RSD was OK, I was only going for 7 items and 3 of them were delayed or cancelled so that was a bummer. Excited about the Clash, The Selecter and Ska 7" box set. I'll be ordering some UK items after 10 AM (PDT) as some UK shops start selling on-line after 6 PM their time. I have a few Orb downloads, but never listen to them. My decks are on the other end of the house and I don't listen to music on the computer or phone. I know, too old school. Our DJ collective is still basically vinyl only On Jul 17, 2021, at 2:32 AM, polar-sequence wrote:
Like Rachel said: we mostly hang out these days on Facebook, where also a number of Orb members past and present contribute from time to time https://www.facebook.com/groups/621986444582146
Re: Lazlo's discography: you might want to check out the Discogs page for The Orb, there's a number of fanatics (including myself) that try to keep the discography up to date https://www.discogs.com/artist/54286-The-Orb There IS a number of download only mixes alas, like you I prefer the physical releases but it's not always an option...
And good luck with your pursued RSD items!
Cheers Johan

After reading the book I've been trying to catch up on some of the Orb Remixes I didn't know about. Would love to see Lazlo's discography updated. That's what I've been working from, but it cuts off at 2000. I wasn't aware of many of the post 2000 remixes.
I'm a vinyl guy so always try and buy wax. Unfortunately some releases are on CD so go that route to have a physical copy. I don't do downloads so will never have those.
Thanks for the updates and your work on the book. Glad to see the list is still up and running. Have a great RSD. I'll be up at 1:45 to get in line, then later in the day will try and obtain items I want from the UK on-line.
Stay safe all!
Cheers

I think I fit into the category, both old and Orb collector 😊 First activity In the list for ages, glad to see it’s still working!
I haven’t read the book in full, slowly digesting it. Something meandering a bit too far by Kris, but overall a joy to read. Proud to say that I contributed to the book as well. My good friend Justin was asked to work on the discography section and we accomplished the task together under heavy time pressure (so it’s less accurate as we’d like it to be).
Other than that, The Orb has been rather productive when it comes to releases. I’ll give a quick summary by just posting the Discogs links here, happy to elaborate on any question 😊
