Appreciation

Had Orbus Terarrum on rotation again and even after god knows how many times it still amazes me. Specially less talked about songs like White river junction and Occidental. The complexity of layering, sampling and fx is so well done. Sample loops etc are very hard to ID, and also swamped in FX of course. Kris probably used the AMS 1580S 220 Flange extensively. It reminds me of how well this album was done and also how the Orb has changed since then.

Happy Happy Joy Joy USA Support Acts?

Allo! I was lucky to have seen Orb on the Happy Happy Joy Joy Tour of the USA in San Francisco as a young teenager. Simply awesome of course.

My question is about the support act that was playing in the lobby of the Warfield. It was a a bunch of live jamming, with visuals and mindblowing fun.

This was set up in the lobby where anyone could stand right next to one of the many stations while they jammed the f out. DJ Lewis played on the main stage as the warm up (dropped blue calx over some tidy beats!) .

Anyone have any info on this is much appreciated. :-)
