I can't find the link to a track listing for the Music for Listeners 5 hour thing. Totally enjoyable and good enough quality for my earphones.

Has anyone tracked this show and made individual tracks out of it yet? That would be nice.

In the first recording I was in Cherokee park (an Olmsted park) and it wasn't nearly as intense as I expected. In that one I was parked on a hill and a bicycle zooms past. In the 2nd recording I was in an open area with isolated big trees and it was incredibly loud. My truck was on the side of the road with the microphone set on the toolbox. At some point a car drives past. It gives you a good idea of how loud it was. In a wave editor the pattern looks just like a pop song: http://www.psychicreform.com/Music/index.htm ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ "Be who you are... not what's cool." --Chef.

The Music For Listeners Orb show is this weekend....tune in live this Saturday morning!
by Music For Listeners 13 Oct '06

13 Oct '06

M-T Here ..wanted to tell everyone that I'm fucking stoked about the Orb show this weekend on Music For Listeners. I've edited the interview, sent off copies of the live recording to Orb HQ, and all is ready. The live set is going to be played as it happened on March 21st, 2006 - Red 7 in Austin, TX. I am playing selected pieces from Alex's DJ set, but the Orb set will be played as is, unedited. There maybe a voice over here or there, (station ID's, etc.), but what do you want for free? The Orb set runs just under 93 minutes!!! This is all early morning for you in the European zones. The show airs live 5 AM - 10 AM GMT on Saturday. If you happen to live in "A Merry Car", then it is on live at 1 AM - 6 AM Eastern Daylight Time. For you lucky people in Australia.....it's on 3 PM - 8 PM, Saturday evening by Sydney's watch!!! The show is currently broadcast on Central Daylight Time, so it broadcasts out of San Antonio, TX from Midnight - 5 AM CDT. Go to www.musicforlisteners.com to follow the link to the krtu.org webcast and listen in live. Just to let you know, I think Thomas and LX were not that pleased with some of their sounds cutting out during the set. They mentioned the sound problems after the show, but the sound cuts out only two or three times during the set for a split second. It just adds to the "live experience". These problems were in real time. I tried to edit the spaces, but it sounded even worse as it sounded like a skip instead of a break. So...the live set is as it was played and heard. Most likely the live set will air after the interview...I plan on starting the interview rather early in the broadcast. Five hours is certainly not enough for this bands wonderful catalog, but I do hope to play my absolute favorites during the show. If you want to make a suggestion or if there is something you think I just have to play, just send me a e-mail to info(a)musicforlisteners.com . I don't think any of "Okie Dokey" will be played as they play almost every track from it during the live set. I do hope all you Orbheads get to listen. Certainly if "head" phones if you got 'em. Muchos gracias to Alex P. for letting me record the set for radio broadcast and webcast!!! Muchos gracias to both LX and Thomas for sitting down and having a chat about their past, presents, and futures. Peace...out Michael "Skidoo" Thomas P.S. Also, a big thanks to certain list members for heading me in the right direction to set up the interview. MySpace...blog entry. www.myspace.com/musicforlisteners This week on Music For Listeners.... ..Ambient-house pioneers, The Orb for five hours! There will be a complete live set and also an interview that was held with Alex Patterson and Thomas Fehlmann. These were both recorded in March 2006 at the Red 7 club in Austin, TX. Music For Listeners is also very grateful to be chosen to be the radio program to document a sound recording during the 2006 "A Merry Car Tour". You will hear the interview and the concert in its entirety along with other music written or remixed by the band. You can hear all this on this Saturday morning, July 15th, 2006. Go to www.krtu.org and listen live Midnight - 5AM CDT (5AM-10AM GMT) If you live in San Antonio, then you can listen on KRTU 91.7 on the FM dial. Spend a part of your weekend chillin' with The Orb! If you tune in live, you can call the station ONLY from 5AM-10AM GMT on Saturday to request your favorite Orb track. You can also send us a message on here or at info(a)musicforlisteners.com to make a suggestion before or during the show. If you miss the live broadcast, you can stream the show on demand for a couple of weeks on www.musicforlisteners.com Remember.....An Orb is not just for Christmas.....it's for life...

Living in a giant huge ever growing pulsating candle.....

Don't get me wrong, I like the new Transit Kings CD, but I wish they'dsaved some surprises. Between the EP, the recent, downloadable podcasts from both The Orb, and the Transit Kings; I thinkI've already heard pretty much everything on it. Now if I couldonly get the melody to concourse (aka magic) out of my head......
