Green Album and Brown Album (1st two) were viewed as being pretty influential, though they were always viewed as a little more ravey / festivaly than straight Bedroom Listening Warp stuff. I think they gradually lost relevance from Snivilization on. Planet of the Shapes is still an outright banger though. thanks, Jeffrey J Davis xxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx www.jeffreyjdavis.com 218.833.2847 On Fri, Aug 19, 2016 at 2:03 PM, Chris Taylor <xxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx> wrote: > IDMers - share your insight: > > How, historically, did Orbital fit in with the Warp Records/IDM thing?
