Phil is his sounding board, Paul bounces ideas off him. Phil gets quite annoyed when people bring this up though, I've seen some quite awkward interviews. In terms of the live show, it's live sequenced so Paul triggers off segments and fiddles with the synths settings and what not. Phil usually messes with the mix from what i can tell, whacking on delays and the likes. Someone correct me if wrong. Live I think Paul orchestrates and Phil manipulates. Paul decides what parts are being played and when and Phil changes the way the parts sound via all the synths and stuff.

I believe the Chems have a similar balance too but they seems to be more predetermined than Orbital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny, not sure i mentioned on here, but when I talked to them, I found Phil to be really chatty and lovely and Paul was fine but conversation was more difficult with him.

I've politely shaken both of their hands when I've walked past them at festivals. I think Phil gave me a hug thrown in. Phil was a tiny festival (Bloom) the day before he was performing, which I thought spoke well of him. Paul was watching Goldie's classical show with (presumably) his daughter. He was very polite and said thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were some police officers dancers on the speakers at the time but didn’t want to want a pic of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Tim's Twitter party on Thurs at 9pm is Orbital's Brown Album. They're doing In Sides at a later date too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my first introductions to dance music. I’ll always remember it fondly. Particularly the person chucking a million glow sticks into the crowd. Magic.

Half of it is available in individual clips. Hoping someone catches it while it's available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirjonnyp Posted June 26, 2020 Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 That set was fantastic. People thought I was bonkers for missing Stevie, but it was worth it. Weirdly enough I skipped Stevie again for Orbital again at Bestival a few years later. That one wasn't so worth it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little torn over that split but it was first Glasto they played since they returned so I had too go and I'm bloody glad I did.

I skipped Stevie for Orbital at Glastonbury, but I saw both of them at Bestival. Did you not enjoy the Bestival set? Absolutely loved it myself. Seeing Stevie before was just sublime as well.
