BULLOCKS! would it kill you to use an occasional surname, not all of us are failed, aging, not to mention washed up relics from the Britains Peace Love and E movement. I luv ya aunty I got that Plaid forest green album yesterday, the one w/Bjork and female vocals and stuff. Now that is a fucking record. almost as good as Secret Cheifs doing "I saw mommie kissing santa claus" bOB >Black dog was what ed and andy were in with ken >Before they got rid of ken and formed plaid.. > >-- > > )) > (( > c[_] bLiP > > www.justablip.co.uk >(don't bother going there) > > >_______________________________________________ >Orb mailing list >Orb(a)mailman.xmission.com >http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orb _________________________________________________________________ Frustrated with dial-up?

WEEN 2nd attempt
by Alan 22 Sep '03

22 Sep '03

Can you believe I broke the 3kb limit?!?! Me neither! PUSH THE LITTLE DAISIES AND WATCH THEM COME UP!!! That song still makes me want to grab their heads and knock them together. My last drummer/musical partner was a huge Ween fan. I like them ok. I haven't heard anything from them that was consistently excellent all the way through except maybe that C&W album. They always seem to need to be seriously annoying smart asses at some point on their records. That wouldn't be bad if the smart ass songs weren't often really pretty stupid. Does anyone else on the list like Naked City at all? Zorn's non-dark ambient stuff is just hilarious to me. The fact that it's a live band playing it moves it to that next level of unbelievability. Another band I love (and didn't the Orb remix them?) is Material. Somehow their deep mixes and integration of spoken word into their songs seems very related to whatever genre of music the Orb et. al. makes. I know there are some other Laswell fans on the list. Anything actually new from those guys? It seems as though they've spent the last few years remixing the sessions they did with Burroughs. An aside (you studio rats will like this): I was talking with the drummer from Oingo Boingo in the mid 90's and he was in the studio while they were mastering Hallucination Engine. He said those recordings were years old and poorly preserved so they had to stop and clean the tape heads after every pass because so much oxide was flaking off. Ah, the impermanence of all things musical. And this dodges me back on topic, oddly enough. Hey, Kris, what medium were you guys using when you recorded the first album? Was it two inch tape on a couple of synched Studers or half inch tape on a fostex 8-track? Adats were still a dream at that point, weren't they? I don't remember seeing any HD recording system until 92 or 93 (do they still make Paris?). Was all the actual mixing done by hand on a console or was some of it automated? Are there any parts of that original studio set-up that you covet today? Were all sounds recorded to tape or were you using midi-synch to drive some samplers and sequencers? I'm curious as to what type of console, monitors, outboard gear, etc. you were using. What type of monitors are you using now? I'm thinking about going with the big Mackies as my next purchase but I really like the classic sound of JBL. www.psychicreform.com Change your mind. "I'm the commander--see, I don't need to explain--I do not need to explain why I say things. That's the interesting thing about being the president. Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody an explanation." -- George Bush

ween
by bla blazo 22 Sep '03

22 Sep '03

Ween just keeps getting better and better. I saw them earlier this tour in Milwaukee, WI. They kicked my ass all over the place. I was happy to find find out that they're playing two shows in Chicago in November! Already got my tickets. If you want to hear some ween just go to ween.com. There are some links to some pretty large mp3 sites and weenradio as well. <orb content> - that g strings song on B&T is probably the worst orb track I've ever heard. Damn! I think if LX et al had dropped the first couple of tracks on B&T and streched out some of the others that it could've been a great album. The longest track doesn't even top the eight minute mark! All in all though, it's a good album...not great, but good. -matt _________________________________________________________________ Instant message in style with MSN Messenger 6.0.
