Orb Orb: History Of The Future CD

Two CD Edition. 2013 collection that gathers together the very best of the band's trailblazing output during that heady post-acid decade that saw (Dr) Alex Paterson and his cohorts pushing at the very boundaries of what dance music could be... from Dub to Ambient, big beats, mass raving, cheeky sampling and virtually every other aspect of DJ culture. Kicking off with Alex Paterson and Jimmy Cauty's legendary mix of the timeless 'A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld', Disc One gathers together all of the band's singles from the period, and includes the landmarks 'Oxygen', 'Blue Room and the inimitable 'Little Fluffy Clouds'. Disc Two rounds up the really juicy remixes and rarities from the period, including the previously unreleased 'Majestic' and 'Close Encounters' many of these have been hard-to-find for nigh-on two decades.
