||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

They are kind of like "SYSTEM ENGAGE MIND DRUG LSD. *cue acid techno sequence*" dee-dee-lee-dee-lee-dee (doo-tch-tch-t-t-ch-doo-doo) |
||||||||
|
|

It's like club music very highly polished un tsh un tsh un tsh un tsh un tsh |

Orbital - Green album - atmospheric early house / techno, I like it but younger peeps will find it too dated Brown album - classic very atmospheric technoey(?) I say 10/10 Snivilisation - more "IDM", very good In Sides - IDMey, maybe not quite as interesting as Sniv. The rest - not great, tho Satan is good... I saw their latest DVD and it was pretty boring. |

I haven't heard the "Blue" album yet, I'm going to wait till it's released, but the Hartnolls said they were going to return to their old style a la the green album, so it should be of no surprise that it's more club friendly. It's probably straight-up late 80's-early 90's esque Techno. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
is anyone going to actually buy this "album"? hell no Im not. .. |
||||||||

WHEN THE LEFT TRACK STARTS THEN THE FUN STARTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|

I've just heard the first track and it's not all that bad....I think... Orbital have always been riding a fine line. On one side of that line is cheese (fromage) and on the other, some of the best electronica ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm definatly buying this thing. they have never disappointed me, and i've never understood this "gone down hill since In Sides" thing people talk of. its like sasquatch to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
orbital is furry, blurry, and from canada? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... what the fuck happened after in sides? i once read they invested lots of money to buy a completely new studio surrounding after that album. maybe they shouldn´t have done. in sides is one of the best arranged electronic albums i´ve ever heard in my life. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like this album. So I don't know what some of you are on about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
excellent "comeback". im sure theyll both go on making music seperately after this. |
||||||||
|
|

this is just another thread same discussion since middle of nowhere |

"Unraveled DNA and at the same time youre cultivating bacteria strong enough to kill every living thing. Do you think you are ready for that much power. You lot ? You lot? Cheeky b**tards. You're running around science like kids with guns." :D They haven't lost their keen ear for cracking samples, that's for sure. :D |

The stuff they released after insides didn't really have any magic for me but i still have a massive amount of respect for them. As i have been a fan for nearly ten years i never once got bored of the first four albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've only heard the first 3 or 4 tracks so far, and yes, i'm dissapointed, too :-( wtf happened? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think its excellent. well done orbital. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will check it out of course because i always do with them. |
||||||||
|
|

I need to buy octane and the blue one I have 20 orbital cds |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nacmat the blue album is great it has many styles starting from the green album get it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes about all that album is good for is a retrospective for new fans and old fogeys. .. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listened to it two times. total crap, but i´m not disappointed for orbital have been crappy since middle of nowhere. regarding the quality of the arrangements there´s no real parallel to the green album btw... uninspired. that´s it. |

hey...you copy n pasted my sig :p |

that last reply was for DaWeeze :p |

Sorry. It was too good to pass up... |
||||||||
|

i didnt like insides very much.. i loved everything before it. i thought middle of nowhere had some very good moments.. specially the Stlye versions/mixes on the cd5"s. they've never been a favorite group of mine, but ive always held a level of respect for them up there alongside the likes of 808state, the orb, etc... possibly even kraftwerk as far as techno and techno experiments go. The brown album confused the fuck outta me when it came out... i loved it, turned me on my ear compared to other electronic music i was listening to at the time. ...where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop......where time becomes a loop... |

I have liked everything Orbital has put out so far... except this... No inspiration at all, can't even call it highly polished club music, the melodies aren't of the caliber that they had before. Just cutting a lot of corners from their previous albums. Where's the love? The songs have a heavy feel of the same heavy clu'b thumpers that the Saint theme did, but without the amazing melodic work. I mean don't get me wrong, there are some really cool things happening in most of the songs, and I could definitly see these working in clubs or on a soundtrack, but I can't listen to them for the sake of listening to them I went through the entire album looking for one song I'd say... well... this makes up for the rest of it, since it is their last album and all... but I couldn't find one. Ouch. I think playing these tracks live the way they screw with the loops would make it a good performance, but not in CD format |

i just listened to all my orbital cds the other day.. good stuff. i haven't heard the new one yet, though. |
||||||||
|
|

i hate it and it's crap |
||||||||

Picked it up this weekend. Have only heard it once, but was not too impressed. A couple songs were okay though. |
||||||||
|

the green and brown albums are awesome. tunes like belfast, chime & the box blew me away when i first heard them. haven't had a chance to give the blue album a proper listen yet. this seems to outline what i anticipate happening when i listen to this album. if it is a return to the sounds of old, then it's not going to do anything new. But, if it's their swansong, then it's going to be a far more retrospective experience anyway. we shouldn't forget how good they are at what they do. i only caught the tailend of their farewell glastonbury set on tv. it looked and sounded great though. sad to see them go. but better to end a career when it feels right than to force it. |

Fucking LOVE it. I'm not getting the hatred. The Altogether was uninspired, cheesy pap. This is hardly an absolute masterpiece, but it's a league above that, surely? Anyway, I think this could well become my third favourite Orbital album after In Sides and Brown. To be fair, Acid Pants is appalling, but I truly love all the other tracks. Transient is one of the most beautiful things they've done, You Lot is a fantastic example of their great sampling skills, Bath Time and Easy Serv show they are capable of doing light hearted songs without them ending up cheap and novelty (like The Altogether was), Pants and Tunnel Vision are wonderful Orbital style club-ish tracks, and Lost is one of the most beautiful things I've heard from the guys. One Perfect Sunrise does sound a little like they're trying too hard to recreate Belfast/Halcyon/The Girl With The Sun In Her Head, but it's a nice track all the same. But yeah. I really, really like this album. |
