What's amazing to me about this video is how this guy can walk around and noodle on something...and make every one of these synths sound like orbital. I have some of these synths and none of them sound like orbital when I play them.
This man was partially responsible for producing the most perfect and best example of '90s Techno I've ever owned...I'm speaking of course of the "BROWN ALBUM", it has no equal. THANK YOU MR HARTNOLL
underworld - second toughest in the infants / dubnobass / beacoup fish, the prodigy - experience / music for the jilted generation, middle of nowhere (the orbital album), in sides (also the orbital album), exit planet dust by the chemical brothers, i could go on
Haha that would be me....but in the gak music shop in Brighton....... they stupidly put there moogs near the front doors .... I just cant resist walking by and going in ...and I'm sure the staff go ...shit it's that guy again haha..I'm like right I got 10mins ...when there is a shortage of time ... you gotta know what knob to grab first... Great fun those moogs...hate the prices tho
Hearing and seeing these guys late nite on tv was a big part growing up in the 90s, dialing into unknown BBS's as "The Box" played on 'AMP' in the background. An incredibly huge influence alongside The Orb, Underworld, Prodigy, Fluke, Meat Beat Manifesto, etc. Made British music cool again.
I have a very similar studio set up, it has laminate flooring and the walls are painted white. I don't have any of the synths though and possess one lacie drive. I also have a MacBook running Ableton Live, so close...very close.
When i listen Orbital i think directly >> WipeOut on PlayStation One (PSX), an epic frenzy inertness sci-fi battle racing game ! It was in 1995/96 and strangely I feel like it was yesterday ! Great guy, great band, great gear, and great game(s) !
+ Eric Parisot Indeed! I believe you're referring to Wipeout 2097, phenomenal soundtrack! WE HAVE EXPLOSIVE! I played about 5 videogames in my life, but being hypnotized for hours while playing Wipeout is one of my best memories of the 90s -and no, I don't need to "get a life", I've done plenty of outdoors, social things as well ;)
The original WipEout was 1 of the 8 original launch games of PSX (launched 29/09/95 in Europe). But Paul Hartnoll only contributed a single track, titled WipEout. The bulk of the tracks was created by CoLD SToRAGE, aka. Tim Wright, who also curated the soundtrack as a whole. WipEout 2097 came out the year after ('96), again the soundtrack was curated by CoLD SToRAGE, but was (in the PSX version) more dominated by big name contributions. Orbital did however not contribute to that soundtrack at all.
That gnarly riff @ 6:13... so smile-inducing! 🙌😁 So great to hear a variety of iconic riffs across this whole vid, it was where "I know which track this is from" after another!
Damn, last time I saw you Paul was in Jazzy M's shop, Vinyl Zone in 89' when I saw you hand that cassette tape you had of 'Chimes' to Mike and when he played it he smiled, then put it on loudspeaker and the punters in the shop, there hands went up signalling yeah I'll have a copy of that please... Good Times. 😁
7:20 take a look at the whiteboard to see re-recording scheduled for Halcyon, Chime, Belfast, Lush, Impact and Satan next year. Also remixes of Utah Saints, Aphex Twin, Chemical Brothers, Underworld, Leftfield, Prodigy, David Holmes and two others I can't quite make out. Should be an interesting album.
I find myself rewatching this video every few months just to listen to Paul be a boss and hear him getting orbital sounds out of everything from the humble bass station Ii through to the Jupiter 6. Legend.
That Putney MKI sounds amazing! It's like the soundtrack to Forbidden Planet! I'm seeing Paul and Phil at the Belasco in Los Angeles tomorrow! First time! SO EXCITED!
Orbital's road crew must be built like tanks and be as strong as oxes. No jumping in the back of a transit with the back line and guitar cases for Orbital. More like a small nation's military manoeuvre to unleash sonic warfare.
his analysis of the sound and character of each synth is spot on, like the jupiter 6 is more electric, the 8 more silky, the prophet x is surgical, the waldorf warm and fluffy, and the matrix brute aggressive..... exactly my experience as well. love the pitney, haven’t been able yo get that many dynamics out of it but totally agree about the power and. character. and the bass ration really is such a quality synth.... very flexible and full sound.
He didn't mention it in the video (probably because it's easily the most recognisable and no need to talk about it) but I love how worn and battered his 303 is.
Thanks for the tour, Paul. You probably don't remember me, but I was the longhaired dude who walked around with you at Lolapalooza '97. I was the friend of Manard's (singer in Tool). Keep on rockin' brother!
I love MBM. They inspired me to buy my first sampler. Coil? that's some fucked up shit. I respect it but find it a difficult listen most of the time.. I like the Windowpane Minimal Mix
Freehardy it’s okay Coil are not for everyone. They are my favorite band and I have from what I have seen the most rarest Coil collection in the world. Their main albums like Love’s Secret Domain, Horse Rotorvator, Scatology and Astral Disaster are actually very great, likeable mass appeal albums. But I agree Gold is the Metal and Stolen and Contaminated Songs are very psychedelic and difficult to digest at first.
