I'm really surprised that no one commented FUll Orbient podcast on XLR8R. There are at least 4 new Orb tracks!! I especially love these 3 ambient ones: Plastic Beauty, Suburban Percussion and Mutant Waste (ambient mix). I think that it's the best ambient tracks since Markus Guentner's "1981" album!! I can't wait to hear all the soundtrack - I'm assuming that these tracks are taken from this: 2/ plastic Planet film sound track ( 90 minutes ) with thomas Fehlmann (source: http://www.lastfm.pl/label/Iron+Man/journal/2008/05/14/cfkdf_the_orb_-_the_… ) 90 minutes of such bliss - it will be overwhelming!! Anyway, these are also best tracks made with Fehlmann ever!! Can't stop listening to them... And Rock On is also great, however I can't understand who cover it is? -- muzyka. kultura. markolf ::::: http://www.markolf.org

Third Orbsessions?
by marcolphus 14 Sep '08

No one mention this: "REAX: Before being given the job of fanboy interviewer, I sent an MP3 of the Peel Sessions version of "No Fun" to the magazine's general manager … AP: Yeah, that's my roots, in all honesty! The Orbsessions CDs are being put out on Malicious Damage. *The third one is just about to come out, but we're going to put out a fourth one* ... it's gonna be all the early punk stuff that we can dig up. It will be a where-it-all-started-for-me kind of thing." It's a joke or what?

(OT) Beyond the wizard's sleeve CD

The first cd from Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve (Erol Alkan and Richard Norris from The Grid) is only available at Rough Trade. I love their remixes (Tracey Thorn, Goldfrapp, Midlake) and their 12" are always interesting. JC
