Wow, listening closely to Orblivion's "Molten Love" again.. Keeps amazing me.. That's what i loved about the old orb, the polyrythmical thing in there.

ripped MP3 CDs only sound better with yellow highliter, but only if the average datarate is 128KBs, VBR MP3 collections cannot be improved by any color, you need a pyramid on top of the CD player, preferably made of nickel. -----Original Message----- From: Dave and Ros [mailto:daverosbooth@rogers.com] Sent: Saturday, June 2, 2007 03:38 PM To: ''What were the skies like when you were young?''

I never heard of it. Particularly: will ripped mp3?s be improved with green ink? Orblivion is an absolute classic. It still sounds ahead of its time to me, even now. My only complaint is that 4 minute gap in 72?why? Same complaint with the Oxbow Lakes hidden-track mix on UFOff. I never got that hidden track thing. At least now I can edit out the blank space on mp3s? I think there is less music floating around before the album release now because there is less time between completion and release. Recall the good ol? Island days when the Orb would record an album and have it canned for two years?as in Cydonia. At least now the album gets done and then released. Done ranting. Thanks for listening. And thanks all for all the emails lately!

Back in the early days of cds, Discwasher was selling little rubber sleeves that fit around the outside edge of a cd. It was supposed to stabilize the cd (extra weight at the edge) so it would play back more faithfully. I don't think you can still buy those. Maybe because they make little to no difference.
