I see your point, i have The Dream album, and yes The Dream has some good stuff but i do think it was somewhat artificial souding. I know, it is all very subjective.. ;-) So let's see what the new one will sound like.
Concerning the longer pieces, yes i would rather have 5 long pieces on an album then 12 short scrappy "songs".

Ramon.....did you even listen to The Dream? That was
the combination. Youth and Steve Hillage on one track? That hasn't
happened since System 7 to my knowledge. "The Dream" was the best Orb
album since Orbus in my opinion. It was a progression too.
I can
see your point that there wasn't any "longer" pieces that go on and
on.......which The Orb have done before, but I wouldn't mind another double
album like the first one (2 hours), so they could get more songs and longer
mixes onto the discs. I'm sure the record labels don’t want a to have to
charge for a double album though. My two cents....

I am very interested in what the sound will be for the next
album. Hopefully not so damn dancy crappy as the last one (IMO ;-) ). It is
time for the UForb sound again! Spacey guitars, some sparse synths and thick
basslines, thats the combination!
Apparently, this was originally just David
jamming with Youth. I guess somewhere after the jam sessions, Youth and/or
LX felt it should be an Orb project. I think when it started, David
Gilmour was un-aware that it would be an Orb album in particular. It
sounds like none of them did. Or maybe that's just what they
want us to think.
