i don't know why in this period i like orb's music so
much.i have
orb's adventures...
uf orb
pomme fritz
orbus terrarum
orblivion
and i like all of them.it's true they sound really dated yet
i appreciate the fact they didn't follow the musical trends
of the last years,but they maintained their own style
my personal top 10 is(not in order)
montagne d'or
white river junction
occidental
little fluffy clouds
ubiquity
a huge evergowing pulsation...
pomme fritz
uf orb
towers of dub
we're pastie to be grill you

No big deal. I prefer Aphex Twin's earlier stuff.

Agreed with riccardo: The Orb was definitely a square peg
in a round hole, but that's what gave them their charm...

I have...nah, not enough time to list it all. Suffice to
say, I'm a collector of their work...

BadOrb is dead, BTW. They ran out of money, and future Orb
material will be released on another label...

In short, The Orb is to the "ambient house" movement as
Aphex was to turning "techno" conventions on their ear...

Classic. :D
