Orbital - Classic or Dud?

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.

Remastered (and expanded) version of the III EP out today

have they changed their mind? I can't seem to find it & their site's been down all day

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.
