Enter The Kettle is the second album on Alex Patersons new label Orbscure.Its primarily a duo LP with him and old friend Fil Le Gonidec, who together are OSS.OSS have played at Glastonbury, Fuji Rock, supported Kraftwerk and played chess with Robbie Williams, who also stole their speed.They were originally known as Orb Sound System a half DJ/half live version of The Orb, which could gig more nimbly than the main machine. Early shows saw reggae- heavy selections and sometimes featured toasters, but seeing as they never actually had a soundsystem, cant play out at the moment and have made a record its currently just OSS, which now stands for On Sum Shit.The artwork is an alchemists kettle painted by Martin Grover.The sleeve design is by Mike Coles.The logo is by Simon G.Always keen to collaborate, ever prolific, and with his creativity as flowing as ever, Orbscure Recordings is a new vehicle for Patersons impressive quantity of output in different groups which runs parallel to his continued music within The Orb. Set up under the Cooking Vinyl umbrella at the suggestion of label head Rob Collins, Orbscure will also be an outlet for new music from artists from around the world. The name is a play on the Obscure label Eno set up on Editions EG in the 1970s. Orbs Cure. Clever parrot-Orbscure! Orbscure! Orbs Cure for all ills. Orbs Cure made 2 chill, states Alex.Having helmed the Orb collective for over 30 years, releasing music on other peoples labels in partnership with various label managers/ARs, Alex now finds himself in the driving seat, coordinating an even wider group of talent. Picking up from his past experience as an AR for the legendary EG Records, there is already a raft of new releases in the pipeline with three albums set for release this year. The label will feature artists from Uganda, Kenya, Argentina, Japan and America with further collaborative projects to follow.(Northside)1 Whippersnapper2 No Speed Limit3 Digital Bicycle Clips( Southside )4 Wow Picasso5 Disco Bombing6 Delta River(Bonus Tracks)7 Bad Bochm8 Strong Mans Variations Of A Camel PartyIntro - Roney FMUnknowable - Sedibus Wow Picasso! - OSSHome - Chocolate Hills Squirrels In Jumpsuits - Roland Albert Shika - MaweLatchmere Allotments The OrbAmerica Is Unavailable - Transit KingsTurn Right - Cripps Said MasonThe Librarian - DF TramFara - Nick NeutronzHere For Beer - High Frequency Bandwidth
