From time to time I have come to rely on the 'orbulletins' mailling list to inform me of all new orb related releases.
I haven't received one in a long time, although I cannot remember if I am still on the list or not, so what I want to know is; are they still being sent? Where is everyone receiving the latest orb news? I've only just heard of the apparently forth coming Back to mine release which im assuming has something to do with the orb - but its a shame their web presence is so minimal - is there a secret on the net that I'm missing? Some one put me out of my misery and tell me!!! Love to all, Lee.
Well, you're not alone - there haven't been any Orbulletins for a long time, so here's the news as I remember it! - Badorb, the Orb's record label, released 14 12" singles by various artists - some included members of the Orb on them, and some didn't - check out www.badorb.com for release details, or Rachel's discography at http://www.migoto.com/orb/ - They also released a compilation album called 'Bless You' on Badorb in Japan, the US, and the UK - all with slightly different tracklistings on them - Badorb ceased to operate late last year, so chances of finding anything bar 'Bless You' minimal. - There have been a couple of remixes by LX & co for (apart from the BadOrb releases) - more info at Rachel's discography at http://www.migoto.com/orb/etc.html, although there have been more mixes by Ayumi Hamasaki, etc - again, check Rachel's discog for more info: - Compilation album called 'East Of The River Ganges' in 2001 - features 4 tracks co-written by LX & Youth - The Unknown Ghosts album called 'Transfer At Dub' in 2002 - features 3 tracks co-written by LX - Meat Beat Manifesto album called 'RUOK?' in 2002 - features LX on one of the tracks - There is a new Orb track called 'Dilmun' on a compilation album called 'Pop Ambient 2003' on Kompakt Records (KOMPAKT CD 22) and to be released: - New Orb 12" single, 'Kompassion' out on Kompakt records (KOMPAKT 073) - available to order via http://www.kompakt-net.de/ for 8,20 Euros.

- They also released a compilation album called 'Bless You' on Badorb in Japan, the US, and the UK - all with slightly different tracklistings on them
Is the US Bless you different from the other two ? I have the Japanese one (without Ayu's track) and the UK one (with Ayu's track).
