dude. i can't wait. the Orb/KLF were my entry point into "edgy electronic
dance" (some call it IDM) and i think that if any groups influence shows
up in my own stuff it's the orb... i love the combination of
astro/science and humor on Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld ... that album
will always be in my permanent top ten just for the psychological bond i
have with it...
no other "idm" style band utilizes humor in the same way as the Orb ...
mouse on mars does a bit, squarepusher maybe a little, aphex too, but i
used to laugh myself to shivvering stoner fragments listening to U.F.Orb
and that prank phone call...
"when marcus garvey does come in, would you tell him that haile sellassie
phoned, and will meet him at Babylon and ting"
fnord!