one of my fav tracks of the 90s is the amazing "Fluffy Clouds"! the bass is damn hot since I used to play hard Seymour Duncan pickups and I wish I had that low bass line to play with!
"This is the sound we use in Impact..." that bit gave me proper goosebumps. I love how the tuning and everything on all the synths are pretty much instantly recognisable as Orbital.
This guy has brought me unmeasurable pleasure over the last 30 odd years that I’ve been clubbing and into electronic music. I think one day in the future. This generation and genre of music will get the respect it deserves.
Yesss. Bought my first JD-800 around 1993. Today I still have 2 of them (my number 3 and 4). Number 1 got stolen at some point, after a liveset. Number 2 was burned, together with the rest of my house, in 2014. JD-800 is the most versatile synthesizer I know, wonderful for playing live too.
The BS2 most definitely has a Roland-esq character to it. To me, it's the successor to the SH-101 that people have been saying they've wanted for years only it adds a lot more. I use it for my live shows too. Compact, lightweight and the patch recall makes it a no brainer. Not quite as much of a no-brainer as Jupiter for 200 but still. ;) I love these videos with Paul though. I never get tired of seeing one of my favorite musicians get geeked out about synths.
Hmm..yeah I don't agree with him there. The BS2 is a solid starter synth. The 101 sound is still special enough that I have it practically cloned in my sizeable eurorack modular system. Something special about that CEM 3340 VCO + OTA filter. As where the BS2 uses DCOs and more generic filters.
B1SCOOP what you smoking man! Sh2 sh9 roland system 100m etc. are all DISCRETE VCOs, I've owned and played some and own multiple discrete vco vintage OSc in eurorack. Modern DCOs sound about as much like them as Pizza Hut tastes like pizza does in Italy. You might be partially fooled because of the acid type filter in the BS2, but really it's apples and oranges..there are no modern synths that sound like 1970s discrete oscillators, they are as different as digital delays and tape delays. Even just a single 100m oscillator sounds huger than anything Novation has ever made. Frequency Central makes great clones, blows away these modern larger brands!
@@NickHchaos Well had you actual SH-2 unit on your hands? I've only saw demos on youtube, and my impression is, BSII was tuned to have similar character to SH-2, despite having different, more cust-cutting architecture.
The analogue stuff - even the newer stuff just has that SOUND that you can't emulate 100% successfully... Believe... I've tried for over 20 years I have tried! Even the Volca range I feel is woefully underrated.
Seems like a really nice guy, almost as if you wouldn’t be intimidated if you got a chance to hang out with him. He and his brother Phil’s music has sustained me for 30 years and continues to do so. As well as being technically brilliant, there is a real warmth to their music. Truly one of the greatest electro acts of all time.
@5:18 How he messed around for a sec and made that wobble bass and just stopped like it was nothing blew my mind. @6:16 That beat sounded dope. I like dudes music and chill way of explaining everything. He seems like he knows his stuff
the amount of planning and setup that must have gone in to allow a simple touch on the ipad to completely change between the tracks on all that gear must be insane. would love to know whats going on inside that ipad/s ableton setup for controlling that live set.. true master
Bass Station 2 is amazing value in a keyboard. I used to have the original rack and sold it years back but got a keyboard a couple years ago and it's so much fun, exactly how he described it. I noticed he's got 2 of them sitting right beside $10000 worth of new keyboards.
I have been a Metalhead since 1989, but also got into Electronica in the mid-late 90s, I love modern guitar pedals, I can do many of these sounds with a guitar!
Holy shit! You took the Macbeth on the road with you?? Did you keep a cadre of technicians on your retainer for your entire tours?? I hope you kept these modules packed tightly in weatherproof foam. Did they not have to warm up in cold situations at certain venues? What a high risk!
Man... that old synth he pulls out at 1:50 is insane. Those tones are beautifully frightening. Nice to see a Bass Station II on the rack! And !?3?! Novation Control XLs? Wow. What a setup.
I still remember reading a magazine interview Orbital did a long time ago where they said, they had almost completed this amazing track when (due to the heat where they were) the synth "just dumped" everything they had just been working on for hours. I wish I could find that magazine interview now! It must have been around 1990.
Interesting fact; the Moog's are a big family and both pronounciations are correct, depending on which branch you speak to. See, told you it was interesting...
Ehm, Beacuse, that level of prodigal KNOWLEDGE, isn’t simply uploaded to the mainstream databanks for anybody to the average bedroom wannabe producer. only high level initiates. Go Figure...
Took my 19 year old daughter to see Orbital last night and we mother and daughter raved the night away😊
Awesome. Orbital's sound world is universal.
One more vote for an hour-long version of this!
What's amazing to me about this video is how this guy can walk around and noodle on something...and make every one of these synths sound like orbital. I have some of these synths and none of them sound like orbital when I play them.

