...just saw this was coming out soon on Malicious Damage:
http://www.discogs.com/release/735648
Has anyone heard the Japanese release? Nice to see Patterson and Cauty
working together on a new project. I liked the last few Orb releases
(Bicycles & Tricycles and the Orb on Kompakt,) which are very different from
one another, so I have no clue where Patterson will go next! Kind of
exciting.
Sound clips would be nice.
In case anyone's interested, here's the blurb from the distributor:
"Take a mix of the founding members of Ambient House, whose revolutionary
music changed the lives of a generation, put them together with A-list
musicians and programmers and throw in a pinch of comedian for good measure
and what do you get? A kaleidoscopic banquet of anthems that makes dance
music exciting and ambient again. That's what. Alex Paterson (The Orb:
sonics, samplers, sequencers), Jimmy Cauty (KLF), Guy Pratt (long-standing
post-Waters Pink Floyd bassist: bass, guitars, percussion, Indian flute,
vocals) and Dom Beken (The Orb programmer/producer: programming, keys, drums
and percussion, bass, guitars, harmonica, shouting) all met up and created
this album. With a history of ignoring convention and changing musical
expectations, this collective proved irresistible to guests such as Johnny
Marr (ex-Smiths) and Simon Day (The Fast Show) and they happened to be in
the vicinity at the time too, which helped!"
Hmm... Pink Floyd-guy (on indian flute, no less!,) Johnny Marr... Should I
be afraid?!?
Francis.
