DVD Teaser
by CHRISTIAN G. NELSON 15 May '02

15 May '02

Hi guy's Check this link out http://www.bonetweb.com/u.f.orb/ You're the first to see this! I would have posted the whole intro and submenu sequence but I don't have enough room on this server. But I can tell you some I words what it looks like! 1. AquariumIntro is the first thing you see when you put the DVD in your player. 2. MainMenu a rotating big doughnut like object, and the upper right corner is softly flashing and of course the Orb Aquarium title logo is waving sea breeze softly. 3. TexturesAndPatterns menu a amazing animation in the background very orbish 4. U.F.Off menu a zoom on y and x axel rotation all sub menus has some nice orb loops in the background. I'm about to make some dupes of the DVD, and give it away free!!! And my mission is to get you each and everyone a copy somehow! Now my question! Who of you have the equipment to make copies?? Because I can't sit here all day making copies and sending them the mail way! I need some key persons that we trust to make this happen. And of course I have the possibility to make a DVD rip of it with super quality DIVX 5.01 and maybe post it to some key Orb FTP?! What do I know.. Everything is possible... but I need help! There are some on the list that will get an instant copy! Persons that I owe a lot, and have helped me out! Please help me out here, I suck at this. christian nelson - www.uf-orb.com

> 3. Bytesize Nuns/ Codpiece: I grabbed the mp3's from the mp3 project issued discs and am loving this release. Anyone have any info on when it was released, what label, and all the usual necessary info so I can scour the earth to find an official copy? Also, does some fortunate soul actually have a scan of the sleeve? I know the Trouser Torpedo mix was issued on TEX4 and the Paterson/Emmerson discs. Does anyone know if the remix was an exclusive or if it too was released on 12"? As far as I'm aware, TEEX4 and 'Textures' were the only occurence of the 'ByTESIZE NUNS' - Smiley? l8rs, Nick ;-o P.S. Never heard of the colour vinyls myself, but that doesn't mean to say that they don't exist!

Artists similar to the Orb (was RE: [Orb] Fireman ( McCartney & Y outh..))

May be a bad subject, tag, but this is a stream of conscience kind of question: If I like the orb, and I do, what other artists/bands would I like? kr, dcdawson -----Original Message----- From: Dan Kelly [mailto:dp.kelly@comcast.net] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 7:15 PM To: orb(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Orb] Fireman ( McCartney & Youth..) Bbbrooo(a)aol.com asked: (re: Fireman} "I'm intrigued, is this music any good?" chilled, ambient, very nice - should appeal to Orb fans. get the "Rushes" cd; also a nice dub on the Liverpool Sound Collage cd. the "Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest" cd is several variations of the same track. dan _______________________________________________ Orb mailing list Orb(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orb

1)I looked around for this awhile back, (I think that it was even mentioned on list - damn this faulty memory cell). I managed to find excerpts from the classical (orchestral version) of Little Fluffy clouds in a number of places. Recent searches reveal two orchestral groups (but they could be one and the same): a) Fourplay (from Sydney), and b)Instrumental (UK label: Acoustek). 2)"Orb playing in Finland". Who exactly are the Orb these days? Did Andy Hughes get a replacement? Is Witchman now a member of the orb? cheers, bill

Yeah MTV has been using Blue Room for various stuff for years Jason (who swears he once heard Toxygene in the background of movie commercial, but may have just been...) ----- Original Message ----- From: Noraa Selim Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 6:02 PM To: orb(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: Re: [Orb] The Orb at the Bon Marche' This all reminds me of something I heard before I joined up with the list but I remember walking into the Bon (a popular clothing store over in the Pacific Northwest U.S.A) and suddenly hearing the beginning siren and liquidish drums of Blueroom on the television screens that normally show ads and dancing chicks. I waited to see Alex but all they did was use the music for the background for a series of interviews about what chicks like to wear or something. What really sucks is that they used film footage of Crystal Method. I felt so robbed and violated. -peace out _____________________________________________________________ Get email for your site ---> http://www.everyone.net _____________________________________________________________ Promote your group and strengthen ties to your members with email(a)yourgroup.org by Everyone.net http://www.everyone.net/?btn=tag _______________________________________________ Orb mailing list Orb(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orbGet more from the Web.

The Orb on NPR?
by Chris Dawson 14 May '02

14 May '02

While driving to work today at about the 8 O'clcok hour, the local NPR station (Chapel Hill, NC) does their regular station id. I have been hearing this music in the background under the announcer and I swear it is little fluffy clouds, but not the album version. They play this sample quite a bit and the reason I think it might be the orb is because they have played stuff like Moby, DJ Shadow (new album out yet?) , Banco De Gia, etc. Has anyone else who listens to NPR heard this or am I wishfully thinking? Thinking maybe the while station id is local, the music they get to play might be from an approved list blah blah blah. kr, dcdawson

Ain't nobody like the Orb, but I would recommend Future Sound of London, Sun Electric, Bill Laswell's Divination project, Fripp/Eno, Spacetime Continuum, and Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works (Vol. 1 is decidedly more Orbish than Vol. 2) btw comparing Sasha and Digweed to the Orb should be punishable by death. ;-) Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Dawson Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 5:53 AM To: 'orb(a)mailman.xmission.com' Subject: Artists similar to the Orb (was RE: [Orb] Fireman ( McCartney & Youth..))
