Camp
Fucking
Bisco
2006!
The Orchard Lounge crew were invited back to play 3 sets at Camp Bisco 5 which was so uch fun. Camp Bisco V was held at Hunter Mountain in NY and we were lucky enough to be on the bill with The Disco Biscuits, The Roots, RJD2, Juan Maclean, Thievery Corporation, Shpongle, New Deal, Brothers Past, Future Rock, and MANY MANY more. These are artists we have looked up to for years so it was just amazing to share the stage with them.
The three sets we played were all of the downtempo>midtempo variety and layered with samples. We played all new music so it was a blast spinning for so many people and to hang out with so many friends from around the country.
Here are the links to download mp3's of the sets. The audio was remastered by Rich Steele who is a sound master. The first part was Ben and then Bethany. The second set was Ben Silver solo. LOTS of samples and loops done on the fly during the sets. Check them out:

Video of the 4pm set is on Youtube in 4 parts:

VIDEO OF Ben Silver/Orchard Lounge set 2 This is just a compressed version so fast download. Once I have all of the audio I will overlay the audio over the video of the whole weekend and make a DVD (for fun)
The festival was a massive success and 5500-7000 people were there. GREAT TIME!
Cheers
