"Special Construction" was released on Afro Art wave one (the first wave was
the one with the Tom Hingston graphics with the xeroxed A and A logo and the
second wave was the new one with the plain font logo and the rugged M.A.S.H.
style font). Interestingly enough, this record wasn't Orin's best but it
was really awesome for one reason. The Black Science Orchestra remix, that
shit is hot! Fe real! Really nice and beautiful! I'm going to give it
another quick listen though to be sure... I'll get back!
"Code Breaker/Proximity Mind" was another interesting movement by Orin.
This one was a experiment at the beat lab. Originally released on Satori
which Jim Ingle set up through R&S Records and was previously to be
Afronaught's home. Kind of interesting, "Code Breaker" was a downbeat beat
trip nothing really special like the newer things. "Proximity Mind" was
sort of an early staged Neon Phusion. You could tell the beats were a
brewing. But again only for the BITA purist.
> also, if anyone has a full list of Orin's remixes, I'd love to see that too--
Oh man, that could go on for a few pages. Orin used to own Mousetrap and
one other label (I think Monkey Fruit, can't remember) so he did some
productions on that. He also was affiliated with Phil Asher as P.O.W.A.
(Phil Orin Walters Asher) and as Blak N Spanish (remixes for Todd Terry and
a few others).
