Woo hoo!
Got my cd copy of Bless You today - NOT from BadOrb, I might add, but rather my fairy Godmother. First off, the packaging is *so* exquisite that I found it hard to believe it was actually a badorb product! :-P Seriously, though, its a lovely greyscale booklet with all the critters next to the appropriate tracklisting. (I'll get a scan up on my site tomorrow sometime, in case anyone's interested.)
I've always liked BadOrb's design...their "generic" sleeve is better than most "regular" sleeves.
And the cd is most excellent! I know its contrary to how most of you feel out there, but a cd is so liberating compared to vinyl! I mean, I can listen to it anywhere! Yeehaw! I have renewed enthusiasm for the music now!
Yeah; I prefer CD too...I always thought that limiting themselves to 12"s was a mistake.
The Cool Harbour track (by the Orb) is superb, and was included in LX's dj set when he came through SF last time (IIRC, which I don't always do) - its a groovy little tune which chugs along like a rhythmic train!
Heh. There is a glaring error in the tracklisting though...it claims that Multiverse - Puffin In Paradise is used, but track 8 is actually Tokyo Invaders. Oops. Too bad, since PIP is one of the best tracks BadOrb has released. :/
(BTW, I sent a pretty blunt email to sales@badorb.com expressing some of my frustration yesterday.)
Go you. :) Chris
