The Orb biography on theorb.com
by Jean Christophe DERRIEN 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

who wrote this ????? (One of the only outside remixes of Orb material occurred around this time when breakbeat pioneers Coldcut remixed the Kiss EP for a U.S.- only single.) I'm sure they talk about the Little Fluffy Clouds remix ??? At the end of the biography, they never mention Andy Hughes, Witchman and the other collaborators. They recreate the past, ain't that great... JC

Q&A with Dr Alex Paterson
by b broo 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Thanks for doing this Steve. (isn't it just one 't' in paterson?) Q: 1) Is there any truth to the rumour that there will be an Orb DJ (or live) session in an amsterdam coffeeshop for all the orb listees who have supported the band with their hard earned cash throughout the years?...."the dream" (is alive) promotional event, maybe...? ...'kashmir coffeeshop', 'twstd nightclub', 'Sugar Factory' or 'Studio 80' would be great locations. 2) Did I hear that LX is a dad again? 3) Is his daughter into music? Does he find himself influencing what she listens to and does she like the orb? 4) Is it true that a certain ex-orb member (heavy metal fan) has always been an egotwisted twat or do his deep psychological problems spring from the day he was locked out of the studio? 5) The day before this, was Alex repeatedly playing a simple sine sine wave when he was told to f*off by this same individual and thus ended his orb involvement? 6) Does Alex foresee any future Orb presence in online virtual worlds such as Second Life, etc, or does he think it's a load of crap? 7) Does he ever use an erbthc vaporizer, if so what is his preferred setting? 8) What would be the cost for the Orb to play at a solar powered Total Eclipse Party on July, 22, 2009 in Nepal or Northeast India? Please thank him for all the inspiration the orb's music has given us over the years. thanks, bbroo ----------------------------------------------------------------------- p.s. PV power rules - have just got our electricity meter spinning backwards and in one day have already saved 54 lbs of CO2. Now if I can only get my prototype electric car to go over 20 mph. Roll on the end of oil.... _________________________________________________________________ Share your special parenting moments! http://www.reallivemoms.com?ocid=TXT_TAGHM&loc=us

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