Guest margaret thatcher Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 alright lads, i've been busy with work, uploading the bloody demos now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I've never really got Pomme Fritz, I know it got slated on release and I can kinda see why as it seems to meander all over the shop from start to end. Although I do enjoy the stupidity of the last track.... Pomme Fritz is highly underrated imo. It's a full on EP though, with the first track getting you started bang, the next two tracks being the mindfuck parts and then "Bang'er'N Chips" and "Alles Ist Schoen" chilling you out. Just when you think you're safe - "His Immortal Logness" fucks you up all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEK Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 my first listen to this album right now. i'm on plateau, it's very good. this reminds me of fsol, i suppose it came out around the same time though huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest margaret thatcher Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 yeah everyone seems to love orbus terrarum, which is fair enough because it's fantastic. it's probably my favourite orb release too. though all the tracks are good, I love that bit in Montagne D'or (Der Gute Berg) where the drums finally come in towards the end. absolutely amazing. drums by big paul ferguson from killing joke, if i remember correctly.

springymajig Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I think Valley and Plateau are completely different to the rest of the album... those are the main sorta ambient tracks, then the rest is sort of weird psychedelic... Thanks Margret Thatcher, downloading now. Also, Pomme Fritz is good when you're in the mood for it. Which isn't often but if you feel like having your brain implode and then rested on a lovely cloud of marshmellow it's perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubin Farr Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 40 minute blue room, u.f.orb, terrarum, adventures beyond the ultraworld... early orb kicks ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purlieu Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 God, that 40 minute Blue Room is marvellous. Why weren't more singles like that? FSOL did a bunch and Orbital's The Box single was good too. Fuck remixes and b-sides, I want long morphing 40 minute soundscapes for singles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redruth Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 (edited) that 40 minute Blue Room is marvellous. u.f.orb is sensational. timeless and untouchable http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggdZb-0dsP0&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjrSbIqdaic&feature=related Edited May 29, 2010 by troon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest margaret thatcher Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 lx and thrash 'fell asleep' in the studio while jah wobble was laying down the basslines for blue room. how they ever got anything done, i have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronchuseven Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I was watching a late-night sci-fi movie a while back and heard a line that was instantly familiar: it began with "you speak directly to me.. we are inseparable within time..." The sample comes from The Brain Eaters, a pretty average "brain bug" movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hanratty Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 i remember back in the day Orbus Terrarum went very very well with an intense mushroom trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Greg Reason Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Yeah I do think this is the best Orb album. Fucking wonderful heady trip of a record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow U Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 this was my first orb album and it's still my favorite, quite a nice surprise to buy it blindly based on the cover This is basically my story too. I found a used copy of this version in a local CD shop back in 2000 or so, and bought it just because of the rad artwork. Upon going home, smoking up and pressing play, my mind couldn't handle it. To this day I still hear new things in the mix! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mellow U Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Had to bump this just to say I finally nabbed this on double vinyl with the super cool map and all that. So stoked. Oh and MARGE - Those Trekroner sets have been in HEAVY ROTATION ever since you made me aware of em. It's been a deep Orb summer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capsaicin Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 I loled with joy when I found out the record store I work at has 7 copies of orbus terrarum in the backstock (which is a lot for an electronic-music-deficit city). Mellow, I'm really jealous. How much was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest margaret thatcher Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 yeah, the vinyl version of orbus terrarum is wonderful. great for a sunday afternoon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zazen Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 I got this when it came out in 1995, but it never really through to me. I'll check it out again. for me, the best Orb album is "FFWD -> FFWD", although its not really the Orb, but Dr Alex and Fehlmann are involved, same as Orbus Terrarvm (FFWD = Robert Fripp, Thomas Fehlmann, Kris Weston, and Dr. Alex Paterson.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cd2n9Y6yFl0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redruth Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 (edited) ffwd is wonderful - i never new robert fripp did a project with the orb - fascinating Edited July 12, 2010 by troon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
