ORBITAL - WONKY It's Here!

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.

So tempted but just had an email saying my 2CD version has been despatched from Play today.

It would feel like cheating to give in so close to it arriving :mrgreen:

I was just about to post it :P
So, Let's have a discussion! opinions please.

My favs so far is New france. I don't care what everybody says... The vocals are awesome, and the sound is really fresh.
Wonky... not so much. I could do without those vocals.

the rest of the album is quite nice as well. Haven't given it all as much time as the single of course.. Stringy Acid is nice for the classic sounds. Beelzedub is funny, but maybe a bit over the top for an album track. I can imagine it will be like a hammer in the face played live (In a good way, if possible). Rest of the songs need more time I guess.

Looking forward to seeing them live 13th of april in Amsterdam.
better fix my lights.

It's totally legal. the website belongs to a dutch broadcast company. they have playlist with all kinds of new albums that keeps on changing. It's streaming only, so no download. And I'm pretty sure the record labels aprove of this :)

To be honest, i'm not sure if it is legal or illegal but i dont want to risk the closure of the forums by allowing it. Hope you understand :)

is a legit site and the 3voor12 side is their music arm - they've been doing stuff for years on the music side including putting on live shows, releasing cds, exclusive live sessions and streaming/hyping albums and the like. They follow label/artist guidelines right down to sometimes allowing streaming in only certain sales regions etc

I know of them from my obsessive following of Goldfrapp as Alison was part of their MOONDIVE collaborations shows back in 1999 with people like Doug Wimbush.

I'd say that having that link on here will do you no harm at all, though I absolutely understand you not wanting to take a risk if you're not sure.

I really do think, first listens should be nice, loud and clear versions. Streamed are so compressed and for me, it spoils the initial first listen.

No problem - I wasn't so much trying to sway you into putting it back on (I'm being good and waiting for my CD to arrive) but more in case you were worried about the link being used. Just wanted to put your mind at rest.