Pre programmed, as he mentioned they are preparing a live set.
Is an art.

He reaches for the oscillators, because he’s most interested in creating new sounds
Yep. Also for gate time and LFO too! :P
So happy to see Orbital being featured. Thank you 🙏
In the same way Squarepusher is slowly morphing into Bill Bailey, Paul Hartnoll is morphing into Frank Skinner.
hahaha brilliant!
I was thinking that he looks like somebody but couldn't put my finger on it. You're right. Totally!
Too close for comfort!
or Mark Blyth.
Mate this is fuckin crackin me up, haha
Did the camera battery die? Why isn't this an hour long video?!
think he fried mic in camera after this white beast come up to the game
Maybe Paul is just a bit VERY busy to spend so many time for fun.
Grammar is not to the right before a talking of wrong turn, make superblast with farts is happy three days and not hevaier than before
AKA you fail
@@mvoproject good boid wasnt criticizing, he was trying to say the vid was too good to only be 12 minutes... in other words.. shut up..
Seriously!
There’s so much to love in this video. Orbital is an old favorite. Paul is is cool. And lovely synths.
Hearing and seeing these guys late nite on tv was a big part growing up in the 90s, dialing into unknown BBS's as "The Box" played on 'AMP' in the background. An incredibly huge influence alongside The Orb, Underworld, Prodigy, Fluke, Meat Beat Manifesto, etc. Made British music cool again.
This is ace- always nice to see Paul talk through the synths. This is like a masterclass in sound design and creation.
I think I've watched this video like 100 times. Never gets old!
Paul just keeps giving.
Listening to Pros display their equipment and what they love about it and how they use it is a blessing!
I have a very similar studio set up, it has laminate flooring and the walls are painted white. I don't have any of the synths though and possess one lacie drive. I also have a MacBook running Ableton Live, so close...very close.
Ableton Live is all you need ;)
Do you have any track to listen? Or just you have the setup?
don't worry about it you can pretty do everything these guys can in ableton without the thousands of dollar worth of gear lol theyre just gearslutz
Yeah but you don't have a whiteboard.
@@C1c4da yeah, but orbital are cool dudes
Amazing how he’s just fiddling around and I hear Orbital classics coming through. Damn!
Yeah weird how the guy from Orbital preparing a set for Orbital sounds like Orbital
One of my fav musicians ever...love how down to earth and "normal" he is...6.22 is just awesome...this rly should be a n hour long video.
Thanks for the tour and a rundown of the synths - very enjoyable & educational!
When i listen Orbital i think directly >> WipeOut on PlayStation One (PSX), an epic frenzy inertness sci-fi battle racing game !

