Trippy eh? I just saw that ^ KLH: LP Chillout (vinyl) and the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu (JAMMS) 1987 also on wax. Are they worth the rub of like 22 USD for the latter and 18 for the former? Also, how is Oribitals last album? Their B2M was the best of em all but their song on there was by far the only bad one, craptastic Ska'd for life or whatever. The worm turns, the wind shifts one-eighty, and the firestorm turns back on the arsonists, who had been operating with impunity for so long that they'd forgotten the feeling of Heat. -From the book Songs of the Doomed by Hunter S. Thompson

>You know what's weird? I don't see Kris Weston's name listed under REUNION >PARTY!!! So as far as I'm concerned this will suck. Cuz you're one of his lackies. How cute. Well I just paypalled Thrash about 16 pounds which is like 23 dollars US and asked for a CD or something in the mail, he replied "Tuff shit, I got your donation and don't hafta send you shit. Fuck you if the links on Madonna are broken" or something to that effect. Well I guess he and Alex have one thing in common, but I truly don't believe any one of them possess "the orb" within, although alex is a fuck of alot nicer, even if the music still sucks and I'm getting ripped off. Thrash and LX are both waiting to suck your teacup, so whadda you care? P.S. Anybody got that new Orbital, Coldcut or Fourtet? Lemme know whats any good.

1) To put on a better show for friends (at burning man), I've recently purchased a number of trippy DVD's. Movie images I particularly like: a) "Liquid crystal vision", b) "Alien dreamtime" with Terence McKenna - (thanks for the recommendation Mike Vandevelde), c) "AV3 -the innerscape adventures", and d) "Strange attractors". Anyone else have any recommendations? I'm still trying to master the set up, but with 3 old laptops, 2 (borrowed) projectors, screen, simple mixer, portable cd player and portable sound system, I've been able to get something that should keep them happy. The DVD's are projected, usually overlapped (sometimes speeded up or reversed) and the soundtracks, my .wav files and cd's manually mixed in and out as required. How do you professional guys do it? - you need to evolve an extra limb for this process. Overlapping DVD's e) "AV:X.02 Spaced out" and f) "For all mankind", seem to go particularly well with some of my nasa remix stuff. "Mankind" is the source of ALL the Orb's nasa samples and it's soundtrack contains Eno's CD "Apollo (atmospheres & soundtracks)", so is great to sample and layer into the orb remixes. With the nearly full moon in the desert sky, there should be some space travel and at least one moon landing. Did you know the full sample was: "30 minutes from the command module Pete said to me do you want to fly this thing". "The people at mission control won't like that". "Don't worry we are on the backside of the moon, they'll never know"! Another quote I like (don't know which {"buddist"} astronaut): "we have seen as much in 10 days as most men see in 10 lifetimes" -ha. Images from Imax movies: g) "Cosmic Voyage", h) Blue Planet, i) Origins of life, j) Genesis, etc, also overlap nicely for a richer experience. 2) Bit of political humor: scroll down to cartoons for each month - http://www.workingforchange.com/column_lst.cfm?AuthrId=43 cheers bb *********************** search engine signpost <~ ^ ~> the orb bbroo remix = bbbrooo at hotmail.com = American Dream, Moonlight Orbbery, Burnt Offering, 2001 - a Space Orbyssey, LX bill brooks remix, bbroo robs orb, my mind is going, dr schrodinger's cat, on yer trike alice, consciousness, life out there, http://www.visualimpactflowers.com/darko.htm _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/

You know what's weird? I don't see Kris Weston's name listed under REUNION PARTY!!! So as far as I'm concerned this will suck. They should not even call themselves the Orb. They should call themselves Dr. Promoter, with Nob, and Idiot.com. I hope you remember some of the stories Thrash told about Youth's production techniques. Blowing smoke into the DAT machine, wow groovy brother. I don't know what's so lucky about being able to go and see this show. Maybe the fact that you can get up in Alex's face and tell him he fucked up the orb. Peace out brothers, and sistahz ----Original Message Follows---- From: "-->rachel" <rachel(a)migoto.com> Reply-To: What were the skies like when you were young?<orb(a)mailman.xmission.com> To: What were the skies like when you were young? <orb(a)mailman.xmission.com> Subject: [Orb] head's up, you lucky brits!

>Free exclusive cd for the first 250 through the door... > ...miss this at your peril! Thanks a lot Rachel, thanks for showing us what we get to miss since we're fucking worthless yanks. Coldcut too? The only person that does D n' B that I like, actually Amen Andrews (vibert) is good too but very upsetting to miss. >The show was a little over 30 minutes and the mp3 is about 45 megs. >Hands down my best live performance to date.... Hey gel, thanks for the audio. I am watching your video from your website right now and its pretty professional. I mean, I know you were a serious crafstman, but thats some cwazy stuff with that song you got that rips off Pomme Fritz.. he he, love it tho. Get some of those pics up on your website or I'll start sending you Phish articles again. >b bro wrote >1) To put on a better show for friends (at burning man), I've recently >purchased a number of trippy DVD's.

I like winamp's AV Society or those stupid dancing stick people on Realplayer. >2) Bit of political humor: Hands down the trippiest 'Goofy Bush' video yet by Perfect Circle with this remix thing.. just check it.
