friends for cydonia
by Corbett De Rush 20 Nov '02

I liked it so much I paid $40 canadian for the uk version after I already had the us version(just had to have that EMR track). The use of strings on promis is just awe inspiring too! Terminus sounds at once new and like an old friend that you are so happy to hear from again. Me only gripe(if you could call it that) would be I could do without the haunting female vocals. Anyone know why there are different versions for the poor souls on this side of the Atlantic? You guys(n'gals) in the UK seem to have all the fun. And what does =20 mean? _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Dr Didg - King Tut - (Cardiff Casablanca Club Mix (23.46)
by BC23 20 Nov '02

20 Nov '02

Krisy crumb, well I never. Well I hope you don't mind (like), but, I'd really love to have this on mp3. cd ideally but it doesn't appear to be still in-print as it where. I'm also interested to know where the title came from as I am a long suffering resident of Cardiff, and I'm damn sure DrDidg or your good self have not played there. (mind you I could be wrong) Anyway, anyone who has this please be in touch. go to http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bc23/innerspace/ to find my latest offering. Kris, hope you don't mind but this is a particularly good tune and rare as you like. (PS, did you know that another Kris (Needs) is from Cardiff to.... see we're not all sheep staggers. bc23(a)ntlworld.com <Kris Wrote> THAT'S ME! THAT'S ME !!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOO I MIXED THAT I DID OI !!!! WHOOOOO WWOOOOOO NEENER NEENER..

Zippy
by Alan Evil 20 Nov '02

First I'd like to apologize for sending an e-mail in html. I've now reset OE so that text is the default. Number B I would like to quote Zippy the Pinhead (probably not the same Zippy that Thrash is referring to but he's MY favorite Zippy): "Somewhere in New Jersey a prostitute is frying pork chops." And lastly I would like to confer that I listened to old live Orb shows all morning while scraping paint and it has inspired me to go do some ambient recording I've been meaning to do for a while. If I could get any of you out there to record yourself saying "The Institute for Psychic Reform... Change Your Mind" (especially if you have an interesting, non-Kentucky accent) and sending it to me as an mp3 that would be great. I've been doing this for myself and a friend in London with women here in Kentucky and it's been really fun. I would gladly return the favor for your band or dj act. If you have some distinctive soundscape in your area and can record in it (a French rail station, an Italian cafe, a British field, or whatever) that would be the best. The thing I plan on doing tonight is getting a receptionist or nurse at one of the local hospitals to say this for me with ten seconds of ambient hospital sounds on either side. Ok, I ate my sandwich. Back to scraping paint. Institute for Psychic Reform Change your Mind www.psychicreform.com

Cydonia/Soulseek/early electronica
by Alan Evil 20 Nov '02

Am I the only Orb fan that loved Cydonia? I especially loved the leaked demo version (I thought it was sequenced better and some of the mixes were more interesting...) I got off of Napster right before it died. (A moment of silence for the best file sharing service ever...) Cydonia's radically different from all that came before it but I don't think that's a bad thing. I just thought I'd fish for opinions on this album. It's weak in places but still has more than its fair share of brilliance. And I'll be at my local record store buying the next one that comes out without hearing it, probably. And I'm completely enamored of the Thursday Tea-time shows as well (thanks you guys!). One or two days a month I walk all day putting flyers under doors for my contracting company and they're such a treat. So are the fabulous live shows... gush gush gush. Which brings me to Soulseek. I haven't had a lot of success with this program. The searches are very slow and often don't work at all. The program itself seems to malfunction quite often. Of course, that could be my computer but it still blows. I tried Win-MX but it's very complicated. Just when I started to figure out Audiogalaxy it went south. I used to run Kazaa-lite but it's so variable. Frankly I feel something like the CR ftp is the best all around. The users' taste in music is so fabulous and I've learned of a bunch of artists I probably never would've. It'll be sorely missed. If any of you have advice on making Soulseek work well or lists of users (can you search for individuals like Napster? I can't figure that out with Win-MX) or stuff like that, please post them. And kudos to everyone who contributed to the three word thread! That absolutely made my day! Institute for Psychic Reform Change your Mind www.psychicreform.com

People have mentioned Walter/Wendy Carlos' "Sonic Seasonings" as a groundbreaking ambient work. I've yet to hear it though I have many other Carlos recordings.

If you own >some, have any copies, or know of any sounds on the web of his stuff, >please give me a holler off the list. You can get all of those soundtracks on Soulseek. I say this on-list because Edward Artemiev is to dark and formless ambient what Raymond Scott is to techno--a unsung pioneer. Anything he was writing in the 1970s for movies easily gives more recent artists a good run for their money. More people really should know about him.
