Orbital improvisations,playing live and screwing somethingup

Post by Kyblik »

can anyone write me down, what are main differences between Orbital playing live and other electronic bands 'playing live'??
i know that Orbital are improvising a lot and can screw it up sometimes as everybody heard in Brixton 24th in the middle of Remind :) thats realy nice 'addition'.

can anyone explain me how and what they push, pick, pull and so?? i have no idea how it works. do they have some sequecies and timing when to press this and that buttom or what??
thx and excuse my unknowledge :)

Orbital never 'screw it up', they have 'live features'. <finger wagging>

I hardly ever even notice the 'finger trouble' and, even when I do I soon forget about it.

You should consider them one of the boyz' many endearing characteristics.... <smiley face>

just found this which explains things, briefly, in laymen's terms.
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?
