U.F.Off: The Best of the Orb

Album Review

A brief, 12-track trip through the Orb's singles archive, U.F. Off includes mixes of just about every single from "A Huge Evergrowing Pulsating Brain" through "Toxygene" (though not in strictly chronological order). Singles compilations for electronic artists hardly ever fit the bill for longtime listeners or neophytes, yet this one is put together well and remains a solid addition to any collection. The double-disc version includes additional remixes plus a few unreleased tracks ("Mickey Mars," "Pi").

Orb

The song Little Fluffy Clouds from this album is a blast to lay back in bed and listen to because the girl talking is just :) well why dont u download it. Then the song Blue Room actually makes you feel like the notes are flying past you as if u were running through a tree that they hung in,,, i have definatly listened to this bands songs as much as i have Nirvana's songs. Its a great album to come home to after someone runs into your car and just relax your nerves to... thats what i did :) hehe.

Amazing Compilation of the The Orb's Best Work

The limited-edition version of 'The Best of the Orb' features two discs, but most of the tracks feaured here are still amazing. My favorite tracks are Blue Room, Micky Mars, Perpetual Dawn, and Asylum. This album is a great way to own some of The Orb's most prolific tracks. I also recommend the 'Orbus Terrarum' album.

The group popularized the genre as well, by appearing on the British chart show Top of the Pops and hitting number one in the U.K. with the 1992 album U.F.Orb. Frontman Dr. Alex Paterson's formula was quite simple: he slowed down the rhythms of classic Chicago house and added synth work and effects...
