Customer Reviews
this is actually the full release not partial
i actually have the cd release not the download... regardless... a good collab / split cd between the orb and mbm, "matron" is a slight variation on the mbm track "horn of jerico" off of RUOK? . "1855bc" has the orb in the captain's seat steering the boat with hints of mbm and tino if memory serves me right? "insane" is probably my most fav track on this release. it's up for grabs as to who is at the mixing decks on that one.
waiting for the tour...
when is mbm & orb gonna do a tour together? 3 hour sets each!!!! and maybe they can mix into each other & jam. aww bliss 'cmon get on the road with youth it'll be great. start in sf! this is pretty great all around. in the stores it's a 20 dollar disc set. on itunes you get 20 minutes of orb/mbm for .99 cents. great!! well worth it!!!
Heavy on MBM and Light on The Orb
These are mixes of Meat Beat Manifesto songs. But honestly the big part of this album/ep seems written entirely by Jack Dangers. I felt kind of ripped off that this is billed as a collaboration when these tracks have appeared as songs on other albums released by MBM. Whatever Alex Patterson thinks he contributed to these songs, its not much, and I hope all the royalties go MBM's way. 1855 BC is probably the only track worth buying here, again, heavily influenced by Jack Dangers...more like Alex Patterson raided his sample library. Theres some interesting dub elements, but overall, pretty uninspiring since its reused bits and peices of albums released over the last 4 years.
