 "Love Baby" (carniverous marine mammal with short limbs) by Thrash - -- Oof ... that groove ... Killing Joke "Requiem" (floating leaf always reaches the sea dub mix) by Thrash & Greg Hunter - -- Greg Hunter's electro-dub magic is good in any context, but for some reason it's particularly interesting here with rock-n-roll. - -=Seofon Ambient Temple of Imagination > http://www.a-toi.com > http://www.mp3.com/atoi double-disc anthology Y2KAOS now available! > http://www.a-toi.com/y2kaos # 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: Sat, 22 Apr 2000 11:45:44 -0800 From: seofon@slip.net (Seofon) Subject: (orb) samplespotting fest 2000 I've happened upon a great source of Orb samples, namely The Tape-beatles. Here's what I've found so far ... Is anyone keeping a master list of Orb sample sources somewhere? - ----- PLATEAU (tokyo 2.7.93) "I've got a beautiful state here.
