(that ain't Paris, TX he's talking about....) << "Bicycles & Tricycles" is finally getting a stateside release this summer! >> ah yes. but the important question is: will it be the same as the UK release, or will it be yet another set of mixes?

wel, as someone who has a copy of Spherical but was in no way involved in its creation, nor was i on the List at that time, i recommend it. most of the stuff works really well, and there is a definite "orbishness" to it...

I thought would be fun to go back 5 years. Like the local newspapers do sometimes. awww cute a younger rachel: From: rachel <neptune(a)voidwhereprohibited.com> Subject: Re: (orb) FAVORITE ORB? Date: 05 Nov 1999 16:32:42 -0800 >just a question for everyone to answer (think hard).... no thinking necessary - perpetual dawn is by far my favourite track - its the one that really drew me into the orb with that funny laugh, pleasant dubby beat... it is the epitome of orb: bumpin, humourous, with a tinge of mischief! Ultrabass II has to be my favourite mix, and thusly the UK cd5 of perpetual dawn being my favourite release ... there's nothing like cruising around sunny california with Perpetual Dawn blasting out of the car - never ceases to make me happy! (i could put those 4 mixes on repeat and never tire of them, i swear!) =) rachel This little gem of a schizoid flame war got me kicked in heartbeat.

Fuck The N.M.E!
by David Doree 08 Jun '04

The following Is a quote from This weeks u.k.New musical express about B&T; "They took ambient house overground,now It's time to bury It. With such a willfully archaic-sounding album title,Alex Paterson can only be saying "Yes I know you may consider me years out of date,but that's your tough beans-here I am with more of the same!"Because make no mistake,'Bicycles....'is more of the same from an act who have been ploughing the same furrow for so long they'll be reaching the Earth's core soon.And when it isn't the two-steppy 'Gee strings'and the spectaculary aimless wind-chime nonsense of 'Kompania',it tends to be a bit rubbish. But The Orb didn't get where they are today by making vast sweeping formula-fucking changes-they did it by making pleasent,squiggy music that sounds like an aural back-rub when you've taken enough LSD to make a horse think it's a hummingbird,and if that's all you desire,then seek out the warming wave-washes and stream-of-consciousness rhyming of 'Aftermath'or the lysergic 'Ever-Pulsating Brain...'noodling of 'Hell's Kitchen'.It's all,of course,utterly useless if you're not totally pickled on acid but then so is tipping cows,and we all do that"-Pete Cashmore.-3/10. ----Here's my Two pence,Fuck the N.M.E.and Fuck Pete Cashmore.Who the fuck does he think he Is? This comes from a music paper that utterly dotes on Morrisey so much that they give away CD's of his influences,and you can't open It no matter what week without seeing a picture of that twat!- Once again Fuck The N.M.E!-I aint buying that piece of shit again and I'm gonna wipe my back door with that review next time I lay a log!-Fuck 'em! ____________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
