This has to be one of the best songs ever made, who agrees with me? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I totally agree, it's absolutly beautiful... this is actually one of the tracks which first got me into the world of electronic music, it's one of my all time favorites |

I also like the original, 'It's a fine day' by Opus III. The vocals are beautiful. -P |

I really like the first three minutes, definately my favorite orbital track. I love especially hearing it at the end of mortal kombat, when all those monk kids run out of the temples with the flags...=) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Definitly one of the best songs ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love that track, prolly my favorite one by orbital too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Cool song, I love the vocals in the songs, so mellow and beautiful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

This is my favorite Orbital song along with "Belfast." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm listening to the song right now and i think it kind of sucks. oh wait, some more stuff just kicked in...yeah, it sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's the perfect outdoor summer song. I love the bon jovi/ belinda carlisle samples hehe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a great track to listen to while flying in an airplane, or relaxing on a sunny beach, or under the influnce of LSD, etc, etc, etc |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, Belfast kicks ass as well!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what album is belfast from? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a pretty early cut, I have it on a compilation disc, I think it showed up on the first American album, which was just a collection of singles, if I recall... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm downloading it right now... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Belfast is from their first album, Orbital I... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i get chills just thinking of halcyon anyone ever see the video?...its kinda odd... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Words cannot begin to explain the beauty of this song |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, Halcyon was the song that attracted me to electronic music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...The song isn't _that_ great, kiddos. It's good, but I think some of you are just suckered in because of how pretty it sounds... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It may not be that complex, if thats what you mean, but ohhhhhhhhh... it makes me melt! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that song is amzing live. orbital is the best live. its the greatest experience |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Great track, especially the live version with the samples. When you tell others of the samples it sounds awful but it works well. When I hear it it makes me depressed at how crap they've gone. Has anyone seen the video for the Box? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

My favourite Orbital track. Brilliant driving music. I need to go for an early morning drive to the waterfront with this playing on ym stereo methinks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where was I when this thread was started? i dont know but I should have posted here long ago huge track |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
remind is better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There is history behind this beautiful track - Halcyon+on+on is name of drug medicine - the history is that their mother was addicted from this drug |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
belfast is equally good |
||||||||
|
|

my friend Darren claims it to be the soundtrack to his life. |

fecking terrif track mate Loved it always |

Halycon On + On The Girl With The Sun In Here Head Chime The three tracks that got me interested in music when I was a couple of years old. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes very good. Orbital were at their peak around the time this came out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I desperatly want to see them live! Paco - all this time i never it was a sample from another song! I don't know if it ruins all the specialness from halcyon....no wait, it doesn't. That song by opus 3 is awesome also. No song compares to halcyon! Time to watch my mortal kombat dvd... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only just realised that was where the sample came from- this is an example of good sampling- when you like both the source and sampling track and don't realise for ages and when you do you still really like both tracks :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ceri - yeah man, very well done. You know what I was thinking about....with artists getting more and more "experimental" music really isn't what it used to be. Look at this song for example, breautiful, easy to listen to, fun, etc etc. Is that not cool anymore to make pretty songs? I don't understand why we must evolve into "noise" and other stuff of the sorts. If i'm not making sense let me know because I have a good idea in my head but it's hard to put it into words. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the box is a good track, too, and a good video. i remember seeing that ages ago on mtv and thinking it was pretty cool before i was into electronica at all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
best orbital track = box parts 1-4 not part 1, not part 4, parts 1-4; it's a ~25 min track with stuff you don't hear when the songs are split apart. it's elite cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also take that ep as one track of 25 minutes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Orbital are best when they get all "epic" like that... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boc make pretty songs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cool song..(and yeah the sample really does make it...) The original by OPUS III was a big hit here in the UK (think it got to No 1 in the pop charts) but was a little sickly sweet & fluffy for me.... Namewise it really does capture that Halcyon tranquilliser feeling... I think Chime is probably my favourite song of Orbitals although I haven't heard much beyond the first 2-3 albums... I did like that Are We Here track; their attempt at some kind of proto-jungle.... |

Halcyon on + on makes me go on & on |
