Full Orbient - any comments?
by marcolphus 15 Sep '08

15 Sep '08

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

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
by Jean Christophe DERRIEN 03 Sep '08

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

Hey all, there used to be a guy from the UK who appeared on the list from time to time who had the handle Groovy Geeza. His favorite band was System 7 and he was a nut for them. I got a few recordings from him several years ago, but he's vanished since. Does anybody know him or remember him? if so let him know I'm trying to contact him. Gavin
