Orbvs Terrarvm

Search: Slug Dub
by: The Orb

Release Date June 23, 2008
One of the most significant ambient albums of the nineties, Orbus Terrarum represents a journey across a landscape in the form of sound, with each track signifying a different terrain feature. The journey begins in the lush, dense ravine of 'Valley', with it's heavy rolling bass, gradually rising up into the airy, open spaces of 'Plateau', before descending again into the aquatic chimes of 'Oxbow Lakes'. The 'landscape as sound' theme is seemingly abandoned toward the end of the album, with an epic dub workout, 'Slug Dub', instead providing the finale, with humourous, if slightly sinister samples of a childrens' story about lettuce being eaten by 'nasty' slugs. Quite different from all the Orb's other albums, but definitely a classic.

Orbus Terrarum

Search: Slug Dub
by: Orb

Release Date March 16, 1995
God I remember having some fun to this album. If you wanted to summarise it in a nutshell, I think swirling psychedelic ambience would just about cover it. Lets just say that this album helped The Orb draw a line under their ambient house past and embark on a new era of electronic experimentation.

Listening to the album is like going on a proper journey, as the title suggests, this is the many continents and cultures of the land of Orb. After a night of 'alternative' fun at university I found myself semi-conscious listening to this. I really felt like I was being taken on a journey by The Orb. Sometimes the music is comforting, like being submerged in a comforting sphere of warm water, like when the echoing pianos of Oxbow Lakes wash around you, ... Read More:
