I'm going to buy the place and start it up again. The Orbit is still a very strong "brand" like Kitkat or Virgin and I don't think the previous owners fully appreciated that. It can make punters very happy and earn money at the same time, it just has to be done right.
Please, Please does anyone know this track? ? ? Info bar says "Alternate soundtrack" so dont even know if it is Ben Sims or not. Any help appreciated!!! RIP Orbit48
I Live round the corner from The Orbit. The buildings been empty for about 3 years now . . . isnt it time we got together and restarted this motherfucker?
@munkyfarmer totally agree man, i remember going 10 weeks running. went on my own some times. it was brilliant. put head phones in and crank it up pal :) they dont do clubs like they used to :(
Remember wen Ben Simms first played at the orbit wi surgeon, i just stood watchin him chop it up all night, i was amazed. Never seen any1 wi a natural talent like him. He plays with a jeff mills style but even better, then wen lights came on at the end every1 screamin "ONE MORE" Then out ov nowhere he scratches in 'Basictonal Remake' by surgeon well that was it i just fukcin lost the plot. INTENSE beyond belief
went downhill for its final years open.best times 1992.birthday party joey beltram,sonic sollution live.amazing times.if you were lucky enough to get in.
Come to BOPS in Bradford theres usualy a techno night every month @ The Mill on Preston street. Not as good as The Orbit but still worth it. Open till 6:00 starts at 10:00. Ben Simms is playing on August 1st 08
God this place was the best ever. Used to live for the weekend to get down the Orbit and get seriously messy. Went clubbing all over the country but never went anywhere with the atmosphere of the Orbit. In the days of Sven, Dave Angel etc this place rocked like no other.
used 2 travel all the way to leeds 4 this place from liverpool was worth every mile remeber gettin there an they changed the dress code had to go linen[robbin cloths] in the middle of winter lookin 4 fukin jeans we got some size 36 [had to fit my wizz ass in them]i was a 22 waist]fukin great night though THAT PLACE IS LEDGEND fuk cream m/o/s an all the other so called top clubs THIS PLACE SHITS ALL OVER THEM ANY 1 REMEBER DJ TANITH?
