I must admit that if i want to listen to a nice orb live set, i dig out a recorded one from 92-93 or so. These were lovely and inventive (not just play a 12"single on stage..). I am not critisizing here, cause i know it is not easy to setup something that can be as good as 15 years ago. Times change, bands change, music scene changes... And: budget changes.. gr, R Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 11:16:34 +0100From: mariuschan@btopenworld.comTo: orb@mailman.xmission.comSubject: Re: [Orb] The Orb Live at Roubaix, la condition publique Saturday 22, 2007The Orb R.I.P.Jean Christophe DERRIEN <derrien@club-internet.fr> wrote: Me and my wife went this week end to the NAME festival in Roubaix, North of France.It's a festival in an old factory with three large stages.The sound was really good in the beginning of the event and there were some fun stuff to do (like strange video games and such...)The Orb did a live set at midnight after a live set by Petter (which was pretty good).I didn't see or recognize Youth, but Fil was there as a roadie, and Tim Bran as his sidekick with the Corpral singing from time to time.I didn't really like this live set. Why ? Because Tim Bran asked to the sound guys to put the volume as up as possible. Some people went away because of that.And it made the tracks almost painful to hear (thank god I had earplugs).The Petter live had a really good sound, The Orb hadn't.Here's the tracklisting (I don't have The Dream yet, but I wasn't impressed by the new unknown tracks).1. A huge (dance mix) / From a distance2. Towers of dub3. New Track4. Outlands (the new uptempo version)5. New Track6. It's Alright (Sterling Void) / Little Fluffy Clouds7. Little Fluffy Clouds (Danny Tenaglia mix)8. New cool track9. Perpetual Dawn10. Blue Room11. New track12. FreebirdThe tracks 7 and 12 were clearly not live.I might sound like an old guy, but I really miss the magic. The old tracks were not really done well. No flow, no ambient intros.I miss Andy Hughes and the 1996-1997 live sets, when it was really dreamy AND drum n bass AND spacey.I miss OOBE, long versions of Blue Room, Terminus...I hope the next live sets will be better, but I'm not sure I will be there.JC_______________________________________________Orb mailing listOrb@mailman.xmission.comhttp://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/orbReport list abuse to list-abuse at studio-nibble.com Yahoo!
