MBM Memories
by David Hull 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

Saw MBM with opening act Consolidated back in '91 or '92 in NYC at the Limelight. Classic show unfortunately made even more memorable by the fact that my car got towed during the show. In fact, an entire BLOCK of cars were towed. I thought I was going mad until a few others from the gig showed up searching for their vehicles on the same block. Be well. Hully

Orb Mash-Up
by rachel 21 Jun '05

21 Jun '05

So I have to admit, I was kinda into the Eminem mash-up that LX did several years back, but this track my friend found is just awful. I thought I would share the horror with you all, but don't say I didn't warn you: http://www.backsideoftheorb.com/ugh/ =) rachel

OT - MBM/DHS/EBN connection
by Tim C 19 Jun '05

19 Jun '05

In reviews for the first couple of shows, it was inferred that Ben Stokes used to be with EBN. I don't think he ever did anything with them - unless he used a different name. He's not in the credits for Commercial Entertainent Product or Telecommunication Breakdown (Jack Dangers did audio production on that one though). Anyone have more info on this, or was it just "same videos = guy must have been with EBN" kind of conclusion? T

Surely the Battersea cover LP to which you refer is "Adventures beyond the Ultraword" which did have an Aubrey remix album. The other Aubrey albums are collections of Orb remixes. Or am I missing something?

Orbscure sample spotting
by Hunter, Matthew 18 Jun '05

18 Jun '05

OK orbies, here are my two bits of Orb sample spotting. 1. In the Mixmag Live tape (vol 9, the one LX shares with Mixmaster Morris) there is a french voice speaking at about 9:30 (between the System 7 track and the Suns of Arqa) which is sampled from the beginning of a French movie of Orpheus & Euridice. The voice is saying "it is the privilege of legends to be timeless" 2. The Orb track on the Positiva Ambient Collection (OOBE live version) the intro is a slowed down channel from the opening bars of a song called "I want to marry a lighthouse keeper". Can't remember who it's by though.
