Re: Oooo new site
sorry, wedding anniversary so thought it was wise to not come on here 
lol.
That link kinda of explains it all. It's all as far as i know so far and to be honest, the more things go on the more i think i wont be getting involved. Their management are now showing interest in everything i basically created which i've got no problem with but they also seem to want to take it all over. I'm basically watching from the cheap seats to see where they are going before i decide if i'm calling for a taxi. All the early signs are a bit worrying tbh.... 1 year ago i wouldnt have posted something like this but i just need to air my thoughts just in case things disappear
p.s. my daughter took that photo when she was 7

Re: Oooo new site
Ah for fuck's sake.
Steve, I hope it doesn't come to that. 'Twould be a place I'm not sure I'd want to visit if it were Loopzorbital in name only. If it was you offering it to them 'coz you wanted to step back for your own reasons and they were willing to take it over possibly but it sounds like a hostile take-over is in the offing.
If for no other reason that 'coz of the work you have done keeping here going over the years I really hope it stays with yourself at the helm.

Re: Oooo new site
YOOOOU'VE BROKED IT!!!
Lopez you must be congratulated for single handedly flying the Orbital flag for soooooo many years
so many hours of my life have been wonderfully wasted due to the input from this website and never once did I think that would ever change
(well except for Torontogate but lets not go there, dark dark days)
Jeez I vividly recall TEN YEARS AGO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ouch
sitting here and hitting F5 every minute waiting to see who was gonna say what,
ahh all those hazy hazy yahoo parties !
Long may it continue
the ideas you were outlining sound awesome
I really hope the powers that be back off and support you to allow it all to come to fruition
No One expected another slice of the Orbital pie, lets not allow so many great memories and times be tainted,
New studio BLOGS how fu*king exciting is that,
This place will start running fever pitch if that level of interaction is achieved
and surely that can only mean EVERYONE wins
Lets have another Halcyon Loopz year

Re: Oooo new site
I have to echo everything Legspin and Kagey said.
You've been an essential part of informing us about everything Orbital for years and it would be a shame if that was to change.
Your hard work is appreciated.

Re: Oooo new site
Pete Claar's comment post is wonderful! He somehow seems to have summed up all the thoughts I had in my head but wasn't able to put down in words - both with questions about the writing process / map... And about the beautiful, transcendental quality of Orbital's music (I know exactly what he means about the end of 'Out There Somewhere'). It's really nice that he got namechecked in the video!
Really enjoying these video blogs. Hope to see more from them over the coming months. Thanks Loopz, for all your hard work on this site!

Re: Oooo new site
looking smooth loopz!
haven't been really active on here lately, but seeing the news and the happenings that are coming, I'm guessing there will be a lot more action here
Hope you get to keep running the orbital forums, had a lot of fun over here the last years.

Not much more to add to that! This forum has formed frienships and changed lives of a lot of people I now know. This would not have been achieved without all your hard work Steve.
