Lemmiwinks Posted February 13, 2009 Posted February 13, 2009 discogs link 1 Omen (7") (4:12) 2 Omen (12") (6:59) 3 Open Mind (5:29) Yet another one of those border territory EPs. The main influence is acid house but still you can clearly hear trance influences which is why I decided to review it here. The main melody hook is quite catchy and has been playing in my mind for weeks now The Best track here is the 12" version of Omen. Open Mind is pretty crappy IMO... Quote

I am sorry to say Lemmiwinks, your mini reviews really are crappy! They say absolutely NOTHING about the record at hand. Quote
Lemmiwinks Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 I am sorry to say Lemmiwinks, your mini reviews really are crappy! They say absolutely NOTHING about the record at hand. hummm well reviewing EPs isn't easy cause you're basically reviewing only one track in 3 or 4 different versions... For me an old EP review is more a matter of shedding some light on some forgotten act that still sounds good today cause after all in these days you can easily do a search on youtube and hear the track for yourself rather than take my description for granted. But I will try to do better next time Of course, you are welcome to add your inputs as well Quote
acid being Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Listening to it now here: https://orbitalofficial.bandcamp.com/album/omen-remastered with an extra 3 tracks. It's OK but in my opinion In Sides is by far Orbital's trippiest release and makes me wonder what they would have made if they ever crossed over fully into the psy scene. Not that they needed to - I am quite sure they must have made a lot more money doing what they did. I do wonder what the Hartnolls think of Goa and psytrance though, whether they would like any of it or not. Quote
