Queenonline reporting that he is working on more unreleased tracks for a new project ! God help us all !!!!


Dear God no!


Why? Because orbit knows how better than 1/2 the band how to compose and record a proper QUEEN track?


Has the world gone COMPLETELY fucking insane?

"Come tonight! Come see the Overbite! Come to Ogre Battle, FIGHT!"

What’s more, he’s already been asked to work on Queen’s
next project, which will include more previously unheard material.
“They’ve asked me to work on more songs with me, so it can’t be all
bad!” he reveals.
“Queen are where my passion is at the moment and I
have to say, I’m just in love with the music. I’m listening to proper
bands again and I’m really into it. I didn’t even know what classic rock
truly meant until it was explained to me recently.”

Yesss! :)

It isn't stated that all of the tracks on the "next upcoming project" will be presented as Orbit's mixes. Maybe they will limit his role to "producer".
Dear God.
If they ask Mack to produce, I'm sure he would!
Rather him than Orbit.
Mack is not a big enough name anymore. Producers are the new stars.
I find William Orbit to be a fairly egotistical man. He really doesn't care what any Queen fans may think of his work. He knows better than us.
Personally, I've fallen in love with LMIYHA... even the Orbit extended mix... mainly for the rare Queen footage in the vid. TMBMTLTT is pure bobbins though.
Then let's hope that the reissue of FM Solo box will get BM+RT mix of TMBMTLTT and even the unheard John Deacon mix.
The John Deacon mix does not exist
Are you sure inu ? It was rumoured that he did a mix but... it's a shame that a rumour turned out to be only a rumour :(.

Orbit has been asked about a loudness on the final mix (official cd version) of TMBMTLTT how would you interpret his answer ? https://twitter.com/TheDutchOwner4U/status/531494509520363521


PS!!. Some interesting info from Brian @23:00 of working back in the day with Freddie on Let Me In Your Heart Again: http://www.inthestudio.net/redbeards-blog/queen-forever-brian-may-roger-taylor/
Yes, I am sure. I directly asked Greg Brooks about this several years ago.
Greg confirmed lots of things in the past that turned out to be untrue, either because he wasn't being straight or was simply mistaken as his work in the archives wasn't complete or wasn't thorough. Only 18 months ago official word was that no live version of Fairy Fellers Master Stroke existed.

The Deacon mix may not exist, but Greg's word is not definitive final proof.

Would you like me to ask him again, just to be absolutely sure? It HAS been years and they've had time by now to go through just about everything in the archives.
It would be great to ask the question again whilst the tracks is back in the public eye with the re-release.

I suppose there are two questions; does this mix exist in the Queen archives, and also if it isn't in the archives is it possible that it exists outside the archive ?
