Borrowed Love
by Robert Stringer 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

http://www.discogs.com/Orb-The-OOBE-Adventure/release/318187 The cd doesn't give the title, but the Orb and KLF collaboration is called 'Borrowed Love'. The Orb and Coldcut collaboration isn't a track they did, but rather is a portion of a mix called '3D Rhythms' they did for KISS FM. I don't know all the songs from the play list in the short segment presented on this cd; but the songs I recognize included in this Orb Coldcut mix are at least: 'Life After Death (Beat Untold Mix)' by Ultraworld 'Don't Fight It, Feel It' by Primal Scream 'Fast Forward the Future (The Orb's Bucket and Bong Mix)' by Zodiac Youth Is this mic the ORB vs Coldcut set that has been on the web for many years? -- RMStringer +++++++++++++++ Spacetime is a game board.

Orb output (not mentioned yet on the list)
by polar-sequence 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hi, Glad to see that there is a bit of discussion on the list, it's been way too quiet! J Here's some output that I discovered and that hasn't been mentioned on the list (or not in so much detail): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ The Orb exclusives (via www.theorb.com ): There's been 8 so far: excl001 The Orb rework Mad Professor - Beyond The Realms Of The Orb [This is taken from the Mad Orb sessions recorded in Berlin a while back with Thomas Fehlmann and Alex Paterson. A bigger and brighter version from the orb vaults. Mad Professor gets the full Orb treatment & all the plugs face off with each other in full affect. A all time favourite tune of LX#s turned upside down & INSIDE OUT." Not quite sure whether or not this is the same as on the "I'll Be Black" 2xCD, this is unmixed anyway.] excl002 The Orb - 23rd Century Football 2 [Ambient!] excl003 The Orb - Blast Master ["A reunion of Jimmy Cauty and Lx Paterson, remixed by Thomas Fehlmann". Typical Thomas remix, dub techno style.] excl004 The Orb - Once More (Bedrock Dub Remix) ["A rare Once More Dub Remix by Bedrock (some of you may know him by a different name), previously unheard and unreleased." Another remix version of the track, nothing outstanding IMO.] excl005 Mad Orb - Dirty Disco Dub (Hello Daddy Remix) [The shop lists this track as "Dirty Disco Dub (Hello Daddy Remix)", whereas the mp3 tag notes "Dirty Dancehall Dub O/Nite Mix". "Original Mix that wasn't choosen for the album" Nice Orb weirdness.] excl006 The Orb - Portuguese Castles 3.14159 [Unreleased version of 'Spanish Castles In Space'. "Not Spanish..." Wonderful version of the track.] excl007 The Orb - Royal Blue Room [This is a previously unreleased version of "Blue Room", done together with Matthew (who is he???). "Not turquoise...". ] excl008 The Orb - M's [This is a previously unreleased remix of 'Centuries'. "Tea at Toms Remix of an Orb Classic....". Tea at Toms: a band, a mix name, ???] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Screen & HFB on Bestival free downloadable compliation (via http://2012.bestival.net/areas#ambient-forest ) "There's plenty to salve the psyche and enrich the soul on the Ambient Forest's lakeside stage with soothing grooves supplied by myriad cosmic crusaders including Dr Alex Paterson (The Orb), Pete Gooding, Chris Coco, Tom Middleton, Phil Mison, Mixmaster Morris, Pathaan, Tythe, Mojo Filter and Balearica's Graeme Fisher. To celebrate our love for this special part of the site a secret Sounds from Bestival's Ambient Forest collection has been put together by some of the artists who will be performing in amongst the trees in the wild woodland, reflecting the sounds they believe fit the meditative spiritual vibe of Bestival's most tranquil music space. Strum a few notes in the Ambient Forest to find it. ;)" Tracks included: Screen - Smokescreen (Psy-Dub Mix) 5:11 HFB - Nano Bytes (Take My Eyes/Reactive Mix) 5:45 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Previously unreleased Pulsating Brain demos! (see http://www.discogs.com/Orb-Four-Early-Orb-Demos-For-A-Huge-Ever-Growing/rele ase/3610610 ) The CD contains a single 23.15 track that is made up of 4 early Orb recordings lifted from a rescued demo tape. Given away free with orders of the T-shirt (PVC TSK2PHL02G). Limited number unknown. Unfortunately, This CDr is sold out and cannot be ordered anymore. Now, if someone has a copy and is willing to share, I'd be very happy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Shrubbn!! - Echos remixed by The Orb (via a.o. Bleep: https://bleep.com/release/34072 ) Label: Shitkatapult, Date: 11th November 2011, Cat#: Strike 130. Released on vinyl (limited to 666 numbered copies) and download. Great epic ambient/dub techno remix, clocking in at 13.36! Just like the old days. J ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ LCMDF - Take me to the mountains (http://heavenlyrecordings.com/news/2011/09/hvn229-lcmdf-take-me-to-the-moun tains/ ) Label: Heavenly Recordings, Date: 12th September 2011, Cat#: HVN229 Contains the following track: Take Me To The Mountains (The Orb v Autolump Easy Pace remix) 7.04 Digital download only, and so far I haven't found a shop that offers the track in FLAC to The Netherlands. Anyone? I'm sure that there's more out there, spread the word!!! Regards, Johan

For about 12 years i have been on this list. From the Thrash years and running ftp for 8 of those years. There's always been assholes on this list. This my last communication with it as it is a defunct notion. Some of you have been great and others not so. It is time for me to drift off to another system...

Ninja Tune mix
by Dan Motut 05 Apr '12

05 Apr '12

Hey everyone. Was poking around XLR8Rs website and in 2010 they blogged and linked to an old dj mix from LX & Thomas from New Years 91. Ninja Tune had the download up for only 6 days... Did anyone grab a copy of this? And would you be willing to upload it to a site like sendspace.com or filefactory.com? Thanks in advance for any help :) Sent from my iPhone
