Ok...was--or was not--the UFOff compilation released as a double cd set in the U.S.??? I just called Island Records on Friday, and asked...the guy there told me it had not been released, and that plans were still "up in the air".... Did I miss something? (Wise cracks keep to yourselves!) ;-) Also, does anyone have a spare copy of Eno's _Music for Films_ or _Apollo_ floating around? Or Mike Oldfield's _Amorok_? I know these are still in print, but I'm too broke (or cheap--you decide) to shell out $$$ for a new copy...and I owe someone big time. I don't have anything too terribly rare to trade (since these are not too rare), but I have plenty of other junk.... ;-) Basically, someone did me a VERY kind favor (burned copies of some out-of-print electronic music for which I'd been searching for years), and said I didn't have to repay him...but I insisted, and he said that he was looking for those three albums Come to think of it...how bout this: if anyone can get me ALL THREE (used...or new), I'll part with my 2cd UFOrb with the Blue Room single.... (Remember, this particular item is out-of- print...whereas the Eno & Oldfield titles are still available....) Anyone? Anyone? Or is this a ridiculous offer? ;-) Later!

I bought the Fireman CD, Rushes. I would recommend it highly (wink, wink) to anyone who loves excellent chill out music that appears heavily, very heavily, influenced by drugs. One of the best CDs I've bought for ages. Did I mention drugs? Anyways, from looking on the net it seems that Paul McCartney is the Fireman, as reported by someone on the list a few months back, and Youth was involved in some way. One thing though. On the back of the CD, on the the top right corner beside the bar code and upside down there is a little symbol in a square that says above the symbol: bjork. Does anyone on the list know anything about this little mystery? Once again, I recommend this CD very highly.

I bought the first record the day it came out. The first recording is good. This is f**king amazing record. I just found it the other day for 6.99 used as a UK promo. It was also sealed just to gloat a little more. anyway........To bring up the Irreisistable Force record thread that it was the album the Orb hasn't made in 4 years. I don't agree that the Orb haven't made a good record in 4 years but I would be so bold to say that "Rushes" is the best electronica record since 'Orbus'!!!!!!!!! I love this record. The music speaks so well to "me". It seems so personal for McCartney to make this record right after the death of the most important woman in his life. This is a record that should be heard. I filled in for my friends radio show on saturday and played the whole thing. I hope you find it as well. I can't comment on the Bjork reference. ???????? I have no idea what that's about.

What is it called? And what is it like? Skidoo here, Are you asking about the first or the second album? Well I guess the first. The first album is called "Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest" It has 9 tracks and all songs are a different mix of the title track. It's beaty in places but trance is it's game. Lots of loops and cycles. What I get from the record is that Mccartney completely recorded the title track and then had Youth come in and make other 'takes' on the piece. The other 8 songs are just remixed from the pieces of the title track. Good record but it's not 'Rushes'. 'Rushes' is so much better than the first recording. More dynamic!! More atmosphere!!!!!

I listened to "Music Is Rotted One Note". Is any of their other stuff more mellow?? I've been having a hard time finding Boards of Canada (kind of ironic I thought as I'm in Canada :-)), Brainpilot, and Trans4M. Any thoughts??
