But a couple of years ago when The Orb are having there real problems with Big Life Alex told me in an interview that they had a couple of albums waiting. At that moment he talked about Pomme Fritz, Orbus and FFWD, and that was a couple of years back. Also a couple of months ago Andy told us on this list that the new album already was completed. In may he told us that they were mixing it and that the album should arrive in september. People asked him why it took so long and he answered something like the label deciding when it will be released. My point is that the new album (Orblivion?) already is waiting for us. IMO it's the decision of Island to release it in 1997. Maybe completely wrong... more food Nico > > > >(Divination "All you need is love" freeside@ix.netcom.com) >| Main WWW Page: http://www.smoky.org/~md/ | >| 0 | >| \||/ o | >| ( oO ) | >| (-) | > \___________________________________________________________/ > > ># Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? ># Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. > > # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Email majordomo@xmission.com with "info orb" in the message. ------------------------------ From: orbico@GlobalXS.nl (Nico Baars) Date: Wed, 7 Aug 1996 08:20:25 +0200 Subject: Re: Mixmag CD >Jean Christophe Derrien writes: >> Right now, in UK, you can buy two Mixmag CDs for 15 pounds (14$) !

For the first Peel Session's version of Backside, they just used the = rhythm track from Supernova.
