Yeah saw that. Have still got.all the Trance Europe Express CDs but think I only had the first Volume one
― groovypanda, Friday, 19 April 2024 15:37 (five months ago) link
is there a standalone vinyl release for this?
― frogbs, Friday, 19 April 2024 16:29 (five months ago) link
double vinyl yeshttps://orbital.tmstor.es/
― StanM, Friday, 19 April 2024 16:31 (five months ago) link
oh cool, wonder if US distributors will carry this, as shipping to America is probably gonna be as much as the album itself
wonder if the rest of the catalogue is getting this kind of treatment, I mean imagine a 4xLP In Sides with Times Fly and The Saint and the full version of The Box. I'd buy that for a dollar.
― frogbs, Friday, 19 April 2024 16:33 (five months ago) link
Ok. How the fuck have I never heard this Belfast/Wasted track before!?
Ha, I was just thinking about it randomly the other day. (Got the Volume CDs as they came out, as much as I could.)

Remastered Green album out today. 6 hours (!) across 5 discs!
where are you seeing 5 disks? there are 4 CD and 4 LP editions.
and now they are offering "Green Album Expanded Digital Download" for £34.99 which basically adds 12 remixes, and i've got an email offering £5 off (after spending over a hundred on the CD/LP editions), while you can get the exact same thing on bandcamp for €20.
i'm totally okay with supporting orbital, but with the limited drops / shipping cost to canada and this kind of "promotions" it really feels like a cash grab.

As you've mentioned the Bandcamp option:

Performance of those first two albums last night in London as great as you'd expect (one v minor criticism would be perhaps it was a bit too by the book at times where you might expect a little longer versions of 'Chime', 'Impact' and 'Belfast' otherwise). A few of the Brown tracks ('Impact', 'Remind' and 'Halcyon' really seemed to have extra layers or textures in them I picked up on anew). Really enjoyed hearing some particular tracks for my first time ever live ('Midnight', 'Walk Now', 'Monday'). 'Satan' visuals in the encore threw in some shots of Liz Truss and Theresa May for lols and right at the end they did get particularly animated about needing a revolution.

Visible for me but these slow chronological rollouts damn...still looking forward to seeing finally Times Fly and the Satan Live EPs.

ooooh! thanks for the links

Finally saw them live in April after 28 years, almost to the day since I bought In Sides. They were great. Green was good but Brown was fucking magnificent.

digging through the remasters to remake / update my own "digital box set"...
I think the only notable exclusion is the remix of Open Mind from Funky Alternatives Six?
(notable especially because they did include various multiple radio edits and a 1999 Sasha remix)
...unless the "Chime (edit)" is actually an edit, and not a relabelling of the original 7" re-recording? Someone with better-tuned ears might confirm this.
and it's curious that they included demos The Other One and Open Mind Jam but not the Belfast Original Jam that Paul soundclouded alongside The Other One
BUT here's a fun discovery: any version of Son Of Chime was previously only available on an issue of Live At The Brain (1990)... but five years ago the bloke who ran The Brain club put out another compilation on Mixmag -- and included the same live recording of Son Of Chime, but secretly expanded to include Chime at the start as well.
― bae (sic), Sunday, 16 June 2024 20:00 (three months ago) link
The Chime 7" was credited as an edit on original release, and the waveforms look the same (except WAY more compressed/boosted on this version than the Work master, and sped up by 3 seconds) so this one's in the clear.
2024 remaster highlighted at bottom, 2002 Work master above, a little bit of the 1990 CD5 at top.https://i.ibb.co/BnLDwx9/chimes.jpg

Belfast Original Jam that Paul soundclouded
and blogged about! The Other One was even on the same demo tape that they left with David Holmer, which led to (eventually) both tracks' names.
in more historical excavation, they have done a new remix of Cafe del Mar...
― bae (sic), Wednesday, 19 June 2024 00:59 (three months ago) link
i seem to recall seeing somewhere they never used compression in their production.. not surprising they did it for the remasters but a bit disappointing