The sounds I recall when I saw them live. Classics.
What a great bloke. Unique sounds from one of the original purveyors of that whole movement.
Would have loved to have seen more! Like how he builds track or his influences for their modern stuff etc. Thanks for the video none the less 👍
Experienced Orbital live in '99, at a small theater in Worcester, MA. I'll never forget that show, and wish I could see them live again some day.
Just seen them live last night in Exeter
7:20 take a look at the whiteboard to see re-recording scheduled for Halcyon, Chime, Belfast, Lush, Impact and Satan next year. Also remixes of Utah Saints, Aphex Twin, Chemical Brothers, Underworld, Leftfield, Prodigy, David Holmes and two others I can't quite make out. Should be an interesting album.
Shame "Doctor?" seems to have been relegated to the subs bench!

Those Rave Sounds are really great! I love them!!!
Hartnolls neighbours: *shaking walls* oh god, Paul’s doing another interview
Every sound he makes on these is just phenomenal - shows that there is still great ability associated with great electronic music
The gear Paul lists (for my fellow gear nerds):
+ Waldorf Quantum 8-Voice Analog/Digital Hybrid Synthesizer
+ Sequential Prophet X Synth
+ EMS VCS3 Putney Mk1 Analog Modular Synthesizer
+ Arturia MatrixBrute Synth
+ Roland Jupiter-6
+ Sequential Prophet 6
+ Access Virus TI Desktop Synth/Controller

Imagine putting all that MIDI together. 🤯😄
they don't take all this out on the road...just their turntable a pair of earphones...and a load of cd's

@@T4Cification no he doesnt take it all out but a lot of gear is in the live set...alot more than turntables and cds

Superb video! Most illuminating. Thank you for making this & all the epic music, of course.

Almost mint compared to the Minimoog of Moloko.
Saw them in Barcelona's Sonar around 96; can vividly remember how the gig sky rocketed when they introduced the TB303 into the mix. Crowd went mad
It still warrants a mention
The greatest failure of all time. God bless the 303
The 303 is a one trick pony. Everyone knows what it does... square and saw, filter and res. 🤷🏻♂️
6 minutes 14 seconds, I want more of that tune!
Great. Enjoyed very much. Thanks Mr Hartnoll.
I love that HE loves the BS2 as much as I do. Simple, inexpensive, analog monosynth that really punches well above its weight.
The AFX update on that was such a bonus.
I wish it had one extra octave, then it would be no doubts a modern classic.
Thanks for the tour, Paul. You probably don't remember me, but I was the longhaired dude who walked around with you at Lolapalooza '97. I was the friend of Manard's (singer in Tool). Keep on rockin' brother!
Orbital are not "... the classic sound of rave". Orbital don't sound like anything but Orbital and that is their beauty.
I agree Orbital is just simply a great band like Underworld, Meat Beat Manifesto and Coil...
I love MBM. They inspired me to buy my first sampler. Coil? that's some fucked up shit. I respect it but find it a difficult listen most of the time.. I like the Windowpane Minimal Mix

When playing with synths and sequencers I just love those ‘happy accidents’.
"This is the sound we use in Impact..." that bit gave me proper goosebumps. I love how the tuning and everything on all the synths are pretty much instantly recognisable as Orbital.

so glad they're back
Saw them live recently, still do a cracking live show
And here i was, proud of my Roland JD-800.

That's my favorite album but this is my favorite EP.

i like in sides too
He kills it with every synth he touches.
Holy shit! You took the Macbeth on the road with you?? Did you keep a cadre of technicians on your retainer for your entire tours?? I hope you kept these modules packed tightly in weatherproof foam. Did they not have to warm up in cold situations at certain venues? What a high risk!
I do not have the vocabulary to describe how much I love these guys
"You have so many machines, Richard."
Man... that old synth he pulls out at 1:50 is insane. Those tones are beautifully frightening. Nice to see a Bass Station II on the rack! And !?3?! Novation Control XLs? Wow. What a setup.

Interesting fact; the Moog's are a big family and both pronounciations are correct, depending on which branch you speak to.
See, told you it was interesting...
