Orbital 'Orbital (The Brown Album)' 2LP reissue
Orbital - 'Orbital (The Brown Album)’ 140g black vinyl 2LP reissue.
Originally released in 1993, the ‘Brown Album‘ defied expectations and had a significant genre and cultural impact - showcasing the duo's scope and ambition. It was also met with widespread critical acclaim upon release, with NME awarding it 9/10 in their review, and it was chosen as one of Mixmag’s “best albums of all time”. The album's blend of diverse influences and its rejection of conventional norms helped to solidify Orbital's reputation as The Godfathers Of Rave, expanding the horizons of electronic music beyond local DJ nights.
Standout track, ‘Halcyon + On + On’, became an instant classic, known for its ethereal atmosphere and haunting vocal sample from Opus III’s ‘It’s a Fine Day’. The track’s dreamy progression and uplifting yet melancholic tone made it a staple in film soundtracks and DJ sets, embodying the emotional depth electronic music could achieve. The album also includes ‘Impact (The Earth Is Burning)’ - another defining moment, and ‘Lush 3-1’ and ‘Lush 3-2’.
Reissued on vinyl for the first time in a decade, ‘The Brown Album’ has been cut at half speed, to ensure maximum audio fidelity for this landmark release.
