Q

I
am an unsigned artist myself, I noticed when I was on the Official
Website of Orbital that I had just missed out on the 2000 Remix
Competition. Will there be any future competitions and how do
I go about entering ?
|
A
|
Yes
there will be but not until after the new album is released (early
2001). I decided to take a year off as last years competition
nearly killed me :)

Q |
When
did you start making the Loopz zine (paper and internet) ? Why
did you start ?

(Answered
10/10/98) I decided on constructing the website to spread up-to-date
News for Orbital. The official site (Rise) was terrible for News
updates. BBS mailing was the only communcation i was actively
doing prior to the website , i had to make the jump and get the
name Orbital on everyones lips. The Paper zine was created as
another avenue to spread the Orbital news...but i was also able
to offer the service of fan feedback directly to Orbital. As for
the start date...i am guessing at about late 1995 for the website.
It was based in Hong Kong and i had only 100K to play with. The
idea of the paper zine and its first issue was around the In Sides
tour...May 1995.

(Answered
10/10/98) A very very hard question to answer. Each album has
its unique highlights for me. I think i would say the latest sound
of Orbital appeals to me - In Sides has always took a lot of my
time up. But my first Orbital album - Green Album - would also
be a joint favourite.
(Answered 10/10/98) Singles/Eps - Again , there is so many to
choose from and so many that i adore. "Choice" was one of the
first Orbital tracks to really hit home, "Raddicio Ep" i also
adored not so much for "Halcyon" but "Sunday" and "The Naked and
the Dead". I loved the "III EP" - "LC1" was played to death that
year. I also think that the "Satan Live Eps" were an absolute
must for anyone who wants an example of live Orbital. You will
never get the FULL live experience from them...but go and play
"Impact" from the "Satan Live Eps" Play it very very LOUD. Excellent.
