Kompassion by The Orb

One of the most influential bands of electronic music, who has taken a creative break of almost two years, is back! For the first time, The Orb - a.k.a. Alex Patterson and Thomas Fehlmann - are sailing under the German flag and approaching the sound of Cologne: The A-side featuring 'Cool Harbour' is really hot. Cascades of strings and overdubs, typical of The Orb sound, are merging together thus resulting in a racy shuffle format. With 'Gee Strings' they have examined the microhouse-phenomenon and consider it right. And of course, the ambient aspects are not missing, either. 'Dilmun' is cruising the pop ambient sea, thus closing the circle of the past and future of of chill-out sounds.
