The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

Xtal is nice. and ageispolis is great for subwoover stresstesting..

that first song on SAW II is just beautifull enough to top SAW I :D

Cliffs is indeed awesome, but I find that most of the album is not as listenable than SAW I. I LOVE the early 90s sound of that one.

Selected Ambient Works 85-92. Although I do like SAW II but the first gets more plays.
