greetings from Vancouver (an old school orb fan)
by Danjel van Tijn 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

Hi Orb fans, I used to be on this list ten years ago!! I first heard the orb when I was about 13 and was instantly hooked (lying in the sun listening to ultraworld). Since then my infatuation with electronic music had definitely consumed my life. I got a degree in electrical eningeering primarily to be able to build my own synths and fx. I then supplemented this with a diploma in recording arts. I produce deep techno under the guise "Intellijel" (short for intelligent jell-o) and you can check out some of my stuff at www.intellijel.com Why am I hear?? To be honest, I am an old school orb fan; I still consider the Blue Room to be the greatest piece of electronic music of all time. I still regulalry listen to u.f.orb, orbus terrerum and ultraworld BUT I lost interest by the time Orblivion was dropped. Cydonia, Bikes and Trikes and other stuff I have not connected with... feels like the golden age of the Orb was in the past with heavy collaboration (I consider Fehlman, Weatherall and Hillage to be key elements). All that being said, I am very keen to hear the new work on Kompakt with Mr. Fehlman. My question: Can someone point me to some links, interviews. resources etc. that discuss in nerdy detail the equipment and processes used on the older Orb albums?? Even new equipment/production techniques are of interest. cheers, Danjel aka Intellijel [Vancouver]

Why don't you just have yourself removed from the list asshat. Nobody wants to read your negative crap over and over and over again. P.S. I don't give a shit how long you or I have been on the list. ---- John Goelzer <johng(a)engberganderson.com> wrote: > You don't get it.

Bicycles & Tricycles
by Justin Gimblett 26 Jan '06

26 Jan '06

Hey guys, and hello from a new member to the list. I had a question regarding the B&T album. I have the Japanese version of the album, but noticed that the UK and US versions of the album also seem to differ in the track listings in some of the names i.e. Orb Is (Shopping version); Abstractions (trance pennine express); from a distance (master blaster v the corporal); tower twenty three (spud v kreature mix); Kompania (grooved ware mix). Are these tracks on the UK and US version of the album all different mixes from the Japanese ones? Or are they the same but they didn't bother printing out the extra parts to the song names on the Japanese CD? Oh yeah and another Q, is there anywhere that people can trade orb rarities apart from ebay? (lol!) Stuff like live gigs, bootlegs, unreleased stuff etc? I am sure you guys have everything and more by the Orb, but would be interested in hooking up with a few of you collectors. There seems hardly any resource on the orb out there in www land. Cheers Scribb
