Space Music
The Orb is heavily influenced by Pink Floyd, and it's easy to see why. This album seems to live in it's own world, like Dark Side of The Moon; it easily conveys the space and peaceful darkness of space that Us and Them conveys. It is very easy...

A "trip" indeed!
This is easily one of the most influental albums in electronica. It is of course, a classic of the genre (Ambient House/ Dub). One thing that people seem to miss is that the album is not just a journey in the figurative sense, but also...

Though uneven and definitely not for everyone, "Adventures" is an influential album that ambient fans will love
The Orb's "Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld" was essentially one of if not THE first ambient house album (it at least inspired other artists and (somewhat) popularized the genre - "Little Fluffy Clouds" is a very appealing track). It is,...

The start of something new......
This album created a movement thats been slowly evolving ever since. Comparable to Future Sound of London's 'Lifeforms' or 'Dead Cities' this journey into musical bliss is layered with beautiful yet strange samples and textures found only in a...

The Chopped-up Single-disc Version
For some weird reason, record companies have just assumed that British and American audiences are so different, that even the way music is packaged must be differently. This is why Beatles' albums were first released in the US with single tracks...

A "Trip" Through the Universe
The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Underworld may officially be called techno, but it's hardly dance music. This is techno as filtered through a 70's haze of Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream. Pothead pixies Gong are another influence, and former...

A good album from electronica's best days.
The Orb weren't the first techno band, but they were techno's first major artistic success. Their predecessors confined themselves to the dancefloor, and released their work on the twelve-inch singles most suitable for that realm. The Orb,...
