Here's a brief review of the Orbital / Mikey P gig last night; (Glasgow Barrowlands) : don't expect track names or equipment lists - I'm not sure! Mike P's set was great; he played some Jake Slazenger stuff but most of it was weird junglistic stuff, one of which was over a slowed-down track off Tango 'n' Vectif. Best by far though, was a well smart track from Bluff Limbo which went down well. In the break they played Kraftwerk & (just before Orbital came on) a James Bond theme (don't know which one, but it was great coming out of the bass bins!) Orbital's set was O.K., I'm not a great fan of their latest stuff (apparently they played most of in-sides & several mixes of The Box : to me it all sounded a bit repetitive & slow) but the best bits were the obligatory ones : Halcyon with the now-legendary Belinda Carlisle break, Satan, stuff off the Brown album and Chime! Hopefully Greggy-303-meister will give you all the correct transcription, but for now if you can catch this tour do, and make sure you give the support some support!
