Well, I just ordered a Madonna Project cd (some cash for our good old Kris, hope it's not too noisy for me !). I got a copy of the Japanese orb album. Well, the tracks are too short for me. From A Distance : the first time I heard that, bleh... :( not really a great tune. I'm wondering how the remixes will add something. But I love some other tracks especially Land of Green Ginger (better than the Back to Mine version), Dilmun, Hell's Kitchen... I just got it two days ago, so we'll talk about it in a few weeks...

If you are right John, does anyone know where I can get the "Copenhagen Trokronner (93) triple cd box-set bootleg straight from DAT"? ************************ Not bad Kris, we've just celebrated British thanksgiving day, so everyone I know is in "recover and restore" mode (the fireworks were intense!) When can we expect to see your's and Simons remix stuff? cheers bbroo P.S. Going to be in your neck of the woods in Aug, any chance I can get some short voice soundbites (eg, audio interview) of you reminising/cursing/etc, about the early orb years, for an orb remix I'm doing? You will get a free cup of tea: Darjeeling, Green, Tetleys, or Mushroom, your choice?

> Smiley, any news on dates for the > 5 UNRELEASED ORB-SCURITIES per theorb.com? I could be wrong, but I don't think there are any plans to actually release those. I think it's just a top 5 list. JG

"orb is" remix and shameless plug...
by Tweezer Fetish 06 Jul '03

i threw this remix together today. thoughts of that damn remix email from a while ago had been rumbling around my head and it was time for some action. take it for what it is. id rather listen to this mix than the original now but im biased. http://www.planetotaku.com/media/unreleased/orb_is_much_better_now_edit.mp3 and now that the details have been finalized for the 2nd release by my band OTAKU, it seemed an appropriate time for some shameless promotion. there a bunch of tracks from our albums and compilations for download at the following url if you happen to be interested: http://www.planetotaku.com/music.html not sure how you would classify our music. dub. electronica. abstract beats. noise. ambient. it's kind of are all over the place (probably due to the eclectic influences on us and the fact that we sample from everyone and everywhere). but i thought there may be a few of you who might enjoy it. thanks. tweez __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
