I think it is, but many dont seem to think so |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think for me it's when you know the music is techno, but it can't be classified well into groups. Even though it may be drill and bass, it's different than the other musicians in the category. |
||||||||

yeah i was tghinking techno also, they try real hard to have conventional songs, they are not idiot dorks that just throw shit together, slap minimalistic artowork on thier cds ad call it good NNNNAAAACCCCMMMMAAAATTTT--do you have snivilization ? want it ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Until The Altogether I would have said that they were ... somehow they seem to me to me the kind of band that knew their stuff back in the day when they made the masterpiece trilogy of "The Brown Album - Snivilization - In Sides". But now they seem to be content just hashing out orbital-by-numbers tunes. But the older stuff is still some dope shit. |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like orbital, they are still freaking my head.. if i say that idm stands for intelligent dance music, then i would say that orbital is idm., |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

|
mine too, but very close to brown album I am now listening to satan live cd2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you have to use the term "Intellegent DANCE Music" then I would say yeah they are........by definition anyway. Orbital owns BTW. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
magazines record shops and buyers who neded to create a new (smug as fuck) genre created the term idm - it was realyjust areaction to tired hardcore around 93 ish - unfortunatley the idm genre is more purposeless boring and confused than hardcore ever ws so i wouldn't worry about it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Does it matter wether or not one could label orbital as IDM? I don't really care for labels whatsoever, they're only convenient to describe something to someone who hasn't heard it yet, but with IDM you still are left clueless as it's a real varied genre. |

nac, creo que mereces el premio de reivindicador oficial de orbital... (cosa que no se decir en ingles, sorry) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
lol... si, la verdad es que soy de los que mas les nombran, pero es que me gustan mucho, son sencillos pero buenos. |

I truly truly hate when I'm explaining what kind of music I listen to. I've chopped myself down to sayin I listen to "instrumental electronic" because if I say techno they think "ooo the repetive rave shit" or if I say IDM they think "eh?".....ah well next time I'll just say I listen to "REAL music." :) |

no le hagas ni puto caso es un perdedor que no hace mas que quejarse todo el dia por todo. ademas aqui la gente habla en el idioma que le da la gana. me encantaria hablar contigo en catalan, pero no se... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|

hahaha ok ya me lo habia parecido por otros posts... ademas, su avatar ya lo dice todo sobre él... hahaha, nac, ets un cabronà s, com tho fas per ser tan simpà tic sempre? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahahaha, gracias nac... a mi, no se pq, me da especial morbo el acento de una basca hablando castellano... tema aparte: anybody knows why i cannot upload a new avatar? its the correct size (60x80 and 12 mb) and i the computer says everything its ok, but the image doesnt change... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I had that problem too... its something about the cookies... but no idea really... ask tune when you said basca you meant a girl from the vasc country or basca as a bunch of people? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i mean basque country girls in general (specially if they are beautiful...)... dont know why, surely because i know one that its... |

have no idea whether orbital classify as idm...dont care neither...i like some of their music and that is awesome! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just call it ALL techno! Keeps it nice and simple. :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nacho, if you want orbital to be IDM, they're IDM. i saw a kid on here call godspeed you! black emperor IDM a few weeks ago, so i guess anything goes. now if you want my opinion on what makes something IDM--a very loose and poor description for a type of music--all you have to do is . it's explained in thorough detail. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I really can't classify them, and no I don't mind genres all that much, order is good. In-Sides I would think qualifies as that, but the Brown Album was more Trancier while the Green album was straight up early 90's techno. I never knew what genre to stick them into other than the broad "electronic" category. I can't even classify my favorite group :[ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the artists have to be intellectual dancers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Orbital doesn't really fit anywhere in any genre; their ideas come from a plethora of sources. Pigeon-holing them is nigh impossible given their body of work... |
||||||||
|

|
industrialised dog masturbation? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nah, I was thinking more "incidental donkey manure"... ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how about "ingenius donkey mother" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

oh man i just love orbital, they're like, the classic of electronic music... i think their albums should be divided into 3 categories: 1. TrancyHavoc-like - the albums not fast or hardcore but which make you think of trance or something like that 2. Marple - the albums that are not too mellow but bring to mind. 3. Nebula - albums which are SOOO fucked up, so just buy them and listen to them NOW |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
1. "Green" and "Brown" 2. Snivilisation and The Altogether 3. InSides and The Middle of Nowhere That's pretty much what you're saying? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats just the way I think of them and what is amazing is that the three groups are represented in a row: brown snivilisation insides what a trilogy!!! (this is an idea taken from somewhere in the mb) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, in my mind, I've always figured that Orbital was one of the groups that initiated the whole intelligent dance music thing... and then Aphex Twin, and all these guys were lumped in there too... but I've read lots of stuff calling Orbitals music intelligent dance music, so I figured this type of music, and any other dance group like orbital, were the ones who really sparked the whole thing... |
