1hr 30mins - What would YOU play?
I know we have a similar thread on here where people are guessing what Orbital will play at the Big Chill but i was wondering what would YOU play if you was in Phil and Paul's shoes (not at the same time of course). You have have 1 hour 30 minutes to entertain the crowd so what do you play....
p.s. this is just for fun !

Re: 1hr 30mins - What would YOU play?
Nothing Left pts 1&2
Ska'd for life blended into
A mashup of Madness and me by Longrange and Patchwork Guilt by Paul.... take note Mr Hartnolls.
You Lot (stronger bass though)
Illuminate (12" version with the rolf Harris style percussion)
Impact blended into
Remind
Satan (acoustic version), performed by special guests John Williams (classical guitarist not the composer) and that deaf lady that is an amazing percussionist. For the more chilled chillers.
Belfast (reworked for 09) blended into
Dwr Budr special 20 minute reworking epic blended into
Chime 09... back with the original drum loop at the start with added handclaps (I love those claps at the begining), then branching off into a breaksy beat a' la Stanton Warriors still played slightly faster but with more emphasis on the 303.
Thats what I would do.

Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

Still banging on about that similarity... face it Dave you're wrong.davemacfrombath wrote:in no particular order...

The Halcyon idea is great though. I def think the Darkness should be substituted for something else, and I like the idea of it being that tune.

Hmm...not sure. Is a nice idea if it works....memly wrote:Still banging on about that similarity... face it Dave you're wrong.davemacfrombath wrote:in no particular order...

Re: 1hr 30mins - What would YOU play?
I would say:
Lush definately. (Would be great to hear this live again. Lush 3 going into Eurotunnel again.)
Midnight (would be a great track for Big Chill - unsure of the likelyhood of it being programmed though)
Nothing Left (a nice compact version)
Funny Break (Normal version amped up a little or the Plump DJs mix..now that would be good fun)
Chime (but yes early or middle of the set and maybe mutate the last half into Chime Crime)
The Box (Vocal Version- get Goldfrapp to sing the lyrics or a female singer..this would rock)
Impact (maybe backwards round again like the 99 tour)
Halcyon (without The Darkness)
Belfast (beefy 2001 intro version)
Illuminate (Orbital 12"/Live version)
Remind
You Lot
I would drop Doctor?, Satan and TGWTSIHH.
Tracks i would love to hear but they probably have little chance of making it:
Walk Now
Forever
Way Out
Oolaa

Re: 1hr 30mins - What would YOU play?
You know...it's a flipping 4 day festival...why can't they give Orbital 2 hours?
I know that'd mean Phil & Paul would have to programme 3 more tracks but still...
Who votes for 2 hours?

Re: 1hr 30mins - What would YOU play?
I would have....
Know where to run
Lush
Halcyon (Bring back Belinda)
Forever
The Box (with a live dulcimer player)
Attached
Midnight
Waving not drowning
P.E.T.R.O.L.
Transient
Planet of the Shapes
One perfect sunrise
Beezlebeat
That's about 90 mins.
I hear what you're saying Badger about 2 hrs. but I still think it's too short for the headline act. The last band on the Sat night of a festival? They aren't there just to look pretty. Give 'em their head and allow them on for as long as they want.

Drop SATAN? are you mad Badger
Sounds great and visually stunning live!
"High Rise" for the old tunes. I think Sid will agree with me on that one. It will never happen

Evelyn Glennie... I remembered her name.
I dont think you'll get much argument not to have 2 hour set around here badger.
Maybe if we can find out on whos before we can sabotage their set...
