By the way Small point about slug dub I made 22 mixes of slug dub in different styles in one day I left the band shortly afterwards because of an oscillating waveform The mixes were stolen off me and edited in THE most shit way By thomas and andy probably alex was asleep under the desk Totally not like I was gonna do it.. Couldn't be fucked to sue em They can have it There was also one track that I left in the studio That was fuck all to do with them I mean they didn't even write it! I wrote it on my own! So they took it changed it around a bit Put some really bland shit on it And released it as their own and gave me a small percentage of it Cant remember what the name of it is now But fuck it Let me explain something about alex He is a blood sucker of the music industry Just like youth and all those people They do the fuckin minimum And let everyone else do the work Because of his publishing deal He has to get 80% of the songs Which means even if someone writes a whole song And puts it on an orb album They only get 20% because of alex On top of that - alex does fuck all And claims all the other royalties He has just paid out to other orb members For 10 years of publishing He kept the money for ten years And forgot to do anything about it Until chrysalis realised they could have about 20 law suits on their hands And even then e couldn't be fucked to do anything about it So go lick his ass and tell him how great he is.. Actually it might not be 80 might be 60 But you can imagine peoples frustration If after writing a song with lyrics etc That he had nothing to do with How he then claims part of the percentage for them This is the real story of the orb Everyone moaning behind the scenes Fucked off with it Thinking hes fucking mad as a hatter Despairing - what a fucking escape! I suppose they must have a laugh sometimes.. Ok that's it - actually to be more accurate That's not even half of the negligence I'll write a book on it laters... I'm gonna have coffee now I think you all get a better idea now Sort of explains why I get fucked off sometimes Scuse the language -- )) (( c[_] bLiP www.justablip.co.uk -----Original Message----- From: orb-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:orb-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Simon Sent: 19 June 2003 11:34 To: What were the skies like when you were young?

remix the entire bicycles and tricycles album and post the tracks on your website...they at least could get no worse. i've just been listening to slug dub and these nostalgic memories make me sad that alex got lazy(er).
This would presume that he actually cared enough in the first place. Which, as anyone should know by now, he doesn't. Bless him. :) ta, Kurrel Voronovich Kookyovsky _______________________________________________ Orb mailing list Orb@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orb
