So I got a copy of Orbsessions 2. I have a couple of cents to throw
into the pile.
I like that there are some songs from Cydonia and Bikes
and Trikes that have a resting place on here. I am glad that LX
changed some mixes as well. "Ralph's Cupboard" and "2026" are certainly up
there with the best Orb tracks ever. At least "2026" has a great new
ending, but "Ralph's Cupboard" feels like a center segment to a
larger, more ambient piece. I wish there was more lead up to the
sample on "2026", and "Ralph's Cupboard" starts AND ends too
quickly. I wish these songs were creepers, instead of so sudden.
Live mixes...live mixes...live mixes...anyone...anyone?
Also, about the
Trojan Jukebox. I think it's pretty well established amongst everyone here
that "Ambient-Dub" has always been their stronghold? I can't wait to
hear some of LX's favorite Trojan records...and finally Mad Orb sees some
light. Love it!!
Orby presseys all year - What will "The Dream"
hold?
Peace...
