I am
saddened at the comments made in the review, I gave up on the orb after I heard
a copy of Orblivian. It sounded like someone had been left with a bucket full of
samples and vaguely remembered how to make weird noises with some equipment and
was greatly relieved when a few of his mates agreed to prop up the ORB name so
as not to get in trouble with Island with whom he'd just
signed.
anyway, to read "sexy
and minimal for the ladies" as comments about the band that dropped such
luscious samples as the "there were always men, who would fight to protect there
[mystical fears] [dreams]" on the first album and billions of clever stuff like
that, I truly think that the orb have lost the plot.

6.99 alex patterson and thomas
fehlmann reunite with one tasty piece of static, luscious tonal float for the
armchair massive, while the rest of the twelve has a stepping, dubbed-up slant
on dance music. sexy and minimal for the ladies, retaining the quintessential
kompakt house feel with edits and a motoring bassline. equal parts 2-step and
dubwise and working here to update the orb machine
