Wonder if they'll subsequently do the Brown Album?
― groovypanda, Friday, 13 October 2023 11:57 (five months ago) link
guessing this is gonna coincide with vinyl re-releases of all their old albums
― frogbs, Friday, 13 October 2023 13:33 (five months ago) link
Hopefully. They did say last year that they had some new licensing deal that was going to see all of their catalogue end up on streaming services but there's been no sign of that yet. Think it's only Chime and Radiccio of their early singles that are available atm

from the newsletter:
'I’ve always been sceptical about going back but when we thought about playing the Green album live I rolled the idea around for a bit, how could this work? The way we perform is always free and full of improvisation in production and arrangements. This approach will give us a chance to take these fabulous old tracks, written by young versions of ourselves, and perform them with a modern sensibility.Intrigued, I gathered all the original gear, set it up and switched on…As I dusted off the old floppy discs, samplers and an Atari ST computer (Google it), I discovered the ghost of my past in the machine. It was like collaborating with my 22 year-old self. As the songs broke free from their original form, it quickly became clear that I really did want to take these songs on the road, many of which have never been played before. We love playing live, the most exciting thing is to take a whole bunch of music we haven’t played before and discover how to play it, to see how people respond to it and shape it as we go along together. To play the Green album live will be a wholly new experience for us and you, it’ll be a bit of an adventure. This will be new territory that I can’t wait to explore. As the saying goes...“There is the theory of the möbius, a twist in the fabric of space where time becomes a loop, and when we reach that point, what ever happened will happen again.” That time, it would appear, is now.'Paul Hartnoll

No shit that's really awesome! Hope this makes it to the US
― octobeard, Friday, 13 October 2023 17:37 (five months ago) link
Yeah same here! Still have never been fortunate enough to see them.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 13 October 2023 20:12 (five months ago) link
I was fortunate to see them around 92 when they had the tower set up in the middle of the floor and the headlights and Belinda Carlisle/Bon Jovi drops. And also a few times at Glastonbury. Saw them again on the Wonky tour and, suffice to say, they were no longer the only bald people in the room

vinyl reissues finally happening:
https://orbital.tmstor.es/#main_menu
so far it's just Green but they say the rest are coming. track list looks different...what is "Macro Head"??
― frogbs, Tuesday, 23 January 2024 14:35 (two months ago) link
Macro Head was on the original vinyl releasehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj42b9M1fXI
― groovypanda, Tuesday, 23 January 2024 18:38 (two months ago) link
oh god the screaming!!!
actually come to think of it I haven't heard "Steel Cube Idolatry" or "High Rise" either, though I know they were on the UK release. glad to see "Belfast" is at the end...for whatever reason the US version puts it as track #1, which is very bizarre
wonder if future reissues are gonna have bonuses too - imagine a 4xLP In Sides with full versions of The Box & the Times Fly EP, plus "The Saint" ? oh hell yeah
― frogbs, Tuesday, 23 January 2024 18:50 (two months ago) link
looks like the Green/Brown show is coming to Chicago? I might have to make the drive for that, dunno how many chances I'm gonna get to see them
― frogbs, Friday, 26 January 2024 21:08 (two months ago) link
Only just found out they're including Brown and delighted having already a ticket for the London show
― nashwan, Friday, 26 January 2024 21:13 (two months ago) link
Oof gotta shell out for this. Can't remember the last time they were here and don't know when they'll be back again.

I couldn't really afford the Bristol ticket but once I saw Brown was included that was it.
― you can see me from westbury white horse, Saturday, 27 January 2024 04:40 (two months ago) link
but... there's only one "Green & Brown set" on this list? Everything else is still the Green tour?
https://orbitalofficial.com/live/
― StanM, Saturday, 27 January 2024 13:21 (two months ago) link
The UK dates are all Green/Brown.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 27 January 2024 13:39 (two months ago) link
No chance I'm gonna get to see them this tour but I might be the rare Orbital fan who wouldn't be excited at all to see them do Green. Brown on the other hand...
― Vinnie, Saturday, 27 January 2024 18:34 (two months ago) link
I'd take a Snivilisation show for its 30th anniversary while we're at it.
― nashwan, Saturday, 27 January 2024 19:21 (two months ago) link
okay who's going to the Chicago show? apparently it's not gonna be a Green/Brown show which is fine by me, they have killer tracks throughout their catalogue
― frogbs, Monday, 19 February 2024 19:02 (one month ago) link
I am in for Chicago! Looking forward to it.
― Psychocandy Apple Grey (Pyschocandles), Monday, 19 February 2024 19:38 (one month ago) link
Just noticed that the remastered version of the Chime 12" is out today on streaming services
Hope that means we'll start to see their other singles appearing soon, as was mentioned in that interview a couple of years ago
― groovypanda, Friday, 23 February 2024 18:29 (one month ago) link
this one? that was only last year
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TXmdXF1FIY
― StanM, Friday, 23 February 2024 19:29 (one month ago) link
No, it was from an interview back in 2021 when they were talking about the new deal they'd signed
