hey all,
talking about William Orbit (and the fact the "Pieces In A Modern Style") is
a re-release, there was a time about, what, 5 years ago when some major
label thought he was the next big thing, as far as i could work out, and
distributed his own label/sublabel - there were about 3 or 4 releases on it,
I think..
..ah, ok, just did a bunch of digging, his label was called N-Gram, and was
put out via WEA. Didn't catch on, but interesting to spot "She Cries Your
Name" from the now pretty big (and Orbit's
gf at the time) Beth Orton on one of the albums. There was a lot
of UK musicmag publicity at the time, but I guess the albums never
sold too well.. some of the stuff is quite good tho, especially
the Strange Cargo.
"Pieces In A Modern Style" was withdrawn at the last minute from
the original release, it says here (
http://www.williamorbit.com - great
site!) cos of copyright problems with one of the artists
(Gorecki?). It was originally by artist name 'The Electric
Chamber'.
talking of Orbit (ok, this is a bit more non-idm), i didn't realise his
association with Madonna went back as far as 1990, when he remixed
"Justify My Love". I thought theirs was a new collaboration. Well, you live
and learn ;)
regards,
h0l.
