It's where it all started for me. They were there at the same pioneering time as some of our favourite IDM artists, but on a different front (Progressive House / Techno). Of course now I'm a Warp-bitch, but every now and then I venture back to the artists that got me involved in the the whole electronica scene. How do some of you feel about them? Am I crazy for still loving these guys? |

leftism is cool, same with all underworld albums, and you cannot believe it but i ordered the orb's "adventures to the ultraworld" one week ago and i am sure i will love it :) fsol lifeforms is also an album i wanna check, especially because i don't like dead cities, very much. speaking of the multiple posting of catharsis: i think it was not planned to do so, but the site was not loading and he thought he should better click again to "post" and so he did several times. phob could remove the other unneccesary topics. |

orbital are on my top favourites and top played underworld I need to get the old albums |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and I e got leftism and rythm and stealth by leftfield both great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they all had it and they all lost it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Are all good imo, especially underword and fsol imo. leftfield are good too (i have stealth and rythm) while i need to know better orbital. |
||||||||

Orbital definitely. The others I don't listen to much. Never really listened to Underworld to be honest. |
||||||||
|

Sorry about the multiple posts. It doesn't happen to me very often. |

FSOL = my favourite band by squillions of miles to the extent that I'm in contact with the band. Orbital = my favourite band before FSOL. First CD I ever bought was The Box EP, when I was only 11. Underworld = one of my favourite bands. When they're great, I love them as much as Orbital and FSOL, but they can be patchy, and some of their material I don't like. Leftfield = meh. Never got into them, for some reason. Orb = don't like. Chemical Brothers = overrated as fuck. |
||||||||

11? that makes you considerably younger than me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

fsol = yes orbital = yes leftfield = really liked the first lp, not so much the 2nd the orb = some good tracks.. esp blue room underworld = quite liked a couple of early tunes. but dont think much of them at all. chemical bros = eh?.. as my friend would say 'fucking charlatans' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes indeed. I was 11 when I got into Orbital and Underworld and 12 when I got into FSOL... back in 1996. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They're all good bands, nothing wrong with liking them. Most people would consider FSOL as part of the early days of "idm", there were only really a few really clubby tracks like Papa New Guinea by them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
AND Papua New Guinea is the greatest dance track ever made. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the beauty of papua new guinea is that, although it was used as a dancefloor track.. its just as much an ambient piece. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Orbital "In Sides" - marvellous! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nobody ever really classes Orbital as IDM, but after having listened to their albums for the last 7 days or so, I'd say they fit the genre bill. Nobody likes the Orb eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Orbital "altogether" is kinda shitty. Sold my copy. |

Um, I reckon Underworld are one of the coolest dance acts ever. Big, loud and british. And songs like Pearls Girl and Rez are awesome. Leftfield are rad, and if they and Chemical Brothers had a fight, Leftfield would use their 'rhythmn' to perform some 'stealth' moves and...ew...sorry, I'm out of ideas. Yeah, needless to say...Leftfield are rad. I mean, Chris Cunningham did the Afrika Shox video! Orbital are cool, too. People need to have more fun with music these days, these guys have been having fun for ages. My views, not the law. |

Shit, sorry about that. My computer went haywire and I thought it froze on me. Obviously not. Sorry again. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
its fucking dreadful. the medicine8 remix of illuminate is quite good though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the time these bands were getting big was a really good time for british music in general. blur, oasis, pulp, suede just as amazing as underworld, orbital et al but similarly they've lost it now. why hasn't anyone mentioned the prodigy yet? |
||||||||

Fairly flimsy collection for a person who claimed to be an occasional Orbital listener, hey Nacmat?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have'nt you got the layo & bushwhacka remixes of funny break yet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, you almost hate them, i see |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not yet I ve been crazy spending on other artists |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ooh, Prodigy, yes. They were good for a couple of albums. And then there's The Fat of the Land. |
||||||||
|
|

prodigy, orbital, leftfield, underworld (in no partcular order). it started around '96 and continues even now. later came aphex and other idm artists. newxt prodigy album will be *hopefully* out this summer, liam said to be fallen in love with properllerheads' reason software. i'm curious to hear how the new tracks will sound. |
||||||||
|
|

started the exact same place with me... thats where i got to like electronic music.. still love them all. |
||||||||
|
|

|

Geee...I almost thought that my topic may have sparked interest. Nope....just carbon copies of the same post. |

Fluke and Orbital were my favorite before I started seriously getting into IDM. Even after I was heavily into Aphex Twin and Autechre, I was still listening to these two.. mainly Fluke. I didn't really get into Underworld until later. |

dubnobasswithmyheadman second toughest... everything everything I bought these three for 23 euros altogether today and I already had beaoucup fish |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oooh, now I never got into Fluke, but always wanted to. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the guy from fluke is now in a pop trance group called syntax |
||||||||

ha, this is a coincedence... just went into a local shop last night before going to see "21 Grams", and picked up In Sides by Orbital, my first Oribtal CD... I have been thinking about buying this album for years, but I never did, so it was just a planned musical whim, I guess. Haven't really listened to it yet. Is it good? |
||||||||

*Orbital* |

if you like old school idm you will love it its not idm really, but its a must have for an electronic music fan |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, well I remember hearing The Girl With The Sun In Her Head years ago, it was one of those pieces of music that just make you realise how much good music there is in the world.... And i said to myself, "I'll definitely go buy this album someday", but for some reason I never did. Now I have it! Should be a good listen.... apparently Snivilisation is really good too... |
||||||||
|
|

orbital are excellent except for their last album maybe |
