ooops, just thought of another one... ....on my Global Communication "Maiden Voyage promo, it claims to have mixes by Michael Brook, The Grid and The Jedi Knights.... .....but the accompanying press release says (something like) "....with a mix by the Jedi Knights (aka The Orb)". The actual mix doesn't sound very Orb-y, but it doesn't sound very Jedi-y either.... ________________________________________________________ "My taste runs more to petite little things who sneer a lot and wear make-up stained Prada, and whose idea of an exercise regime is to scrape a blade across a mirror and pour another tequila..."

Just read this and it has probably been answered already, but I will add my bit. On the promo of Maiden Voyage a mix was credited to Jedi Knights, but when the full release can out the same mix was credited to Link and E621... (Che should be thanked for that snippet)...

And that the final seconds of the mix on the single were salvaged from an unreleased Orb mix that did not meet Pritchard & Middleton's approval, if I remember the story right.
