In todays age of the digital medium reigning supreme, the term _7" mix_ often simply means _radio edit_ It's a shorter version of the original song (usually) that is a little radio friendly. The 12" mix would be almost the same as the 7" mix but at least 1 or 2 minutes longer (often times more). At least that is how I percieve it.. - -b # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Mar 1999 12:53:20 +0100 From: Wouter Bessels Subject: (orb) For Sale: U.F.

I can see >radio stations saying "that's the single 7" mix" when playing the promo. >Any other guesses? basically - yes. the 7" versions are the radio/video versions, even though relatively few releases are issued as ACTUAL 7" singles nowadays. this is due in part to the the fact that record companies make more money from cd than from vinyl, and partly due to all the multi-formatting bullshit in the late 80's/early 90's. at its worst, iron maiden had a single out in SEVENTEEN different formats. the number of formats allowed to qualify for the official charts in the uk was cut to 4 in the early 1990s, and then down to 3 a couple of years ago. so - most releases are 2xcd and 12" vinyl (but not all). however, the rules are now REALLY stupid in the uk. no single is allowed to last more than 20 minutes in total (including all tracks), or have more than three tracks. break either of these rules and your release is ineligible for the charts. yet more record company bullshit. they say it's to save artists having to come up with too many tracks for b-sides. most people know that it's just to rip them off... :-< l8rs. - --- Smiley spares list: http://come.to/SmileyWeb # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info orb" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email orb@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Mar 1999 18:42:36 +0100 From: "muzelic7" Subject: (orb) Re: Modulations / Sonic Acts hi, Having had the time to reconsider - yes Modulation is a wortwhile watch. both inspiring and "face-wise." I feel a bit daft because of my mail, but the responses were all good so i guess everythings cool. AND i really just wanted to pass the word on another film called Sonic Acts, which is a little more serious on the subject of developing electronic music. Featuring artists like Stockhausen, Dj Spooky and Squarepusher - and letting the viewer in on their creative spirits far deeper than Modualtion had time for - Sonic Acts is recommended both for the humour and depth.

I was talking about this pinball game with another list member, and thought I'd bring it to the attention to everybody. In 1981, Bally made a game called Centaur. At that time, it was one of the cutting edge games that helped define pinball as an arcade staple. The reason I post this on the Orb list is because one of the game's features was the "Orb Feature". The multi-ball mode on the game was accheived by completing the O,R,B,S targets to enable a ball lock. Once all balls were locked, the game would announce (in a Speak And Spell-ish voice) "Release Power Orbs", thus starting multiball play. Now this game has long been out of circulation, but I did see it in a game room in the Wisconsin Dells last summer. I'm sure there's still quite a few out in pinball resale shops and basements across the U.S. Kind of a strech for an Orb tie-in, but I think this is just another interesting thread I can start (Oh how I love Pinball!)

The Peel session they did was blinding and that got released on CD a couple of months ago. Unfortunately they left one of the tracks off, resulting in only a 3 track release (either to adhere to new CIN rules or the band thought the other track was wank) New LP coming soon though, said to be "different".
