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.
What are Phil's sets like? He is coming to Melbourne very soon, and Im wondering if I should go and see him play a gig. ?Im mostly interested in the type of music he plays.

P.S. Im too tired today to browse through the forum for review of his sets.
they're great, go see him.
any apparent problems with his mixing skills in the early days have supposedly been fixed, not that i ever cared (or indeed noticed, i may have been drunk ), and his tune selection has always been spot on. a good solid breaks set with the odd orbital classic chucked in for good measure.
Yeah his set at Fabric was a little shaky on the dj-ing skills but his tune selection was second to none...and you cant beat hearing lots of Orbital tunes in a club mixed with some cool breaks and his Longrange stuff....esp Dr Hoover...that tune rocks!
Enjoy mate!
"You know, just simple lines intertwining, you know, very much like - I'm really influenced by Mozart and Bach, and it's sort of in between those, really. It's like a Mach piece, really"
Nigel Tufnel talking about his song "Lick My Love Pump" - This Is Spinal Tap.
Only seen him DJ the once, but that was great. It obviously helps if your prone to some orbital classics and breaks.
