>Okay, > >tatstes may differ. But in the whole I think Orbital is an OK-band. They >have a majority of really good kicking tracks, and live they always know >how to put up a show. >"The siant" was - according to me - their worst track ever, but it probably > made a lot of people dive into the other Orbital stuff. >their "Satan" triple CD-singles were great. > >And hey if even they aren't allowed to make a more or less "poppy" >commercial track, what with the likes of Prodigy and Chemical Bros. then. >Both of them started of well but have now fallen into commercial-heaven >where they seem to like it, but their tunes have become utter shite. > >Orbital OK, the others: well....rather not. >Met vriendelijke groeten, >With kind regards, > > >Bart De Maertelaere >Webmaster United Callers > i have been deleting all these orbital post because i think one detail has not been mentioned yet. imho, i think some of the list members have forgotten why the 'saint' track came out. ummm, for the movie itself. bare in mind that the movie is a "spy flick", hence the "spy" theme in the 'saint' track. if you are a lover of james bond and the 50's and 60's spy music, why do you hate the 'saint'. it the same damn thing only its more orbitalized (excuse the term). so what if it is not a great track. i like it. yeah so maybe orbital and some of these other groups are being commercialized. but who are we to judge that. if we like it, we buy it. if not, we don't. also... the hartnolls are not like any other group that we discuss on the list. they have their own sound just like rdj has his. so on and so on. you piss on them because they start to take another path or try different stuff. i like everything orbital has released. some may not, whatever. one last thing... i try not to be mind set on a certain sound or a certain style. scott ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
