KOLOROWE WINYLE (SPLATTERED VINYL)
OPAKOWANIE: GATEFOLD / DRUKOWANE WEWNĘTRZNE KOPERTY

Nowa, zremasterowana edycja klasycznego debiutu Orbital (od lat niedostępnego na winylu)!

Pierwotnie wydany 30 września 1991 roku, debiutancki album Orbital stał się znany jako „The Green Album”, aby odróżnić go od ich drugiego albumu (znanego jako „The Brown Album”). The Green Album zawiera przełomowy „Belfast” oraz koncertową wersję „Chime”, klasycznego już utworu tanecznego, który zapoczątkował ich karierę w 1990 roku.

Following on from the UK Top 20 success of 2022's 30 Something, and the Top 10 for 2023's Optical Delusion, London Records launch an extensive 2024 campaign for Orbital, revisiting 1991's seminal debut Orbital (aka The Green Album).

The Green Album heralded a brave new world for the UK musical landscape (DJ Mag would later decry that the album "rewrote the rule book for rave"). Brothers Paul and Phil Hartnoll eschewed formulas and clichés, choosing to explore wider textures, rhythms and stranger mind spaces within dance music. Their resulting album would enjoy both chart success and an enduring legacy, influencing and inspiring artists from Björk to Bicep, with the Hartnoll brothers going on to collaborate with artists as diverse as Madonna, Ennio Morricone, Kraftwerk, Sleaford Mods and Professor Brian Cox.

33 years since its original release the album is revisited, from black vinyl , limited colored vinyl and CD editions (long out of print), to special Record Store Day double Splatter Lp. In the digital space 'Tonight In Belfast' will be lauched on February 2nd, :a reworking of the band's seminal track 'Belfast', remixed by David Holmes and re-interpolated with new lyrics and vocal by acclaimed street poet Mike Garry.

Orbital will be supporting The Green Album with an extensive headline UK tour this April (performing both their Green and Brown albums). Ahead of that they've just been announced today for Coachella 2024, as well as Miami's Ultra Festival and headline shows in New York and Chicago.
